The assets of Magomed Suleymanov's family have passed into state ownership.
Real estate and other assets of the former Dagestani official Magomed Suleymanov and his close relatives, totaling over 10 billion rubles, are registered as property of the Russian Federation.
As reported by "Caucasian Knot", in October 2025, it became known that the former mayor of Makhachkala, Magomed Suleymanov, who is wanted internationally, was accused of receiving a bribe of 74.5 million rubles and issuing 78 illegal permits for the construction of high-rise buildings.
Suleymanov served as acting mayor of Makhachkala from 2014 to 2015. While already in the position of head of the Dagestan Mandatory Health Insurance Fund (MHIF), Magomed Suleymanov was detained on August 17, 2018, at Makhachkala airport in a case of embezzlement of 210 million rubles. On July 5, 2022, the court fully acquitted Suleymanov. The court in Makhachkala ruled to reinstate him in his position. Suleymanov's acquittal outraged the then head of Dagestan, Sergey Melikov, who considered it contrary to the ideas of justice and the inevitability of punishment.
Houses in Makhachkala and Izberbash, a power grid complex, a bakery, and a share in a bank owned by former mayor of Makhachkala and Izberbash Magomed Suleymanov have been re-registered as property of the Russian Federation. The legal formalization of the confiscation of the official's family's property was reported by "Kommersant" on October 21.
The total value of the confiscated property is estimated at 10.4 billion rubles. The decision to confiscate the assets of Suleymanov and his close relatives was made in July 2026 by the Soviet District Court of Makhachkala, satisfying the anti-corruption lawsuit of the Prosecutor General's Office. The Suleymanovs attempted to appeal the decision, but the Supreme Court of Dagestan rejected their appeals on September 10.
According to the publication, among the confiscated property of Suleymanov are "three huge mansions" in Makhachkala. The owner of one of these houses, with an area of 360 square meters and a value of at least 131 million rubles, was formally Magomed Suleymanov's daughter. One of his sons owned a large plot of land with a building in Izberbash, while another son owned a three-story shopping center in that city.
The father of Suleymanov's wife, who died in 2021, owned an entire residential complex in Makhachkala, while Suleymanov's wife and sister owned apartments and commercial properties in Moscow.
As established by the Prosecutor General's Office and the court, through intermediaries, Suleymanov acquired the property complex of the municipal unitary enterprise "Izberbash City Networks", including energy facilities. He also, thanks to his powers, began to manage the property of OJSC "Izberbash Bakery", formalizing ownership in the name of a relative. Additionally, Magomed Suleymanov was recognized as a co-founder of the commercial bank "Izberbash" – formally, the organization was headed by his wife, but she was considered a nominal leader.
Magomed Suleymanov was appointed as the director of the territorial MHIF on July 9, 2015. Notably, Suleymanov took this position after voluntarily resigning as mayor of Makhachkala, and this resignation was announced on June 25, 2015, by the then head of Dagestan, Ramazan Abdulatipov. "He has completely lost the trust not only of the head of the republic but also of the government as a whole," Abdulatipov stated at the 52nd session of the Dagestan parliament.
Magomed Suleymanov led the administration of Makhachkala from April 4, 2014. Previously, from 1997 to 2007, he held the position of head of the Izberbash administration, and from 2007 to 2010, he was the chairman of the People's Assembly of Dagestan.
