Dead and gone. As only Moscow secrets can hide. The last eternal rest is forbidden to prying eyes. The only image that has escaped the strict control of the Kremlin censors is a carpet of white petals and three bunches of roses lying on the reddish earth of an anonymous cemetery in St. Petersburg. The image of the deceased is placed on the extreme edge of a tombstone that does not exist. The cross in light wood is temporary, but risks remaining so perennial.

Here it lies

Here lies 29-year-old Dmitry Goloshchapov, the son of one of the powerful in the magic circle of the Tsar of Russia. The father is not just anyone, but the only one who could get his hands on Vladimir Putin, the sole custodian of the most intimate secrets of the Red Square vaults. Dmitry, son of Konstantin Goloshchapov, is today, despite his death kept secret for months, the one and only owner of one of the most recognizable symbols of tourist Cagliari, that Hotel Mediterraneo, leaning towards the Su Siccu dock, protected shoulders from the Basilica of Bonaria. However, no one in this Sardinian land, an unmentionable dream of the closest men of the Kremlin head, has ever known of that death, as sudden as it is mysterious, which is unleashing one of the most impressive manhunts in half the world.

State homicide?

After all, it is nothing new, when one dies as the sons of oligarchs in Russia at the age of 29, it is difficult to think of the sign of destiny. Nor can the one that forced the father of the young Cagliari hotel owner to take off his ropes like lightning and escape, without wasting time, from the Russia of his "revered" Tsar Konstantin can be counted among the "heavenly" obligations. Goloshchapov, one of the most influential and mysterious men in the palace of power, a bit of a masseur, a bit of a holy man, a lot of oligarch, is today the wanted number one by the powerful Moscow secret services.

Father heir

It is he, in direct hereditary line, the new owner of that ruin between viale Colombo and viale Diaz, positioned as an icon in the door of sporting Cagliari. Now, however, everything becomes much more complicated and dangerous. Now that the young Dmitry has died in much more than suspicious circumstances, it will be practically impossible for the father to proceed even with the succession procedures alone. Even a simple hint of a replacement procedure could reveal the potential availability of someone whom the Putin system considers a real international fugitive. For everyone, that property in Viale Diaz in Cagliari, in the name of his son, appeared as an evident fictitious title to continue managing in relative silence that patrimony that Putin's masseur was accumulating around the world starting from Italy, and the Sardinia in particular. The young man's death, according to Russian investigative sources, would have occurred three days after a violent search of his father's home, considered by all to be untouchable, but evidently ended up in the black shirts of "his" tsar. Not even 72 hours after the sudden death of his son, the 67-year-old Russian oligarch Konstantin Goloshchapov, who has always been Putin's closest man, hasn't thought twice. His escape had already been calculated and planned in every detail, including the road to his sensational expatriation.

The last tip

The end of the idyll with the Tsar of Moscow has the wheels of the powerful BMW that belonged to Dmitry. The race, not intercepted, has an unmentionable objective: the border between Russia and Belarus. The tip had been whispered through gritted teeth, the last gesture of the secret services towards one of the powerful of the Kremlin forced to flee: his affairs, in the home and office vaults, were about to be searched. The accusation, for a loyalist, is the most ignoble: embezzlement. The times of a Goloshchapov nicknamed "Father Father", capable of invoking the sacred texts everywhere like no one, are over with a bang. The definition of "true patriot of Russia" was decidedly close to him and with influence and money he had earned a Greek and Croatian passport, with immense prestigious real estate properties in Italy, Croatia and Finland.

Witness of mysteries

Showy hunted has done nothing but leave the borders and throw himself headlong into an escape that promises to be tumultuous and unpredictable given the alert that the Kremlin report as the most impressive, precisely because Kostantin is the unrivaled custodian of Putin's personal secrets. from health to human weaknesses, up to the economic and financial plots consumed in the dark rooms of the Kremlin. After all, the heir owner of the Mediterraneo hotel was certainly not just that sort of Orthodox “guru” who was all about home and church. A "divine" plan, which he wanted to pass off as authentic, made up of prayers and donations, which he managed personally: the meeting point between Putin's business and relations with Patriarch Kirill. In fact, along with his fortune-telling professions, Goloshchapov had set up a veritable parallel system with massive investment stakes in the St. Petersburg water and electricity companies, Vodokanal and Lenenergo. Now under attack is precisely this imposing economic-human system linked to Putin's "masseur".

40 years of secrets

In the background there is the personal and human story yet to be discovered, given that between the two, the Tsar of Russia and Goloshchapov, there are at least 40 years of very close acquaintances, all intertwined with the two brothers Arkady and Boris Rotenberg, also mentioned in the Sardinian-Cagliari operation with the involvement in hidden and encrypted acquisitions and shareholdings, starting right from the Mediterranean of Cagliari. What has put Moscow's intelligence services on alert is therefore much more than an oligarch's escape. This is a real international case, with Sardinia involved in Russian-Sardinian affairs. It is considered by the secret services to be the most dangerous human passage into Putin's intimacy, greedy stuff for half the world's 007s.

From massage to power

It was not enough for Goloshchapov, in his youth, to have saved Putin from a serious back injury suffered on the judo mat, using innovative methods of massage. After that story, the Tsar's masseur had climbed the heights of the Kremlin, to the point of signaling no less than 500 high-ranking state officials, permeating the Russian administration with an army of his loyalists. Putin trusted him to the point of entrusting him with body and soul, from the massage of the body to that of the mind.

The mighty of Athos

A bond that seemed indissoluble also given the heavy influences of Kostantin in the Orthodox church, which led him to give birth to the "Russian Athos Society" foundation, from the name of the mountain where the independent state enclave of Russian Orthodoxy in Greek land is located . Russia's powerful are all there: among the 12 founders, like the apostles, was Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and a group of other direct cronies of Putin. An endless flow of money that will lead Putin to affix his seal to the initiative, complete with a ceremony on the Greek peaks in the presence of patriarch Kerill himself. The Mediterraneo, the four-star hotel in Cagliari, on the slopes of Bonaria, is now a ruin. It will stay that way for a long time, maybe forever. The rightful owner, according to the surveys and notarial deeds, is only one: Dmitry Goloshchapov, in the St. Petersburg registry office he is registered as deceased, declared dead for the Russian media on November 12, 2022. The legitimate heir, his father Konstantin, is fleeing Putin. He can't be found, but if the men of the Tsar of Russia's secret services find him, he won't have time to deal with the Mediterranean of Cagliari.
