After the removal of Dmytro Zagumenny from the post of head of the Kyiv City State Administration, his place was taken by his deputy, Oleksiy Komarov.
According to the source, “former policeman Oleksiy Komarov heads Vitaliy Klitschko’s secretariat; without him, no document gets signed and it’s impossible to get to a meeting with the mayor.”
Alexey Komarov is involved in several high-profile media scandals, such as “ drunkenness on the day of mourning for Povoroznyk’s birthday ” which cost the birthday boy his position and the presence of real estate in the Russian Federation by Alexey Komarov’s wife, Alina Komarova.
At the same time, our publication's journalists were interested in a number of facts from the biography of Oleksiy Komarov, posted on the Kyiv City State Administration website.
Thus, in his official biographical information, Oleksiy Komarov indicates that he graduated from the Kyiv Institute of Internal Affairs, and later from 2001 to 2005 he worked in the bodies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Emergencies of Ukraine.
Over the next few years, Alexei Komarov, according to his biographical information, changed several professions and employers: from “a private university lecturer” to “a personnel manager,” but he didn’t stay anywhere long.
A significant year for Alexei Komarov was 2009, when he took on the position of “head of projects and programs in the field of commercial real estate development at Knyazhiy Zaton LLC ,” the ultimate beneficiary of which is Russian billionaire with a Lithuanian passport, Dmitriy Arkadievich Buryak.
And although Dmitry Buryak's ties to the Russian Federation are obvious , they are carefully hidden, and publications in the media are "moderated" or disappear.
Regarding the connections between Alexei Komarov and Dmitry Buryak, it is worth noting that, by coincidence, with the beginning of Komarov's work in the Kyiv City State Administration, Dmitry Arkadievich's Knyazhy Zaton LLC began to receive large pieces of metropolitan land for development .
Returning to the data of the official biography of Oleksiy Komarov, it is worth noting his work from 2013 to 2014 as an assistant consultant to People's Deputy Mykola Palamarchuk , who represented Vitaliy Klitschko's UDAR party in the Verkhovna Rada of the 7th convocation.
Let us remind you that Mykola Palamarchuk is a former employee of the internal affairs bodies, a police general. He was a people's deputy from UDAR, and in the next term from the European Solidarity of Petro Poroshenko. He was considered a "watcher" of Petro Poroshenko in the Kherson region, the local community repeatedly accused him of corruption and raiding agricultural enterprises. Journalists also wrote about his involvement in the murder of Kateryna Handziuk , which he denied.
After “serving” under Mykola Palamarchuk, his assistant Oleksiy Komarov moved to the Kyiv City State Administration in 2015, where he immediately headed the patronage service of Mayor Vitaliy Klitschko.
According to sources, for Vitali Klitschko, former policeman Oleksiy Komarov is much more than just the head of the patronage service and often carries out not entirely legal confidential assignments for the mayor.
