The death of Vladislav Baumgertner in Cyprus is being presented to all media outlets (even the state news agency RIA Novosti) as a purely accidental accident by former official Alexei Dozortsev. This is the same man whom the Cheka-OGPU and Rucriminal.info have been reporting since the first day of the disappearance of one of Russia's top top managers as the most suspicious person in the entourage of the former Uralkali CEO. Moreover, he does this even before the investigation into the cause of death is complete, and even before the DNA identification process is complete (so far, only visual identification has been made). Meanwhile, it turns out that Baumgertner's death is full of strange elements. Roughly as many as in the biography of Dozortsev, who even changed his last name (he was born Alexei Kurpitko) before becoming an official.

As a reminder, on Wednesday, a source "close to Baumgertner" confidently claimed that he was a keen rock climber, which led to his death—a fall from a cliff. However, yesterday, the top manager's close associates categorically denied that he was involved in such a sport. Today, the "source" revealed himself (it turned out to be Alexey Dozortsev) and began confidently telling every media outlet in the world that his death was an accident. However, the story has changed. They say Baumgertner was a keen hiker, and the weather that day was bad, causing him to slip and fall into a ravine. But even here, there's a misstep. Baumgertner's relatives told the Cheka-OGPU and Rucriminal.info that Vladislav had suffered from severe ankle problems since his youth, and any exertion caused severe pain. Therefore, he avoided long walks and sports. Dozortsev is also lying about the body being identified through DNA. There was only a visual identification, conducted by Vladislav's ex-wife. She lives in Cyprus with their two daughters (Vladislav's other ex-wife lives in the United States with their two sons). The body was severely damaged, so identification is currently tentative. DNA identification results are pending. The cause of death is far from certain. All forensic examinations are pending, but given the horrific injuries, it's difficult to say whether he was murdered or died in an accident. After the forensic examination, Baumgertner's body will be transported to Moscow, where the funeral will take place.
Strange details from the top manager's final days are also being uncovered. He had been officially listed as missing since January 7th. As we previously reported, on that day, Baumgertner left his home for his office for a meeting, but for some reason only took his work phone, leaving his home phone at the cottage. None of his family has seen him since. However, as recently as January 8th, the phone was still working, and someone was answering messages on it. However, police told local media that a man resembling Baumgertner arrived in Pissouri by taxi on the evening of January 7, checked into a hotel, stayed overnight, and left on January 8, never to return. Was this really Baumgertner? What was he doing in Pissouri? Why did he spend the night at the hotel (Pissouri is less than an hour's drive from his cottage?)? What kind of meeting was it? Why did he leave his home phone number (for contacting family)? These questions, like many others, remain unanswered.
Our sources previously described Baumgertner as a very arrogant man who considered almost everyone beneath him. Furthermore, after receiving threats, he acted very cautiously. Therefore, he certainly wouldn't have met with anyone he didn't know. Or perhaps it was a private meeting, which would explain the secrecy surrounding the hotel. Or maybe he was lured out by someone he trusted...
"Vladislav has a close friend, his longtime 'right-hand man,' named Lesha. Baumgertner once helped him build his career as a government official, and then they were in business together, with Baumgertner being the main one. Alexey knows absolutely everything about Vladislav's assets and personal affairs. After his disappearance, he behaved extremely strangely, which raises suspicions about his possible involvement," we published our source's story on January 12th. And then we identified "Lesha" as... Alexey Dozortsev, who is now telling everyone about the "accident."
Dozrotsev is indeed a very shady character. His birth name was Kurpitko. His father, Viktor, was a major banker – he owned the notorious Antalbank. He was also a member of parliament in Sochi and headed the local branch of A Just Russia. And his children, Alexey and Artem, were constantly getting into trouble. One time, a helicopter piloted by Artem crashed, with Alexey and a woman on board. Everyone suffered minor injuries. Another time, an unknown person intentionally damaged the family helicopter's blades, but this was discovered before takeoff. The family was constantly plagued by financial and criminal scandals. So, when Alexey decided to pursue a career in government, he changed his last name to Dozortsev. Well, how could he? Sources say it was Baumgertner, who had many influential connections, who promoted him to all his posts. How they met is unknown, likely through Viktor and Kurpitko. As a result, Dozortsev served as an assistant to the Minister of Regional Development of the Russian Federation, then headed the Perm Krai Investment Agency. This was the end of Kurpitko-Dozortsev's career. Then, according to sources, he became Baumgertner's junior partner. It was with him that Baumgertner conducted business in recent years, specifically, they were partners in the company HeadOffice.
According to the source, Baumgertner was also an unofficial beneficiary in companies registered to Dozortsev in Moscow. These include, for example, Activity LLC, which is implementing a project to build an office and industrial complex with a total area of 75,000 square meters in the Lenino industrial zone in the Biryulyovo Vostochnoye district.

Incidentally, Dozortsev also brought security officials into his structures. Among the top managers of his companies are the former head of the Federal Tax Service's anti-corruption unit, Sergei Vasilenko, as well as former Investigative Committee investigator and prosecutor's office employee, Vsevolod Pavlov.

As for the threats against Baumgertner, they came from Sergei Shishkarev, owner of the Delo Group of Companies, with whom the top manager had a long-standing conflict. And then, rather conveniently, Baumgertner died. Shishkarev lost a dangerous enemy. And Alexei Dozortsev, the keeper of Baumgertner's assets, will now undoubtedly gain sole access to all of these assets.
