The most powerful thieves in the law: list

Almost every modern person understands who thieves are in law. A list of such people was published publicly a dozen times, but many people know too little about who these people represented and represent, and how they came to this.

Gennady Alexandrovich Karkov (Mongol)

First of all it is worth noting Gennady Alexandrovich Karkov, who is one of those with whom these same thieves went in law (he opens the list for this very reason). Known in his time, a criminal named Mongol is one of the pioneers of the underworld of our days.

For the first time in prison, Mongol sat at the age of 30 for committing a theft. After that, he tried to work in an ordinary construction organization, which quickly bored him, and subsequently he sent his forces exclusively to criminal fishing. Karkov stood out among other criminals with sharpness, independence, ingenuity, and also sharpness in almost all situations. All the actions they have almost always carried out personally, for which he was especially venerated by other thieves in the law. The list of thieves in the law, he also opens for the reason that one of the main people in his gang was Vyacheslav Ivankov, better known to modern citizens of the post-Soviet space named Yaponchik, and one of the versions of the appearance of this nickname is exactly what Mongol himself called him .

The main activity of his gang was the commission of robbery attacks on apartments belonging to high-ranking officials, it should be noted that in the majority of cases the victims were not even going to contact the police, because for some reason they hid the origin of the stolen items.

In the process of carrying out its activities, the gang was characterized by excessive cruelty, and if someone refused to voluntarily give money, he was taken to the forest and brutally tortured. It should be noted that the sophisticated torture of this gang was not only physical, but also psychological. For example, some people were buried alive in a coffin and were taken to saw with a hacksaw, so people told all the necessary information.

The attitude of other thieves to Karkov

It is worth noting that at the time of the crime Karkov's actions represented a direct violation of the thieves' law, and later it became customary to call it "racketeering". In the course of time (around the end of the 1970s) at the meeting in Kislovodsk, a decision was made that it was still possible to engage in a racket, and as a result, capital gradually began to integrate more and more with the criminal environment, that is, in the final Finally, the initiators of this idea were themselves thieves in law. The list of all the people who were present there was not published.

In the 90's, the fate of Mongolia was extremely successful for him, as he began to look simultaneously for several areas of the capital and was able to buy a house in France. However, he soon became ill with cancer and died in 1994.

Vyacheslav Kirillovich Ivankov (Japanese)

One of the most famous criminals, who is also the leader of the criminal clan of Moscow, is Vyacheslav Ivankov. The nickname "Japonka" went to him from the teacher of Mongolia, and he received it for his characteristic slanting eyes.

Early life

In his childhood Ivankov enrolled in a circus school and began to actively pursue aerial gymnastics, achieving good results. However, on one of the trainings, a misfortune occurred - he fell from the trapezoid, resulting in a closed trauma to the skull. It is worth noting the fact that he never addressed this in any medical institutions, even though in certain situations it reached the state of fainting.

Criminal life

Like Mongolia, for the first time Ivankov was prosecuted for the case of pocket theft, and at the time of his arrest he behaved so aggressively that psychiatrists determined he had a chronic mental illness in the form of schizophrenia and insanity. Right after he recognized his diagnosis, he preferred to change his behavior dramatically - he began to actively communicate with others, was carried away by board games, etc. The list of Russian thieves in the Law he would hardly have replenished if he had remained with such a diagnosis, but eventually the doctors reported that he had suffered a psychosis.

After Japonchik for a long time was one of the most influential people in the Mongol gang, he created his own grouping, which, in fact, dealt with practically the same. Under the guise of police officers, members of the gang started searches of those people who lived on "unearned" income, as a result of which they took absolutely everything out of the dwelling. At the same time, cases of exporting victims to the forest were periodically practiced, followed by torture, during which other values were extorted from money. After the group joined such famous criminals as Sliva and Asaf, she began to "work" throughout the Soviet Union, and in each region the gang left a fairly large number of corpses.

Arbitrator

It is worth noting the fact that very many cultural figures, including Alexander Rosenbaum and Joseph Kobzon, petitioned to achieve the release of Jap in 1991. For a long time he stayed after that on the territory of Europe and the United States, but then he was extradited to Russia, where the prosecutor's office brought him the case of the murder of Turkish businessmen. However, this case completely disintegrated by 2005.

After the justification, Ivankov said that in the future he was not going to return to any criminal quarrels, but at the same time, living abroad, he constantly appeared as a kind of "arbitrator" in the process of disputes between different groups. In particular, he decided to take part in the famous conflict that occurred between the most influential clans of his time - the clan of Tariel Oniani and Aslan Usoyan (better known as Ded Hasan).

Death

In 2009, an attempt was made on Japonchik, which was a shelling during the release of the criminal authority from a restaurant called "Thai Elephant", where he was seriously injured. Practically for a month the doctors tried to cure him, however, despite all the efforts, he perished from peritonitis, and did not recover from the injured.

Aslan Rashidovich Usoyan (Ded Hasan)

Aslan Usoyan is one of the most well-known criminals who has spread his influence practically to the entire territory of the post-Soviet space, and in particular, personally supervising the affairs that the Rostov thieves led in law (the list also consisted mainly of the people of Hasan). It is due to this wide influence that he gained great popularity in the territory of the post-Soviet space. They were appointed a large number of leaders in various cities, and, by the way, this includes thieves in law in Omsk, whose list was headed by the man Usoyan. This can be noted in almost every region of Russia.

An interesting case is the discord between Khasan and the Oganov brothers, as a result of which, fearing for his life, he decided to go south, despite the fact that many thieves in the law of the Rostov region worked with him, the list of which in many respects consisted of such people.

At one time, the criminal clan of Grandfather Hassan was one of the most powerful in Russia, despite the fact that he took part in a fairly large number of major criminal wars. In particular, under his patronage were many well-known criminals and even Krasnodar thieves in the law, whose list was often headed by Vadik Krasnodarsky. In 2010, he was seriously wounded, but not fatal, but already in 2013, Usoyan died of a sniper shot.

War with the Tarot Clan

The most famous conflict for many modern people is the war with the clan of Tariel Oniani (Taro), which occurred because of the division of the largest business empire in Russia and Western Europe, which followed the arrest of Zacharias Kalashov, nicknamed "Shakro Young."

Initially, the resistance consisted in assembling gatherings involving people heading the list of the most influential thieves in the law. Their location was sought by every clan. In addition, both factions were actively recruiting new supporters.

One of the first to suffer from this conflict was the restaurateur Gela Tsertsvadze, who was considered Taro's right hand and ran the legal business of Oniani. After this, a number of murders of criminal authorities occurred. At the same time, it should be noted that the full list of thieves in the law spread not only to the territory of Russia, so murders also occurred in other countries, including Greece and Spain.

The decisive in this conflict was an attempt on Yaponchik, after which Usoyan was able to convince all the thieves community of the involvement of Tarot people in this, and also became the organizer of the letter, which was signed by the majority of famous lawyers and testified to Oniani's death sentence.

Death

On January 16, 2013, Grandfather Hasan went into the courtyard of the restaurant called "Old Phaethon", after which he almost immediately shot a shot at his head. After that, he was taken to the ambulance, but could not save him - he died in intensive care at the Botkin Hospital. Some sources say that his death occurred on the way to the hospital.

Despite the fact that many criminal authorities wanted to bury him in the prestigious Vagankovskoye cemetery, eventually it was decided to fulfill the will of Usoyan and bury him next to his brother and mother in Tbilisi.
