And don't collude
The Ufa municipal administration and business owner Damir Muginovintend, via the arbitration courts, to exonerate themselves from suspicion involving concerted action, whereby Mr. Muginov received a plot of land for 15 million rubles on Zorge Street that he, in turn, resold for 140 million rubles. The Federal Antimonopoly Service of the Russian Federation declared the mayor’s office and Damir Muginov participants in this act of collusion in June. If the authority’s ruling enters into force, the parties to this unlawful agreement will pay major fines, and this raises the specter of disqualification for bureaucrats in the mayor’s office.
