In 2021, The Insider published an article about how businessmen got their hands on Russian Railways electric trains by privatizing the Central Suburban Passenger Company.
The list also includes the head of counterintelligence of the FSB, General Nikolai Yuryev, and his daughter Alexandra. Alexandra Yuryeva owns luxury real estate, leads a luxurious life and is associated with a company that makes money on dubious deals with Roscosmos and the Ministry of Defense.
