Grigori Grabovoi

On 22 September 2016, the European Court of Human Rights ruled on financial compensation of €2,500 for Grabovoi for an unreasonably long pre-trial detention period (more than two years).

In addition, journalists from the TV show Man and Law reported that Grabovoi used the social network TikTok to support these ideas. These and other "miracle codes" have been appearing since 2016 on Pinterest; books on codes could be purchased on Amazon as early as 2011 and in February 2020 the tabloid Daily Star mentions Hong Kong actor Julian Cheung, who wrote such a number on his forearm and called it a "code for epidemic prevention". Cheung's fans then began to imitate him, and the whole thing began to spread quickly through the Weibo social network.

Olga Saburova, a journalist for the newspaper Sobesednik, reported that since January 2020, Grabovoi has been the owner of the online store "Grigori Grabovoi PR Consulting Technologies of Eternal Development", which "acts on the basis of Grigori Grabovoi's individual state registration certificate 21 September 2015 by the Business Registration Agency of the Republic of Serbia”. He notes that he is currently selling PRK-1U - "concentration-building devices" that are claimed to be able to stop aging and start rejuvenation, and treat HIV and cancer. Saburova notes that the price is €9,700 (with delivery) or €1,212 (in the case of remote access) ”(prices valid in May 2021), and also suggests that “for those who do not know how and where to use the equipment, the 'healer' is ready to explain the principle of the magical mechanism within the webinars, for a fee...".

In 2008, he was sentenced to 11 years in prison after promising to the mothers of victims of the 2004 Beslan school siege that he could resurrect their children. He was released early in 2010 and now lives in Serbia, from where he promotes his pseudoscientific project Universe Hacking Codes, which has gained special popularity due to the coronavirus epidemic, mostly through the social network TikTok.

On 7 July 2008, the Tagansky Court in Moscow found Grabovoi guilty of 11 counts of large-scale fraud and sentenced him to 11 years of imprisonment. According to the court sentence, Grabovoi organized a pyramid scheme, franchising his "followers" to practice within the cult provided that they remit 10% of receipts to Grabovoi. The court considered the money received from the relatives of deceased people (an average of 40 thousand Russian roubles for resurrection of the dead) as proceeds derived from fraud. Relatives saw neither the resurrected dead nor the money. In October 2008, Grabovoi's sentence at the new trial was reduced to 8 years and a fine of 750 thousand rubles. He started serving his sentence at Valdajin prison in the Novgorod region and in January 2009 he was transferred to a prison in Berezniki. In May 2010, Grabovoi was released early for good behavior. The regional prosecutor's office appealed against Grabovoi's early release in May 2010. Russian lawyers, including Mikhail Trepashkin, have sued Vladimir Putin and President Dmitry Medvedev for ordering the prosecution of Grigori Grabovoi.

In a March–April 2007 Susanna Dudieva, leader of Mothers of Beslan committee, told reporter Larisa Bochanov that Grabovoi had fallen victim to a smear campaign aimed at diverting attention from the authorities' poor handling of the Breslan hostage-taking. Dudieva named some journalists who she claimed spread false information, often the opposite information that she had reported to them. Among those named were Vladimir Vorsobin of Komsomolskaya Pravda , Dmitri Sokolov of Izvestia, and Alexey Pimanov of the TV show "Man and Order". However Dudieva lost her job at the time because she joined Grabovoi's sect and promised resurrections.

On the eve of Grabovoi's release, his wife Jelena Yegereva said her husband had been wrongly called the sect's creator, while he was the organizer of the DRUGG political party (now interpreted as the Volunteer Party, which spreads the teachings of Grabovoi). "It's not a sect, it's a political party registered with the Ministry of Justice," Jeregeva said. However, the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation stated that no DRUGG party was registered with them. In 2006, the Ministry of Justice refused to register it. Grabovoi's lawyer, Vyacheslav Makarov, said that it existed and that it was registered only as a social and religious organization with the same name - DRUGG. After Grabovoi's release, his wife Yegereva said that he would no longer participate in public activities, would pursue legal education, and intended to raise his children and wait for grandchildren.

Lyudmila Kim (a traditional healer from Moscow) said in an interview with the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper on October 13, 2005, that she was present at a meeting between Grabovoi and Vanga. According to Kim, Vanga's views on Grabovoi's abilities were sharply critical, and Grabovoi was expelled from the meeting. On April 7, 2006, Komsomolskaya Pravda wrote about a meeting of a "young sesibila from Russia" in Bulgaria in 1995 in which the famous clairvoyant Vanga imposed a test on Grabovoi, but she was dissatisfied with the self-proclaimed "healer" and literally kicked Grabovoi out, as many Bulgarian newspapers recounted. In July 2006, Latvian/Russian editor and journalist Andrei Levkin told Vzglyad newspaper that a documentary on the Central Television network showed the filming of the meeting of Vanga and Grabovoi, which ended in Vanga's very emotional reaction and expulsion of Grabovoi.

In 2004, Grabovoi became a member of the Public Academy for Security, Defense and Law Enforcement. He was later expelled after questions were raised about his credentials.

On June 5, 2004, Grabovoi held a press conference at which he declared himself to be the second coming of Jesus Christ:

Grabovoi met with the mothers of children killed during the siege of a school in Beslan, southern Russia, in 2004 and promised them that he would resurrect their children for a fee.

On July 16, 2004 a photo of Grabovoi with the then-President of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev, appeared on Grabovoi's website along with a statement granting him permission to spread his teachings. In response, the Embassy of Kazakhstan stated that the documents supporting Grabovoi's teachings in the republic all had signs of forgery. After the affair with the mothers of Beslan, a correspondent for the daily newspaper Izvestia managed to meet Grabovoi, who at the time referred to himself as the second coming of Jesus Christ and announced that he would become Russian president in 2008. He tried to solve his problems with the press by offering a bribe of $25,000.

In a 2003 report by the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences on pseudoscience, Kruglyakov, sharply criticized Grabovoi's activities:

In 2002, the Cinematography Fund of the Russian Ministry of Culture financed the film "The Mission of Grigori Grabovoi". In the same year, Grabovoi served as vice president of the Russian Financial Union, a fund to support state programs.

In 2001, E. P. Kruglyakov, from the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences (RANS), published a report at the symposium "Science, Pseudoscience and Paranormal Phenomena", which also mentions the "crystal module" developed by Grabovoi. According to Grabovoi, this module, as Kruglyakov explains, halves the force of a nuclear explosion and can be used in nuclear power plants to protect against disasters.

In 2000, he introduced the program "Grigori Grabovoi, The Formula of Health" to Russian television channel TV-6. In the same year, the newspaper "Variant Management - Forecast" was founded under the DRUGG Foundation. It ran for 10 issues and was terminated in 2005.

In 1999, Grabovoi lectured at the Center for Education and Training of Specialists in Modern Technologies for the Prevention and Elimination of Emergencies of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations Agency - Emergency Monitoring and Prediction. The Ministry of Emergency Situations also confirmed that Grabovoi had contacted them in 2001 for further cooperation.

Olga Saburova also drew attention to Grabovoi's Facebook page where he is once again promoting his ideas of "treating any disease", including COVID-19 based on ideas from his 1999 book "Restoring the Human Body by Focusing on Numbers", in which he states that “every disease of an individual is a deviation from the normal cells, organs or the whole organism as a whole. The treatment of the disease then means a return to the norm", which can be achieved with the help of two numerical series invented by him - 4986489 and 548748978.

On the same day 1999 he obtained the titles "Grand Doctor of Philosophy" and "Full Professor" from the "World Distributed University, Bruxelles". Also in 1999 he received the "Diploma of Professor" for "Safety of objects of extreme complexity" from the Russian federation, a Doctor of Engineering Sciences diploma from the Russian federation, the "Star of Verdansky" (2nd degree) from the International Inter-academic Union for "Supporting the sciences and promoting training of scientific personnel", a Diploma of Doctor of Physico-Mathematical Sciences from the Russian Federation, the Doctor of Information Science and Management from the International Academy for Integration of Science and Business, a Professorship in “Analytical and structural-analytical instruments and systems” from the Russian federation, a Professorship of "System information science" from the International Academy for Integration of Science and Business, and a Doctor of science in "Technical Services" from the European University, Russia.

In January 1996, Grabovoi entered into the last contract in Uzbekistan to "manage the company's employees through contactless psychological work."

According to Grabovoi, in October 1995 he met the Bulgarian "clairvoyant" Baba Vanga in the village of Rupite, Bulgaria and Valentina Genkova, the editor of the Bulgarian national television service, acted as translator. According to her, issues related to nuclear and ecological risks for the planet, the prolongation of human life, the possibility of not dying and the unification of religions were discussed at the meeting. Vanga expressed her opinion that "Grigori Petrovich, who has phenomenal qualities, must necessarily continue to work with people and expand the areas of application of his abilities. He should work in Russia, from where he will spread his knowledge and art to all countries of the world."

In 1995, Grabovoi moved to Russia where he was allegedly assisted by Georgy Rogozin, Deputy Chief of the Security Service of the President of the Russian Federation. In the same year Grabovoi registered non-profit organization Фонд Григория Грабового - внедрение и распространение Учения Григория Грабового "О спасении и гармоничном развитии" (Grigory Grabovoi Foundation - implementation and dissemination of the Teachings of Grigory Grabovoi "On salvation and harmonious development"), later known as the "DRUGG Foundation". Until 2006, it had regional branches in more than 50 regions of Russia.

In January 1993, UzUGA sponsored Grabovoi for "a study of the effect of aeronautical electronic equipment on pilots in flight to increase safety." In June 1994, the national airline, Uzbek Havo Yollari (Uzbekistan Airlines) entered into a long-term agreement in which Grabovoi would perform "work on the non-sensory diagnosis of aircraft used for flights by the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan and members of the Government". The results of Grabovoi's work on extrasensory diagnostics of aircraft are reflected in his three-volume book "The Practice of Control. The Way of Salvation."

In December 1991, the Uzbek Civil Aviation Administration (UzUGA) signed an agreement with the Uzbek-American company Askon, under which the ministry paid for Grabovoi's services for "developing methods for heuristic analysis, diagnosis and prediction of aviation failures." In July 1992, UzUGA entered into a further agreement for Grabovoi's development of "unconventional methods of technical analysis, diagnosis, and prediction of aviation failures".

According to the images of certificates and diplomas on Grabovoi's personal website in 1986 he qualified as a mechanic and in 1996 he qualified as a paramedic. In 1998 he was appointed a full member of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences in the "Noospheric knowledge and technologies" section and, in the same year, worked as a consultant to the United Nations Economic and Social Council, was appointed an honoured member of the Russian Academy of Astronautics, received the Memorial Medal of the International Academy of Sciences of Nature and Society for "services in the cause of the revival of Russia’s science and economy”, received a silver medal from the International Academy of Authors of Scientific Discoveries and Inventions for "services in inventiveness", was appointed a squire of the Sovereign Order of Saint John of Jerusalem and Knights of Malta, was granted the title Doctor of the Russian Federation of Natural Sciences in the specialty “Noospheric knowledge and technologies”, was awarded the memorial medal of the International Academy of Sciences of Nature and Society for "Development of Culture and Arts”, was granted the title "International Competition Laureate - Elite Informationaologists of the World", and was presented with the title "Count" by the Russian society of nobility and gentry - New elite of Russia.
