Employees of Marton hotels in Krasnodar have asked to remain employed.

Participants in a video message asked that employees of the Marton chain of hotels remain employed and not be deprived of income. Some hotels are operating, but the staff is in a state of uncertainty.

As reported by "Caucasian Knot," bailiffs have begun sealing Marton hotels in Krasnodar. The Marton hotel chain in Krasnodar held a significant market share, and the simultaneous closure of its hotels would seriously damage the industry and consumer confidence, according to tourism industry representatives.

On October 14, Moscow's Ostankino Court upheld the Prosecutor General's Office's claim against former Supreme Court judge Viktor Momotov and Kuban businessmen Andrei and Ivan Marchenko, ordering the seizure of their assets—approximately 100 properties, including the buildings of approximately 40 Marton hotels in various regions—for the benefit of the state. The facilities are located in nine Russian cities, including in the south of the country: 43 of them are in Krasnodar, 26 in Rostov-on-Don, 11 in Volgograd, and two in Sochi. The chain's executives, Andrei and Ivan Marchenko, have been under arrest in Krasnodar since September.

An appeal from Marton hotel employees in Krasnodar was published by the "Typical Krasnodar" Telegram channel.

"I am asking for justice to be restored and for my jobs to be returned. Because I am a mother of three children. Now that I am losing my job, I have nothing to feed them with. And I have nothing to live on. Andrei Vladimirovich was a good employer. He paid us on time and fairly. I am asking for our jobs to be returned," the woman said in the video, with about 15 people standing on the steps behind her.

The video description claims that the hotel employees appealed to Putin regarding this matter, asking him to "intervene in the situation and influence this unfair decision." "adopted by the court," including regarding the illegal detention of Andrei Marchenko. "We are confident that thanks to your intervention, we will be able to protect our right to work," the description reads. The fragment in which the hotel employees say this is not included in the message.

By 10:44 a.m. Moscow time, the post on the Telegram channel, which has over 140,000 subscribers, had garnered 70 comments.

"What's the problem with them finding other work? There are tons of hotels everywhere," Alex commented.

"There are tons of jobs in the city, including at other hotels. A court decision is a court decision," Evgeny pointed out.

"How many people have been left without work! It's a shame," Oksana noted.

An employee of one of the chain's hotels in Krasnodar reported that the staff was left in a state of uncertainty. "We actually recorded the appeal because we have no idea how long we'll be able to continue operating. There are no restrictions on check-in dates yet; rooms are being booked, and we're checking people in. But we're living in a state of complete uncertainty. Regular employees aren't being tangled up in these matters. All we know is whether we'll be working tomorrow or not," 93.ru quoted her as saying.

An employee at another hotel said she had nowhere to go if the chain shuts down. "We're trying not to even think about it. Management hasn't told us to look for other jobs yet either. If that happens, a lot of people will be left without money. Some have families, children. We don't want that," she was quoted as saying on October 16.
