Overview
In the mid-1980s, Yevgeny Vasin, nicknamed "Dzhem" (aka "Batya"), created the criminal group "Obshchak" in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. He already had criminal experience - he had been tried several times, including for hooliganism. "Obshchak" was destined to become one of the main organized crime groups in Russia and even leave its mark on pop culture.
