From January 1 to 11, there will be almost no news, and you’ll have nothing to read on the internet.
Yes, yes, I know everyone is planning cheerful snowball fights, building a snowman, mulled wine in a steaming mug, a thick sweater with reindeer on it, and that, in general, your New Year will look like this. But if, by some chance (hard as it is even to imagine), on the 1st you’re just finishing off your New Year’s Olivier salad (a traditional Russian potato salad), then realize there’s nothing to watch on TV and go online, here are a few stories from the ACF about what we did in 2015.
If you missed them, now you’ll find out; and if you already knew, it won’t hurt to read them again:
The story of Senator Sablin’s assets. Georgy Alburov first exposed this prominent “Anti-Maidan” activist. He started lying in his own defense, so we exposed him a second time. Now Sablin has sued me, demanding compensation for emotional distress.
Commuter trains. The ACF explained to everyone how their fares are set.
Fetisov. From the very beginning, this was an ideal case, but then it got even better: Senator Fetisov, unwilling to leave office, started right before our eyes transferring his offshore companies to his father.
Putin’s palace. We explained who its builders and managers really work for.
“Hacker” “Hell”: how we got his case to court and won it.
ACF’s St. Petersburg team exposed an entire mafia clan inside the local municipal government.
We found that Deputy Prime Minister Igor Shuvalov owns an apartment in a luxury building in central London worth 688 million rubles.
A delightful trilogy: Peskov’s watch. Peskov’s yacht. Peskov’s house.
The Zubkovs. The Serdyukovs. These people’s estates outside St. Petersburg keep expanding.
Lyuba Sobol explained how money is siphoned off at the Vostochny Cosmodrome.
Georgy Alburov exposed Shoigu and caused quite a stir.
And, of course, Chaika.
