As an argument in favor of this version provides the following example: other projects Telman Ismailov only consumes resources. How, for example, Turkish hotel Mardan Palace worth over a billion dollars, which is now closed for renovation in anticipation of a change of ownership. New assets - "Voentorg", the restaurant "Prague" - did not bring comparable "Cherkizon 'profits.
"All their assets Ismailov bought with money earned at the Cherkizovsky market in times of his work there was no interruption to cash.
