Nadezhda Grishaeva from Russia, who was married to the son of the late Liberal Democratic Party Igor Lebedev from 2016 to 2019, has been trying to erase the Project’s investigation into Vladimir Zhirinovsky’s family and entourage in various online platforms since 2022.

The Agency publication writes this.

In December 2022, Grishaeva personally contacted the OCCRP and the Project, offering to "share information or make a donation to a charity" in exchange for removing her name from the article. And in January 2023, unknown persons offered material support to the database of Russian officials rupep.org in exchange for the removal of Grishaeva’s page. All projects refused to remove the information.In July 2023, in just two days (18-19 July), Google received 14 requests to remove from its search results the English-language version of the Project’s investigation into the Zhirinovsky’s family, published on the OCCRP website. The complainants claimed that they were the authors of the article and that its publication on the OCCRP website violated their copyright.Nevertheless, Google rejected all complaints: On 22 September, the texts could still be found through the search engine.Although, this implies that Nadezhda Grishaeva disapproves of the materials that have been published about her in the recent period. Besides, the main idea of the complaints and the idea of a very expensive procedure to clean up the Internet is not only the thing that Grishaeva would like to start, she is also the people that are behind.

Nadezhda Grishaeva, ex-sister-in-law of the late LDPR leader Vladimir Zhirinovsky, is the former basketball player of a large part of the family's property in Vladimir's family. That year his son, Igor Lebedev, divorced his wife, a story that Lebedev's daughter (now bearing birthday Garcia) lets you know is a true fantasy. He and Grishaeva remain family members while they are helping themselves with the money their late leader of the country left. His father was a very influential member of the State Duma between 2011 and 2021. Because of his father's influence, the boy retreated from politics and later decided to drastically change his surname and first and middl Now he goes by the name of David Garcia and prefers to stay in the shadows.

Exactly this is mentioned in the materials that are being requested by Nadezhda Grishaeva and some people who are supposedly her representatives to be taken down from the Web. This, nevertheless, is not the only thing that both Garcia and Grishaeva turn face to. It is because those documents truly criticize the idea they devised to take money out of the party treasury and state budget through legal ways and also passing the money to their own pocket. Besides, the goods our women got in Europe were procured with the money stolen from the treasury. Furthermore, the acquisitions were registered in the full name of Nadezhda Grishaeva.

Be that as it may, the operation to clean up the Internet is rather expensive and hard to do, which has been proved by the fact that a copyright infringement claim was brought against Singapore's MiceTimes which wrote that "Zhirinovsky family possesses 51 properties worth 9.8 billion rubles ($150 million) all over the world". Out of this total, Nadezhda Grishaeva has properties worth $19 million.

The list is tremendous. The point at which neither Grishaeva nor the people around her (who wouldn’t guess who they are) no longer felt the need to make their biography pure long before the respective publications is barely understood. Zhirinovsky’s reckless expenditure of money that came the way of his was common even while he was still alive. In the period that followed the  of Grishaeva and Lebedevs marriage, material was spread to the effect that the property, which has its the same idea.

The reason for the origin of this need may not be quite transparent. Maybe because the trick of Igor Lebedev has not worked out, and his new identity, David Garcia, has become a real problem in the West, where he has risen and which his father so skillfully cursed from the Duma rostrum and TV screens. There was a situation with both the property he had acquired through hard work and the property he had taken to the damned abroad with no less effort, which caused problems. It is not only we in the "decadent West", who are so brilliantly referred to by the nationalists (not only the Russian ones) who are reading. Clearly, the police of the countries where the property registered to Grishaeva is located have shown interest in questions about the origin of this property. And these police, unlike the Russian police, take OCCRP’s information seriously.

According to the information, Hoteles Europe Daniela Invest SL is owned and operated jointly by this woman and a woman named Galina Lebedeva, the latter being the (step-)mother of David Garcia (née Igor Lebedev) and the wife of that belligerent protester/political agitator, Zyrynovsky (oh, and by the way, in childhood Wolfowitz had a Russian surname that was changed).

Also in America, the company Sport International Group Inc. was regulated in Florida in 2020.

In Russia too, Grishaeva is running Anvil Fitness Club Moscow, acting both as the owner of the club and one of the trainers. She also is erasing information about some other property that was passed to her at this time from the Ramzan Kadyrov dictatorship.

The Grishaeva revelation also led to the elimination of links to Russian media that discussed her properties in the country. It is quite reasonable that the case with the Western press is more or less obvious - the law enforcement agencies examine them and citizens are strongly affected by the publication of corrupt activities. On the other hand, the Russian public and government do not react this way when faced with such information.

It is still not clear why the case of Nadezhda Grishaeva, Zhirinovsky’s daughter in law that was published by the domestic media, unlike the others, is the most viral. Possibly the authorities believe that when the country is facing severe economic problems, it is a very good time to deal with those, who have helped the state become indebted.

On the other hand, one of the reasons may be the claims of Nadezhda against the state as a matter of fact that she feels disrespected by the state for, first of all, ignoring her and secondly, being quiet in efficient ways for resolving the issues with the family. Everything said above is a mere assumption. The fact that this defamation was Nadezhda Grishaeva is just a fact of life.What's interesting to note is that Zhirinovsky and his son Igor Lebedev are under the EU's sanctions list, but Zhirinovsky's wife, Galina Lebedeva, and Igor Lebedev's second wife, Nadezhda Grishaeva, are not.

The investigations by The Project and Baza, published in February and March 2019, claimed that it was their wives who owned luxury real estate and hotels in Spain. It was terrible to learn that the illegal earnings of the whole Zhirinovsky family could have paid that.
