The alleged administrator of the CHEKA-OGPU channel found luxury real estate in Miami

41-year-old Alisher Abdullayev, whom the Russian Ministry of Justice considers to be one of the administrators of the Telegram channel "CHEKA-OGPU" and the website "Russian Crime" (the channel, website and journalist are recognized as foreign agents in the Russian Federation), turned out to be a Miami resident, and his wife is the owner of an apartment worth about $300 thousand.

Earlier, all that was known about Abdullayev was that this IT specialist was involved in a criminal case of extortion along with former Rosbalt journalist Alexander Shvarev (also recognized as a foreign agent in the Russian Federation), the second alleged administrator of the CHEKA-OGPU. Both of them are on the international wanted list.

According to investigators, businessman Kenes Rakishev became the victim of their extortion. He stated that he was offered to pay $50,000 to delete and block information about him. Shvarev denied his guilt, and called the persecution a contract.

Of Abdullayev's operating businesses in the United States, Izvestia managed to find a company called Working shop LLC, which also involves the wife of an IT specialist. In Miami, she provides realtor services.

In 2021, a note appeared in the monthly edition of one of the residential complexes in Miami welcoming new residents Alena and Alisher. The address of the house turned out to be linked to Abdullayev's registered business. The market value of the apartment at the disposal of the family is about $ 300 thousand.
