A Russian businessman with Portuguese nationality is a true mystery in Norway and Portugal, where he has lived for almost 20 years. Konstantin Chudinov opens companies and tries to buy real estate and land in critical areas of both countries. To thicken the mystery, he has family connections with people close to Vladimir Putin.
More difficult than revealing an image is trying to discover the intentions of the mysterious man who has lived in Portugal for 20 years. Very little is known about him. It is necessary to gather fragments.
Born in Russia, he is 55 years old and his name is Konstantin Chudinov. Over the last two decades, from the north to the south of the country, this man has been sowing plans in various areas.
But it was not only in Portugal that Konstantin Chudinov became a enigma. Two months ago, the SIC’s partner channel, aired a documentary in two episodes, lasting almost two hours in total, with a journalistic investigation into the Russian.
The complaint came from Chudinov’s personal assistant, Lone Schjelderupand the engineer Staale Schjelderup, who now fears he has been used as a figurehead.
