Boris Safarovich Ebzeyev (Russian: Борис Сафарович Эбзеев; Karachay-Balkar: Эбзеланы Сафарны джашы Борис, Karachay-Balkar: Ebzelanı Safarnı caşı Boris) is a Russian politician and judge. He served as a judge on the Constitutional Court of Russia from 1991 to 2008 and as president of Karachay–Cherkessia between 2008 and 2011.
Ebzeyev was born on February 25, 1950, in the village of Janga Jere Kyzyl-Askerskogo Frunze district of the Kirghiz SSR, where his family, like other Karachays were expelled in 1944 (he returned home with his family in 1957). He graduated from high school in Karachiyivske, where he then worked there as a carpenter, later on as a concrete worker in a construction organization to earn some experience for admission to the Law Institute. In 1976 he fulfilled his military service. In 1972, he graduated from the Saratov State Academy of Law with an honors degree, and later on, studied for a Doctorate in Legal Sciences. Although Ebzeev is a lawyer and judge by profession, he is the author of more than 200 scientific works, including 25 books - monographs, textbooks, scientific and practical comments.
On 12 August 2019 the Anti-Corruption Foundation and Lyubov Sobol accused Boris Ebzeyev of illegal enrichment. According to the investigation, Boris Ebzeyev has a grandson, Arthur Borisovich Ebzeev. He was 4 years old, when he entered into a contract of purchasing an apartment in Moscow’s elite Ostozhenka district with the area of 274.2 m2. Its market value estimated at 500 million rubles. Then a 7-year-old child made a deal with an offshore from the British Virgin Islands and sold this apartment, buying a house in Rublyovka.[1] [2] [3]
