Biker biography. Alexander Zaldostanov: biography, personal life

The formidable Kremlin biker Surgeon, the standard of the patriotic movement, turned out to be an ordinary gay. It was in this capacity that he used to shock German photographers.

Archival photographs of the German rock photographer Petra Gall, who once made a name for herself in the Soviet subculture, got into the network. The photos that appeared immediately blew up the Internet, as they opened previously unknown pages of the history of the current favorites of the Kremlin.

The fact that the formidable surgeon, threatening to trample on gay Europe, in the old days officially represented the few sexual minorities of the Soviet Union during Perestroika, reports the German resource Erich Hartmann, citing archival material from the skif-tag blogger.

The photo of the Perestroika period shows Alexander "Surgeon" Zaldostanov and Kirill Frolov, who turned out to be the most famous gay couple at that time. Actually, it was they who officially represented the sexual minorities of the Soviet Union. A pair of homosexuals The surgeon and Frolov had to prove to the West that we have "everything like people" - there are even married couples of homosexuals.

Future preachers of Vladimir Putin's ideas - Alexander Zaldostanov and Kirill Frolov, an employee of the Institute of CIS countries, who was expelled from Ukraine and a number of other countries, hug nicely, posing in front of a German photographer's camera.

As it turned out, in the late 80s of the last century they were an liberated gay couple who openly hugged on Pushkin Square in the center of perestroika Moscow.

For several years now, the leader of the Moscow bikers "Night Wolves" Alexander Zaldostanov, who speaks in public under the nickname "Surgeon", being a latent gay, is revealingly friendly with the president Russian Federation Vladimir Putin.

The surgeon in the Russian patriotic movement personifies a stern, uncompromising masculine principle, merciless to all violations of Orthodox canons.

Alexander Sergeevich Zaldostanov(according to some sources, the correct spelling of the surname is Zaldastanov), nickname - Surgeon - the legendary Soviet and Russian biker, founder and leader of the biker movement in Russia and the oldest Russian biker club "Night Wolves". He is also the head of the public non-profit organization Russian Motorcyclists, operating under his club; the president Russian Association bikers; general director of the Bike Center at the club in Moscow and representative office in Russia of the club "Sexton".

Childhood and youth

Alexander Sergeevich Zaldostanov was born January 19, 1963 in the city of Kirovograd in the Ukrainian SSR. His parents were doctors, besides him, the family also had an older sister Anastasia, she also became a doctor and went to live and work abroad. Mom, Lyubov Vasilievna, worked as a resuscitator and was a deeply religious person, she also tried to raise her children in the spirit of the Orthodox religion. Also, this woman had two paradoxical qualities: she was a staunch supporter of the policies of Joseph Stalin, but at the same time a categorical opponent of the ideology of communism.

Alexander Zaldostanov in his youth

Young Alexander, surrounded by doctors, also intended to become a doctor. He entered the 3rd Moscow medical institute, graduated from it and residency in 1984, became a certified maxillofacial surgeon. However, there is other information, according to which Zaldostanov did not finish his studies at the medical institute. According to the rules of that time, after graduating from high school, Alexander was assigned to a dental hospital and had to work in his specialty. At first, this happened, he was even predicted a good career in this area. But Zaldostanov was too freedom-loving and unformatted for Soviet society to live his whole life as an ordinary doctor of those years. The rebellious disposition and passion for motorcycles and heavy metal soon manifested themselves so much that the young man left the post of maxillofacial surgeon and medicine in general. There was no more professional work in Alexander's life, he completely devoted himself to his hobby, which turned into his lifestyle.

The beginning of the biker journey

1983 can be considered the beginning of the biker career of Alexander Zaldostanov. In that year, the guy, while still studying in an internship, bought his first motorcycle. It was the famous Czechoslovak "Java", which became one of the symbols of its time. Riding on his own "iron horse", the young man was distracted from the gray reality and working days. Being desperate and arrogant by nature, Alexander easily made acquaintances with like-minded people, including the "Black Aces" - informal groups, which included not only bikers, but also lovers of heavy music and just lovers of having fun, or even fighting in your pleasure. The head of this youth formation was Rus Tyurin.

"Black Aces" could not fail to notice such a bright personality as Alexander Zaldostanov. More and more lovers of drunkenness and revelry gathered near him, and soon our hero, known among the informals under the nickname "Sasha Dentist", received a more respectable name - Alexander the Surgeon. The whole company of his friends began to be called "Surgery".

The rise and rise of the Night Wolves

The prerequisite for creating his own biker club, which later became legendary, was Alexander Zaldostanov's move to West Germany. This happened because of the marriage of our hero to a German woman named Matilda in 1985. Life in a foreign country was not cloudless for the Soviet guy. He had to engage in a wide variety of activities in order to be able to provide for himself and his wife. Zaldostanov worked in West Germany as a watchman, as a sitter, as a concierge, as an auto mechanic, and as a doorman. It was at the position of a doorman in one of the nightclubs - the institution was called "Sexton" - that he met with representatives of the famous Hells Angels motorcycle club. These people made such a strong impression on the young Soviet biker that he was set on fire with the idea of ​​​​creating the same movement and the same organization in his homeland. This is what he did in 1989, when he returned to Soviet Union. The grouping of bikers was called the "Night Wolves", and Alexander Zaldostanov himself, since then called almost everywhere the Surgeon, became its head.

1993 - a new stage in the biker movement in Russia. Alexander the Surgeon defeated Alik Goch - the leader of the Rostov motorcycle association "Cossacks", thus "monopolizing" the entire Russian biker environment. Our hero was then thirty years old. Since then, none of the representatives of this trend in Russia could create their own groups or perform other significant actions for this area as a whole, without enlisting the approval of the Night Wolves and the Surgeon himself.

Suddenly arose new problem for Zaldostanov. He himself and his new offspring needed money, and the biker, who was not working anywhere, had none. In order to get a source of permanent income, Alexander and his “brothers” founded a rock club, which they named the same as a similar institution in West Germany, where the Surgeon worked as a doorman (and also a bouncer) - “Sexton”. This place went down in history as the center of frantic revelry and brawls, drinking parties and fights. Things were going great, but in 1995 the rock club suffered misfortune - it burned down. "Wolves" did not lose heart and laid the foundation for a new event - a biker show, which they began to hold every year with the involvement of participants from different countries, that is, Russian bikers have reached the international level.

Life after the accident

1999 is a new starting point in the life of Alexander Zaldostanov. When he was riding his motorcycle, the front brakes suddenly jammed. There was a serious accident, due to which the Surgeon even fell into a coma. The man remained in such a grave condition for two weeks. Having come to his senses and recovered, Alexander changed a lot in his outlook on life. He turned into a very religious person, for the rest of his life he decided to live as it should truly. Orthodox Christian. The surgeon became a frequent parishioner in churches, began to communicate with the clergy. One of them was a priest, but at the same time an actor, director, screenwriter, and in the past a well-known brawler and informal. He and Zaldostanov became close and found a common language. Okhlobystin began to visit Sexton, and to do this more and more often, and eventually joined the ranks of the Night Wolves, because Ivan Ivanovich is also a motorcycle enthusiast. Another innovation in the life of the Surgeon was his rejection of motorcycles of foreign firms. After coming out of a coma, he began to drive the domestic Ural, which caused considerable surprise among some members of the community.

It would seem that such an event as attracting Ivan Okhlobystin, a personality popular in various circles, to his company should further rally the Wolves and elevate their own leader, the Surgeon, in their eyes. However, it turned out quite the opposite. Zaldostanov's excessive religiosity turned some of the bikers against him. A split occurred among the Night Wolves: some of them remained loyal to the Surgeon, despite his new thinking, and some left the organization. And there were so many who broke away that they were able to create their own biker groups. All this led to the fact that the "Night Wolves" ceased to be monopolists in the motorcycle world of Russia. But the creator himself ideological inspirer this movement did not seem to care much about such changes. He focused on rebuilding the Sexton Club, which was to become a major biker hub.

Views and social activities of the Surgeon

Alexander "Surgeon" Zaldostanov actively participates in public life countries. At the same time, he does not get tired of repeating that he has nothing to do with politics and does not want to have one. However, no one can fail to notice the influence exerted by the Night Wolves on the masses. There is hardly a person who has never heard of this biker club and its controversial leader. Moreover, it should be noted that the Surgeon is trying to promote among the population and especially young people patriotism, respect for the motherland and its history, and also instills Orthodox faith. For such hard and fruitful work in 2013, Zaldostanov was awarded the Order of Honor.

The Night Wolves Club often arranges various events, especially those dedicated to various significant dates from the history of the country. For example, on the anniversary of victory in the Great Patriotic War, Battle of Stalingrad, the Battle of Sevastopol are motorcycle shows, rallies, festivals. Zaldostanov is also known as a participant in religious processions, where he moves in the same column with the rest of the believers. This causes strong indignation among a significant part of the bikers, but the Surgeon does not change his beliefs. Also, an ambiguous reaction is due to the friendship of the Surgeon with the President of the Russian Federation. The head of state visited the Sexton club three times, and also participated in motorcycle races in 2010 and 2011.

Surgeon's personal life

The personal life of Alexander "Surgeon" Zaldostanov remains almost completely a mystery behind seven seals. Despite his publicity and eccentricity, a man does not like to spread on such a private topic. Even journalists managed to find very little information about the Surgeon's relationship with women. It is known for certain that in 1985, at the age of twenty-two, the guy married a German woman. The girl's name was Matilda, she was a journalist from the Federal Republic of Germany. As it turned out, the family of Zaldostanov's chosen one was not easy: the girl's father was the director of the Mercedes-Benz branch in the city of Stuttgart. After getting married, the young people went to live in West Berlin. But family life did not work out. The most likely reason is the difficult financial situation of Alexander and Matilda. Despite the status of his father-in-law, Zaldostanov was not lucky enough to use his help, but had to work hard himself in Germany in order to feed himself and his wife. Thus, the details of Alexander's life with his German wife are unknown, only the fact that in 1989 the marriage broke up and our hero returned home to the Soviet Union is undeniable.

In the future, the Surgeon's relationship with women was not commented on by the biker himself, and only occasionally mentions of them appeared in the press. Whether any of what was written was true - one can only guess. For example, once in several publications there were suggestions about the close relationship between Zaldostanov and the infamous ballerina.

The surgeon is also a father - he has a son, George, already quite an adult guy. Sometimes information about other children of Alexander "pops up", both about sons and about daughters. Moreover, Zaldostanov turned out to be a caring dad, he does not renounce his offspring, does not deny paternity, but, on the contrary, helps children in every possible way.

surgeon now

In 2016, a scandal erupted around the statement of the Surgeon, in which he criticized the artistic director of the Satyricon Theater Konstantin Raikin, who supports the abolition of censorship in Russia. The statements of two celebrities raised a wave of resonance in society. The words of the Surgeon were quite harsh and based on the fact that excessive freedom never brought to good, because it is precisely with freedom that the devil always tempts people. Two warring camps were formed: some became opponents of Zaldostanov in this decision of his, others ardently supported the biker's position. Among the like-minded surgeon was, in particular, the Chechen head. He argued that complete permissiveness in society in general and art in particular can lead to very deplorable consequences: the promiscuity of young people and insulting the feelings and beliefs of religious people. The conflict of the parties reached such a point of intensity that even representatives of the authorities intervened in the matter. The press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation advised the Surgeon to make a public apology. But the famous "night wolf" did not want to give in and give up his words.

In May 2018, Alexander Zaldostanov again declared himself as a shocking person. Then the inauguration of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin was held, and the Surgeon appeared at it in a very extravagant form. He did not have any headgear, which is uncharacteristic for a biker, and under the traditional jacket of an informal motorcyclist, a white turtleneck was visible.

The surgeon rides a motorcycle in the wrong form: without a mandatory helmet. He also, despite many years of driving experience, constantly breaks the rules. traffic and does so consciously. Because of this, the biker is constantly at odds with law enforcement.

Alexander Zaldostanov acted in films several times. In 1989, it was an episodic role in the sensational drama film Crash - the Cop's Daughter. In 1992, he also played bit parts in Luna Park and Dancing Ghosts.

Family

I grew up in a family of doctors. Father - Sergey Zaldostanov - a doctor, went through the Great Patriotic War. Mother is also a doctor.

Honors Stalin, his portrait still hangs in her house. In response to the negative towards the legendary general secretary, he gives an unequivocal answer: "Breshut."

Alexander has a sister, also a doctor, of course. Currently lives and works abroad.

In 1985, Zaldostanov married a German journalist, Matilda, daughter of the director of the Mercedes-Benz plant in Stuttgart. They subsequently divorced.

After the divorce from Matilda, according to rumors, Zaldostanov had several more official wives and many mistresses. There is definitely a son Gosh. They say that Gosha has brothers. Alexander recognized all his children and participates in their upbringing.

Zaldostanov tried to attach one of his sons to the biker business. Unfortunately, everything ended in failure - the boy was seriously injured in both legs. During the operation, a titanium plate was inserted into him. Alexander Zaldostanov, whose family is his bikers and whose house is a bike center, avoids any questions about his personal life. He immediately takes the topic back to its usual course - a bike show, friendship with the president, Orthodoxy and patriotism.

Biography

Best of the day

After graduating from school, he chose the profession of a doctor and left to receive it in the capital. In 1984 he graduated from the 3rd Moscow Medical Institute and residency. He worked in a dental clinic as a surgeon, specialized in post-traumatic facial deformities.

During the day he led the life of an ordinary Soviet citizen, at night - leather clothes, hanging out with friends, listening to banned rock music, drunken brawls. The pugnacious informal was noticed and introduced to Rus Tyurin, the leader of the Black Aces metalworkers.

He liked Sasha the dentist and began to play the role of an information front worker under the leader, to communicate with the press. At that time, many rode around Moscow on motorcycles, and Alexander Zaldostanov in 1987, under the influence of his rocker friends, bought himself the first Java motorcycle.

Ambitious, charismatic, unstoppable in battle, fearless Zaldostanov gained more and more fan friends in his circle and eventually created his own group "Surgery", and took the nickname "surgeon" for himself. Passionately in love with motorcycles, the long-haired guy from a metalworker and gopnik turned into a biker.

Alexander liked to communicate with journalists. He felt confident with the microphone and boldly looked into the lenses. Thus, he met his future wife, just during the interview. The German journalist's name was Matilda.

She was the daughter of the director of the Mercedes-Benz plant in Stuttgart. With his wife Alexander Zaldostanov left for West Berlin. There he made a living participating in theatrical athletic shows, posing as a model, moonlighting as an auto mechanic and watchman.

Later he got a job as a dorman (something like an errand concierge) in the Sexton nightclub, which had a notorious Satanist membership and drug den. There he met the "Hell's Angels" - members of one of the world's largest motorcycle clubs. Apparently, it was from them that Sasha learned the basic knowledge about the structure and hierarchy of the bike club. Returning to Moscow in the early 90s, the "surgeon" devoted himself entirely to the biker business.

Alexander Zaldostanov fought a lot and successfully from his youth. And now he has confidently removed his only serious competitor, Alik Goch, the leader of the Kozaki biker group, from the path, pushing him to Rostov-on-Don.

From that time to the present, the Night Wolves club of motorcycle fans created by the Surgeon has held a monopoly in Moscow, harshly cracking down on rivals. His bikers behaved independently, sometimes even aggressively. Without a silencer, they rushed around Moscow at night, arranged motorcycle races with burning torches, and aerobatics was to rush past the traffic cop and kick the baton out of his hand.

In addition, the "wolves" "roofed" - points of sale of clothes for rockers, music stores, several cafes. The surgeon and his associates became co-owners of the Moscow rock club, which Alexander Zaldostanov named "Sexton" in honor of the German in which he worked. Music, striptease and drugs are closely intertwined here. This club burned down in 1995.

In 1999, the Surgeon had a serious accident. Having received a severe head injury, Alexander spent two weeks in a coma. Returning to the world, he built a base in Mnevniki together with his associates. The style is post-apocalyptic. A lot of damaged iron, a sign "Do not fit - it will kill you!" and the massive wreckage gives the impression that the inhabitants of this "bike house" survived a nuclear war.

On the territory of the base there is a profitable shop, a bar and new club"Sexton". In addition, legal money is brought in by regular, with scope and aplomb, bike shows.

IN last years the course of the "eternal" president of the bike club Alexander Zaldostanov has changed dramatically. Now the "Night Wolves" promote Orthodoxy, carry the Russian flag on their Harleys, take patronage over the third-graders of the Sevastopol school, give Volgograd a children's fountain and plan to launch the production of Russian motorcycles that will be cooler than the Harley-Davidson.

In the statutes of almost all motorcycle clubs in the world there is one general rule- do not get into politics. The surgeon, on the other hand, flirts with the authorities in every possible way - after several meetings with Vladimir Putin, he calls him his friend and regularly invites the president to the Night Wolves motorcycle festivals.

Vladimir Vladimirovich even rode several times with a convoy of bikers, although for the sake of the head of state's safety they put him behind the wheel of a more stable three-wheeled motorcycle. In response, Putin awarded the Surgeon with the Order of Honor (2013), a copy of which the Volkov leader now always wears on his leather vest.

In December 2014, the United States imposed economic sanctions on the Night Wolves club, including Khirurg personally, in connection with the policy of the Russian Federation in eastern Ukraine.

In January 2015, along with actor Mikhail Porechenkov, member of the Federation Council Dmitry Sablin and world champion in ultimate fighting Yulia Berezikova, he initiated the creation of the Anti-Maidan movement, which aims to counter attempts to repeat the Maidan in Russia.

Alexander is also an actor: in 1989 he played a cameo role in the film "Accident - the daughter of a cop." In 1992, he played in episodes in the films Luna Park and Dancing Ghosts.

Rumors, scandals

It is said that while working as a dentist, he collected beads from human teeth. At first he wore them himself, then he presented them to a friend, fashion designer Yegor Zaitsev. The biker either confirmed this information in the media, emphasizing that the teeth were carious, then denied it with a laugh, pointing to Zaitsev's fantasies.

In the dashing 90s, dozens of gangs operated in Moscow, but not one of them could capture the whole city. What the bandits did not succeed in, the Surgeon and his "Night Wolves" managed to accomplish. For several years, not a single new motorcycle club could appear in the capital of Russia without the knowledge and approval of Zaldostanov, and those who dared to disobey, the wolves dealt with quickly and mercilessly.

However, the Surgeon did not succeed in holding everything in his hands for a long time - in the late 90s, fan clubs of various motorcycle models began to appear, which were no longer possible to influence.

Also, new motorcycle gangs gradually began to be organized by bikers who left the Night Wolves as a result of several splits. Disillusioned with their leader, they no longer asked his opinion about whether they could open their own club.

It would seem that the division of territory and the "protection" of the clubs are all things of bygone days, however, more recently, in October 2012, the Night Wolves staged an attack on the small Zelenograd club "Three Roads".

The composition of the participants in the massacre was unequal from the very beginning - 50 "wolves" against 7 "three-roaders". However, the latter put up a worthy rebuff.

The conversation in raised tones turned into a brawl, and then shots rang out from both sides, as a result of which one of the "wolves" received a bullet in the stomach and died in the hospital, and the representative of the "Three Roads" accused of murder is still in jail. According to rumors, Alexander Zaldostanov himself did not participate in these events, but at that moment he was in Zelenograd.

The club "Sexton" The surgeon simply took away from his friends: they built it together, and then it turned out that, according to the documents, Sasha is the sole owner. There was a conflict, a showdown and a break with old comrades.

There is evidence that Zaldolstanov was a KGB agent. Nothing has been confirmed. But the opposite has not been proven either.

In April 2015, the Night Wolves organized a rally to Berlin, but the bikers faced obstacles from the Polish authorities. On April 30, Alexander Zaldostanov announced that Russian bikers managed to enter the territory of the European Union.

On May 12, 2015, the government of Sevastopol leased 267 hectares of land with a lake near Balaklava to the Night Wolves bike club for ten years. The rent for the plot was set at a minimum - 0.1% of the cost (1.4 billion rubles) per year.

The low price was due to the fact that the project conceived on the site for the construction of a sports and patriotic center for extreme sports is "non-commercial" and "socially significant for the development of the city." On May 22, deputies of the Legislative Assembly criticized the government's decision and demanded that it be suspended.

Speaker Aleksey Chaly said that "Night Wolves" should participate in the competition on a general basis, and their project should go through public hearings. Then Sergei Menyailo suspended the action of the decision. However, at the end of July, restrictions on the document were lifted. Such a step in the government was explained by the fact that the "Night Wolves" regularly pay for the lease of land.

In November 2016, the leader of the Night Wolves motorcycle club wrote a letter to the President of Russia to supplement the existing state emblem with "the braces of the Soviet generation."

Among the representatives of the motorcycle community, dissatisfaction with the actions of the leader of the club "Night Wolves" Alexander "Surgeon" Zaldostanov is brewing. They don't like the fact that Zaldostanov single-handedly and somewhat peculiarly speaks for the Russian motorcycle community as a whole. Some motorcyclists also accuse him of the fact that the leader of NV, under the guise of actions dedicated to the victory in the war, is engaged in club PR and discredits patriotism. The surgeon himself reacted sharply to the criticism.

The split among bikers has affected many events that they traditionally hold together, regardless of membership in motorcycle associations.

Thus, the traditional opening of the motorcycle season in St. Petersburg was not as massive as expected.

“Many clubs did not go to the opening. There were only those who have been friends with the Night Wolves for a long time, ”said St. Petersburg biker Igor Boroda in an interview with Gazeta.Ru. - To ensure the mass character of this action, the "wolves" even brought their members from other cities. On the video from the opening, you can see many motorcyclists with license plates from other cities. And all the same, this time almost half as many people came to the starting run as usual.” According to Boroda, the St. Petersburg motorcycle community did not like the fact that the Surgeon in the city on the Neva behaved like a host, although he came as a guest. “Ahead of the race were retro motorcycles from the war, and then Zaldostanov with the flag of the “wolves”. And only then - a car with the flag of St. Petersburg. They don’t behave like that at a party, ”said Beard.

“Two-thirds of the St. Petersburg motor people made it clear (“To the wolves.” - “Gazeta.Ru”) - go into the forest. Practically none of the clubs left for the column of 30 associations for one reason: we care about who rides in front,” Roman Yudin, a representative of the St. Petersburg association MotoSovet, emphasized.

The results of the opinion poll conducted following the opening of the motorcycle season in the social network VKontakte also showed a split.

40% of the respondents said that they did not go to the event “for reasons of principle”, while 30% liked the opening.

“At the same time, the Surgeon himself likes to repeat that they say that those who oppose them are the “fifth column”. But I know a lot of bikers who are generally positive about Putin's policies, but oppose the "Wolves" for the above reasons. Yes, and I myself, although I see many shortcomings in our state, I support the decisions of our president on fundamental issues,” Boroda said.

According to him, St. Petersburg bikers have an ambiguous attitude towards the “wolves” motocross across European countries. “If they simply, without any numerous interviews and self-promotion, drove through the cities of Europe, laid flowers at the monuments, that would be normal. And so it turns out that the tribute to the memory of the ancestors has turned into a PR campaign of the NV club,” he said.

“Petersburg bikers are starting to face the situation that has long been established in Moscow, where the centralized opening of the motoseason has not been held for a long time, although once upon a time NV held it almost exclusively. But then there were much fewer critical contradictions in the motorcycle community. Now there are many discoveries, including quite bright and organic ones, ”Arseniy Raisky, coordinator of the Polite Motorcyclists association, said in an interview with Gazeta.Ru.

The complication of relations between NV and a number of Ural bikers occurred due to Zaldostanov's statement to Vesti that his idea for a motorcycle race across Europe was born after talking with the legendary veteran of the Great Patriotic War Nadezhda Kirillova, who until recently lived in Yekaterinburg. Kirillova is a fighter of the motorcycle company of the Ural Volunteer Tank Corps, she initiated the appearance of a monument to motorcycle soldiers in the city park. Next to him, the veteran organized meetings of local bikers.

Only, as representatives of the Black Knives motorcycle club in Yekaterinburg note, no one remembers that the Surgeon talked with Kirillova.

“My grandmother and I, as we affectionately called the veteran, have been friends since the founding of the club, since 2005. Our people were interested in different people, including the local "wolves", and no one remembers that the Surgeon came to her, ”Dmitry “Kran”, a member of the “knives”, told Gazeta.Ru.

According to him, there is no open conflict between his club and HB. “For me personally, not a single “wolf” did anything bad, on the contrary, there were situations when these guys helped me. And in some ways I am grateful to the Surgeon for creating this culture in our country. But now the case is somewhat different - apparently, this person is working off the money that was allocated to him from the budget, although, I don’t know if this is true or not, maybe they didn’t allocate anything to him. But there is still a certain negative attitude towards the Surgeon after this story with Kirillova in our city, ”Kran noted.

He added that this became noticeable after the action dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the Victory, which took place on May 4 in Yekaterinburg. “The banner of Victory was carried through the region - a copy of the very banner that soared over Berlin in 1945. In Yekaterinburg, Zaldostanov took part in the procession. So, practically none of the representatives of other clubs went to this event. He picked up various of his acquaintances and rode with them, ”Kran” said.

Another member of the "Black Knives" Denis "Gamayun" told Gazeta.Ru that the quarrel with the "wolves" is not criminal, but his association with the leadership of NV prefers not to communicate. “History belongs to no one - everyone can come to the monument and put flowers. However, there are different people who do different activities. Therefore, we do not intersect with the “wolves,” he said.

In the Night Wolves club itself, they say that there is no split in the motorcycle community.

“I don’t know anything about the conflict because of the events dedicated to the Victory. On the contrary, other clubs are helping us in a certain way,” Anna Komarova, press secretary of the Wolves, said in an interview with Gazeta.Ru. At the same time, she did not specify which associations provide assistance to NV and in what way it is expressed. “All the information is on our website,” Komarova summed up briefly.

Zaldostanov himself reacted more sharply to criticism from other biker communities. “Listen, I don’t give a damn about such empty statements. Are we preventing someone from doing their own promotions? Or celebrate Victory Day? We only contributed in every possible way to the events of other clubs when we were asked to do so,” the Surgeon said in an interview with Gazeta.Ru.

He stressed that his club did not receive any money from the budget for a motorcycle race in European cities. “This action is exclusively of the Night Wolves, although some people helped us,” added the leader of the Wolves.

Talk about the money allocated to the Night Wolves began last week, when the Surgeon confirmed the information published by the opposition leader Alexei Navalny about receiving 56 million rubles. in the form of presidential grants. With these funds, bikers were supposed to hold New Year trees, stunt festivals, and also create a series of videos and an Internet resource for the purpose of patriotic education of young people.

Some metropolitan motorcyclists also hold a grudge against the Surgeon. They noticed that the image of the famous biker, actor and sportsman Sergei Badyuk was on the road information boards. He appealed to drivers with a call to comply with traffic rules. The action was initiated by independent motorcycle activists together with the Moscow Department of Transport. A few days later, Badyuk's images disappeared, and the Surgeon began to show on the scoreboard.

The initiator of the motorcycle safety action, Georg “Motobroker” Smyshlyaev, said: “According to our information, unscrupulous hands were involved in squeezing Badyuk out of the action.

We consider unfair the disappearance of Sergei Nikolaevich from the information boards, who is authoritative not only among viewers, but also among the bikers themselves. And to understand his patriotic position, it is enough to remember that he is a veteran of the Russian security services. special purpose, and watch the video clip "Memory" with his participation, dedicated to the holiday May 9," he explained.

Meanwhile, the conflict of "Night Wolves" with other clubs did not start yesterday, and has already become notorious. On October 20, 2012, NV members attacked a garage cooperative in Zelenograd, where the workshop of a small local club "Three Roads" was located.

“What happened then, and what is happening now, is speculation with patriotism,” one of the members of Three Roads, Yuri Nekrasov, told Gazeta.Ru, who used weapons during the “wolves” attack on garages and was for it. condemned.

When I was leaving the courthouse and saw a camouflage truck with a banner, with a picture of Crimea, with the flag of St. Andrew - this is in Moscow! The inscriptions “Valera, you did not live up to your dream”, “Nekrasov, who gave you cartridges” - all this inappropriate vulgarity and abomination, hypocrisy. It was at this moment that I became humanly sad from their direct lies. These NV posters are their request for indulgence for paid patriotism. I would like to believe that such a direct brainwashing of people in the 21st century should not take place. Or who do they see in citizens? Neither I nor Valera are to blame for the death of Valera, it is the fault of the one who deceived him, not the local one, and directed him to attack his own fellow citizens under patriotic slogans. It is impossible to abuse patriotism, and the Surgeon has gone too far. It seems to me that he confused who serves whom - he is the state, or the state is for him, for his commercial interests, ”Nekrasov summed up.

A little truth about the massacre in Zelenograd.

Alexander "Surgeon" Zaldostanov- President of the bike club "Night Wolves"

On Saturday, bikers from the Night Wolves motorcycle club drove through Moscow with balloons with the words "Christ is Risen" on them to support the participants in the rally for the Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus' Kirill.

According to Life News, the head of the Night Wolves biker movement, Alexander Zaldostanov, the action is aimed at supporting the Patriarch of Moscow and All Rus' Kirill.
With this rally, says Zaldostanov, better known as the Surgeon, the bikers want to urge the public to stop the information campaign against the Russian Orthodox Church.
- I have always been against demoniacs who laugh at true believers. I am a believer, and all the guys who take part in the action are also believers, - said the Surgeon.
Up to a thousand bikers took part in the motor race, which started at about 20.00 from the observation deck of the Sparrow Hills.
The motoaction took place the day before the general prayer service "in defense of the faith, desecrated shrines, the Church and its good name", which will be held in all the cathedrals of the Russian Orthodox Church on April 22. In Moscow, such a prayer service will be held in the Cathedral of Christ the Savior.

A-ha-ha ... So, gradually, you can nullify the entire reputation of the oldest motorcycle club to the level of a hangout. It seems to me that the Wolves have lost the remnants of respect and have now turned into a typical "Closed Club", where only everyone is their own. I can not believe it. I'm sure most of the HBs are sane enough and will either get out of this hangout or organize another club.

The leader of the bike club "Night Wolves" Alexander "Surgeon" Zaldostanov in exclusive interview Pravda.Ru spoke about what happened in Zelenograd on October 20.

On the night of October 20, Valery Roditelev, a member of the Night Wolves club, was killed. The media were full of headlines about the alleged conflict between the most famous bike club in the country and motorcyclists from the Three Roads club. Information about the incident was transmitted simply: the bikers scored the “arrow” and during the conflict, the participant of the “Three Roads” pulled out a gun and started firing at people. Valery Roditelev tried to save his comrades and point the gun up, but was wounded in the stomach. He later died in the hospital.
The leader of the Night Wolves, Alexander Surgeon Zaldostanov, says that everything that happened was turned upside down, and the causes of the conflict are much deeper and more dangerous than they seem.

According to the Night Wolves, the Three Roads have always been a friendly organization. The bikers wore the symbols of the club of Alexander the Surgeon and even wanted to unite with their comrades. According to the Surgeon, the Three Roads motorcyclists have completely changed in the three months they have not seen each other. After the "Night Wolves" returned from the bike show in Sevastopol, their friends changed their behavior and life position.
The badge that the Surgeon is talking about is the emblem of the radical biker organization Banditos, which is one of the four motorcycle clubs, the so-called one-percentagers, who separate themselves from both the mass biker movement and society, the state and laws.
Bikers say that such bike gangs are more common in the west, but now, radical organizations are trying to cross Russia, for which they are gathering accomplices here.

On the fact of the murder of Valery Roditelev, the Investigative Committee opened a criminal case. Members of the motorcycle club "Three Roads" do not comment on the state of emergency that occurred in Zelenograd. "Night Wolves" say what to answer to their former friends their methods will by no means be. Everything must be legal in this case.

On the night of October 19-20, 2012, an armed organized group consisting mainly of members of the Night Wolves motorcycle club, headed by Alexander Khirurg Zaldostanov, committed a robbery attack on the club house of the 3 Roads motorcycle club, in which at that time there were 7 people.

In response to the open fire from the gunshot and traumatic weapons, saving the lives of loved ones, a member of the "3 Roads" club, Yuri Nekrasov, after repeated voice warnings and warning shots, returned fire from a pump-action shotgun registered in accordance with all the rules.

As a result of the shootout, several attackers were injured. The attackers took the wounded, but not to the hospital. As a result of not providing timely medical care one of the Night Wolves died from blood loss.

The Night Wolves, who are the obvious instigators of the attack, are fully promoting the version that they "came to invite old comrades from the 3 Roads to the holiday, because they have not been seen for a long time, but they suddenly opened fire on them with a shotgun" and that the weapons they were not with them.

The truth is in the video. This is a 12-minute montage of a 40-minute 4-channel recording from outdoor surveillance cameras with an emphasis on what directly indicates the initially criminal intentions of the Night Wolves who arrived at the Oktyabrsky GSK.

The full version of what happened from all surveillance cameras can be viewed here:

A "scout" enters the territory of the GSK, after a while he leaves.
15 cars are coming.
The number of participants from the HB side is 50+.
The participants gather and go en masse to the 3D garage.
Two remain "on the lookout."
A man comes running, takes a bulletproof vest out of the trunk, and runs away.
The reaction of those standing on the lookout to shooting and armor is absent, from which we can conclude that for them this is a predictable development of events.
Take out the wounded.
They carry out the second wounded.
The hostage is taken out.
Mass departure of cars and "run-out" of participants in the events.
The arrival of the police.
