According to investigators, in 2013 Ageyev and an acquaintance of his Sergey Petrov set up a stable armed group active in the Samara and Ulyanovsk Regions. The gang included two more individuals, who had to kill two businessmen on hire.
To do that Ageyev and Petrov got a Kalashnikov machine gun and two TT pistols with ammunition. They also had an improvised explosive device, a Kalashnikov assault rifle and a grenade.

In addition, in 2011 Shkayev and Lyovin assaulted a Vice-President of a self-regulated company in Samara Region to intimidate him. They hit the victim multiple times on the head and limbs with iron rods causing an open craniocerebral trauma and closed fracture of left ulna equal to medium-range damage and stole his belongings worth over 100 thousand rubles.
