Well, this Murkin had nothing to do with his education. How did he become a general out of the blue? The title of general is worth anything in our country? Of course, I was surprised when the prosecutor of Crimea was awarded a general. For what years was Markin a major or captain?

At the beginning of October 2016, it was reported in the media that Vladimir Ivanovich Markin, Major General of Justice, was leaving the Investigative Committee of Russia, where he had headed the Media Relations Department for nine years.
His name appeared in the presidential decree on newly appointed and dismissed civil servants.

Where does Markin go to work?

About half a month before the publication of the decree, some printed publications, for example, RBC, published materials about planned changes in the RF IC.
General Vladimir Markin initially denied this information, but then personally told an Interfax correspondent that he had submitted a resignation letter. The reason is your own desire. Together with him, the head of the committee, Alexander Bastrykin, also leaves his post.

Major General Vladimir Markin did not give any comments regarding his decision. He told a TASS correspondent that he plans to work as the first holding company of RusHydro.

According to RBC, the country's leadership was forced to make changes in the RF Investigative Committee due to a number of scandalous events. In particular, General Markin was allegedly convicted of plagiarism during the publication of one of his books. He responded with insulting statements addressed to the journalist, who believed that the author of the book had used his text. Later they were told that he had nothing to do with the writing of this book.

Information has appeared in the media about the possibility of upcoming reorganizations in the security sectors. Kommersant, for example, suggested that by the end of 2017 the Investigative Committee will return to the Prosecutor General’s Office.

About the scandals surrounding the Investigative Committee

In Russian news agency URA.Ru the fact that the main media personality, General Markin, resigned is also associated with the scandalous events taking place in this department.

July 19 current year The deputy head of the Moscow Investigative Committee, D. Nikandrov, and the head of the committee’s own security structure, M. Maksimenko, were taken under arrest. They have been charged with exceeding their official authority.

Conflict with Novaya Gazeta

On September 7, 2016, correspondent N. Prusenkova (Novaya Gazeta) announced a violation of copyright by Markin by quoting her article in his newly published book. General Markin, in his Internet blog, first called Prusenkova a “journalist” who intends to get a piece of fame at his expense, and then asked for forgiveness for this.

The reaction of political scientists to the events around Markin

The first vice-president of the Center for Political Technologies, Alexei Makarkin, expressed the opinion that the inadequate reaction of the official representative of the Investigative Committee to Prusenkova’s statement served as a “trigger” for his resignation.

Makarkin called Markin’s behavior towards the journalist strange and unusual for him. According to Makarkin, they do not practice apologies to media representatives.

The director of the Center for Political Research at the University of Finance, Pavel Salin, expressed the opinion that the reason for this form of reaction of the head of the press center of the Investigative Committee to the accusation brought by Novaya Gazeta was the fragility of his positions. P. Salin recalled the case of Markin being accused of illegally obtaining a diploma. At that time, Markin reacted somewhat softer and much more confidently. There were no apologies on his part; he took the rigid position that “you yourself are worse.”

From the lips of an associate professor at RANEPA, teaching at the Institute of Social Sciences, there was an assumption that the resignation of the official representative of the RF IC is the result of internal processes in this department. However, she cautions against drawing hasty conclusions based on this circumstance.

Back in mid-September 2016, URA.Ru predicted the possibility of reshuffles in government circles at the deputy prime minister level and in the security forces, as well as the reorganization of the Investigative Committee in November of this year.

Moscow-Live.ru

“To relieve from his post Major General of Justice Vladimir Ivanovich Markin, head of the department for interaction with the media of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation,” says the presidential decree published on Friday, October 7, on the official legal information portal.

The document is dated October 6. It has not yet appeared on the president's website. This decree also makes other personnel changes in various structures of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Markin commented on the appearance of the decree with a line from Igor Talkov’s song under the symbolic title “I’ll be back.” “Enemies breathe a sigh of relief, and friends say: “I’m tired.” Both are mistaken - this is a halt...” - he wrote in Twitter.

After his resignation from the insurance company, Markin will go to work for the RusHydro holding, TASS reports. According to the agency, he will take the post of first deputy general director in the company. Markin himself confirmed this. “Yes, I confirm,” Markin said in response to a request to comment on rumors about his appointment.

Earlier on Friday, Interfax, citing a source, reported that the former representative of the Investigative Committee will begin work at RusHydro next week. “At his new place of work, Markin will deal with relations with authorities, the media, and also oversee the management of the company’s affairs,” the agency’s interlocutor said.

Markin previously stated that he “had several offers” of work, but promised to provide details only after he officially left the UK. He also said that he was going to continue helping the department, where he worked for more than nine years. In particular, will take part in creative projects SK, including in the creation of the Sledkom-TV television channel. Markin considers his mission in the insurance company completed. “So I decided to try myself in a new field,” he told reporters (quoted by TASS).

On September 21, Markin announced that he had submitted his resignation. At the same time, information that the press secretary of the Investigative Committee was going to leave his post was leaked to the press a week earlier - after a scandal broke out with the discovery of plagiarism in Markin’s just published book “The Most Loud Crimes of the 21st Century in Russia.”

Accusations of plagiarism caused Markin real anger. On his Twitter, he called out the journalist whose texts were borrowed from in his book. However, Markin later apologized for his behavior. However, the representative of the Investigative Committee canceled the meeting with readers, which was supposed to take place at the Moscow bookstore on September 14.

In addition to Markin’s dismissal, the media wrote about the possible imminent resignation of the Chairman of the Investigative Committee, Alexander Bastrykin. RBC journalists reported that it would take place immediately after the State Duma elections, which took place on September 18. Forbes wrote that Bastrykin had already been deprived of escort vehicles.

The Legal.Report website claimed to have a copy of Bastrykin’s resignation letter. The information that he submitted an application was confirmed by an RBC source close to the presidential administration.

The Kremlin did not confirm the information, but did not deny it either. At the end of September, the press secretary of the Russian President Dmitry Peskov refused to give a detailed comment on this topic, calling reports about Bastrykin’s resignation and the liquidation of the Investigative Committee rumors. Markin called the rumors about the departure of the head of the Investigative Committee “sucked out of thin air.”

In the summer, a corruption case was opened against a number of high-ranking officials of the Investigative Committee. After this, information appeared in the media about the upcoming large-scale reform of security forces in the Russian Federation. It was reported that big changes are expected in the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation: it could again become a structure under the Russian Prosecutor's Office, from which it was separated in 2011. At the same time, the status of its main departments will be lowered.

Vladimir Markin born in 1956. In 1985 he graduated from the Faculty of Journalism of Moscow State University. In 1985-1986 he was a correspondent for the newspaper "Evening Chelyabinsk". In 1986 he moved to Moscow, where for more than five years he hosted the programs “Time, Events, People” and “Man and the Law” on the All-Union Radio. In 1991 he moved to Central Television, where he worked for six years.

Markin worked at the Investigative Committee since September 2007, immediately after the establishment of the department (until 2011, the Investigative Committee was called SKP - Investigative Committee under the Prosecutor's Office). He took the post of head of the media relations department. In January 2011, the official representative of the Investigative Committee received the rank of Major General of Justice.

“Yes, I am leaving for RusHydro for the position of first deputy general director,” RIA Novosti quotes a former representative of the Investigative Committee. At the same time, Markin did not disclose the details of his work in the new post.

ON THIS TOPIC

Meanwhile, on Twitter, the major general originally commented on his dismissal from the Investigative Committee. “Enemies sigh with relief, and friends say: “I’m tired.” Both of them are mistaken, this is a halt...” Markin quoted lines from Igor Talkov’s song “I’ll be back.”

Earlier it became known that Russian President Vladimir Putin Vladimir Markin from the post of official representative of the Investigative Committee. “Relieve Vladimir Ivanovich Markin, head of the department for interaction with the media of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation, from his position as Major General of Justice,” the document says.

Let us recall that on September 21, Markin announced that. “Now I can officially say that I have decided to finish my work in the Investigative Committee and submitted my resignation letter to at will", he explained. However, rumors that Markin intended to leave his post appeared in the media much earlier. The official emphasized that he did not understand where the information leaked from.

The reasons for the dismissal stated in the press do not correspond to reality, he noted. “For some reason, it is generally accepted among us that a person can leave a responsible position only if he is miserably kicked out, sent to prison or carried out feet first. None of these cases apply to me,” Markin assured.

The representative of the Investigative Committee then said that he wanted to try his hand at a new field. However, he did not name the exact place of work.
