Who and why hides the truth about the last hours of the life of Sergey Magnitsky
President Barack Obama approved a stop list for entering the United States about 60 Russian officials involved in the death of Sergei Magnitsky. And at this time, games continue in Russia around the investigation of the causes of the death of a lawyer Hermitage Capital in the Sailor Silence pre -trial detention center. Who and why hides the truth about the last hours of Magnitsky’s last life - the New Times investigated
 |
“The criminal case against the former doctors of the Butyrka pre -trial detention center, the deputy chief of the medical part of Dmitry Kratov and the attending physician of Magnitsky Larisa Litvinova, was instituted not on real, but on fake reasons,” the complaint of Nicholas Gorokhov, sent to the head of the Main Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee of Russia (Main Directorate of the IC of the Russian Federation) Alexander Shchukin, says. “In the text of the decision on the initiation of a criminal case against doctors Litvinova and Kratov, investigator Marina Lomonosova hid the real circumstances of the crime that was committed against Magnitsky,” the lawyer writes.
Change of diagnosis
Gorokhov claims that the investigation has already at the disposal of 20 months * * The criminal case against Sergei Magnitsky was resumed by the Prosecutor General of the Prosecutor General on August 2, 2011 are documents with diagnoses established by Magnitsky during his lifetime: pancreatitis, cholecystitis and cholelithiasis.
All four months that Sergei Magnitsky was in Butyrka, he repeatedly asked him to be taken to the hospital for a second ultrasound and a planned operation. Doctors did not respond to requests. The lawyer draws attention: the investigation does not evaluate the actions of doctors, although it is not only about negligence, but also about criminal intent. Members of the Public Supervisory Commission (PMC) of Moscow, who conducted an independent investigation into the circumstances of the death of a lawyer, argued that the non -provision of medical care was a way of pressure from the investigation. The former operative of one of the Moscow pre -trial detention center confirmed The New Times: “Prison doctors receive instructions on how to treat or not treat the under investigation.” In his opinion, the order “Dreaming Magnitsky” could have come from the very top: from the head of the Federal Penitentiary Service of the Federal Penitentiary Service in Moscow of General Vladimir Davydov * * a report on the use of handcuffs, who put on Magnitsky 1 hour 30 minutes before his death, which, in turn, could receive this task from investigators of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, conducting the case of Magnitsky’s charges of paying taxes.
Lawyer Gorokhov notes that “new far -fetched diagnoses that are not confirmed by medical documents appear as the cause of Magnitsky’s death in the criminal case: secondary dysmetabolic cardiomyopathy against the background of diabetes and active chronic hepatitis”. They appeared in the case in June 2011, almost two years after the death of Magnitsky.

The anesthetist-resuscitator Timur Huseynov, who got acquainted with the materials of expert research, expressed the New Times his version: “The diagnosis of“ diabetes mellitus ”was not confirmed during the life of Sergey. The last fourth examination was diagnosed with diabetes only on the basis of histological studies. Why, in the two previous examinations, on the basis of the same studies, even assumptions of this kind did not arise? The “violent death” version is clearly worse for the investigation than the negligence of doctors. Therefore, they needed to find a suitable primary cause of heart failure. There is such a disease - diabetes. You can write a lot on it. ”
According to the conclusions of the fourth examination, "the shortcomings in the provision of magnetic medical care are in a direct causal relationship with the onset of death." Therefore, on July 18, 2011, the investigator of the GSU of the RF RF Marina Lomonosova opened a criminal case against the doctors of the Butyrka pre -trial detention center Litvinova (part 2, Article 109 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation: “Causing death by negligence, due to improper performance by a person of his professional duties”) and Kratov (part 2, Article 293 of the Criminal Code: “negligence, which entailed the death of a person”).
Search for switchmen
The investigation was looking for the guilty of the death of Magnitsky for almost two years. To this, Pinkertonov from the Main Directorate of the IC of the Russian Federation was pushed by colleagues of the deceased lawyer, regularly bombarding law enforcement agencies with statements about the need to investigate the death of Magnitsky. (The New Times wrote in detail about this in a series of publications (“The price of death”, No. 43, 2009, “Fractured by the System”, No. 38, 2010, “Dismissed and Awarded”, No. 38, 2010.) pressed the so -called “Cardin list”, consisting of sixty names of Russian officials involved in the deaths of Sergei Magnitsky Or to the corruption scheme, which allowed to steal 5.4 billion rubles from the Russian budget. 
The press secretary of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Markin, announced the possible initiation of a criminal case against Butyrka doctors on July 4, 2011, on the eve of the meeting of President Dmitry Medvedev with members of the Presidential Council of Human Rights, at which human rights activists transferred their report to the Magnitsky case. The list of Hermitage Capital lawyer, compiled by human rights activists, is much longer than the investigators. The doctor of the "sailor's silence" of Alexander Gaus, and investigators who were doing business appear in it.
The answer of the security forces
The report presented to Medvedev answered the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs after a month, August 2, 2011. Pavel Lapshov, the head of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the Central Internal Affairs Federal District, said that “he does not see the grounds for conducting an audit against investigator Oleg Silchenko and other members of the investigative group, and considers the conclusions of the presidential council“ not relevant ”. Investigators of the GSU SK limited themselves to initiate criminal proceedings only against Butyrka doctors, leaving aside the employees of "sailor silence." Why?
“I think that the surgeon Gaus is not charged precisely because she knows too much. She knows how Magnitsky actually died. She is deduced from responsibility so that she does not tell the whole truth, ”said Valery Borschev, chairman of the Moscow PMS.
Display from under the blow
The prosecution of the surgeon Alexander Gaus was not brought, although the conclusions of the experts participating in the fourth examination noted that on November 16, 2009, at 19 o’clock in the hospital of “sailor silence”, where Magnitsky was delivered by ambulance, he was not helped. Experts note: the patient “sharply worsened the state of health, but ... the doctor did not conduct the necessary diagnostic measures, which would prevent the progression of diseases such as diabetes and chronic active hepatitis, and ... avoid death.”

In order to refute the conclusions of experts, on July 11, six days after the meeting of Medvedev with human rights activists, at which he said that he “gave instructions to investigative structures and the Prosecutor General’s Office to collect everything on this topic”, investigator Marina Lomonosova called Leonid Shmarova, a factory department of repeated, complicated forensic examinations of the Russian Center Expertise. Among other questions, she asked him the following: “... experts established a causal relationship between the non-performance of diagnostic measures and the death of the patient. Does such medical and diagnostic measures refer to inadequate therapy, which was carried out by Magnitsky S. L. at 19 o’clock on November 16, 2009? ”
Expert Shmarov said what the investigator wanted to hear: “No, the lack of medical care in the form of non -conduct of adequate therapy at 19 o’clock on November 16, 2009 does not apply to diagnostic measures, the non -conduct of which consisted in causal connection with the adverse consequences in the form of death.” He further explained: since by November 16, 2009 “Tissues of the heart muscles of Magnitsky S.L. There were already significant changes and ... there was a low probability of a positive effect of pacemaker, then ... the probability of a positive outcome was insignificant. ”

Translated into Russian: Magnitsky was already so sick by the time of death that the doctors could still not be saved. Therefore, they did not save. And not to blame.
On July 22, 2011, investigator Lomonosov issues a decision on the appointment of an additional medical forensic examination: “The violations listed in the previous conclusion of experts were committed by various medical workers in various pre -trial detention centers of Moscow. It is necessary to solve the question: whether all the identified deficiencies of the provision of Magnitsky S.L. medical care of the total cause of the consequences (death) or can certain deficiencies that are such a cause? "
Simply put, the investigation wants the experts to confirm Shmarov’s opinion: the non-provision of medical care in the “sailor silence” is not “in a causal relationship” with the death of a lawyer Hermitage Capital.
"They will kill me now ..."
From the protocol of interrogation of the witness Gaus A.V. From December 15, 2009: “11/16/2009 I was on a daily duty. At about 18.20, a call was received about the receipt of the patient Magnitsky S.L. With a diagnosis of Pancreatitis. Arriving at the prefabricated department, I examined the patient in the paramedic’s office. During the inspection, the patient’s complaints were established that are characteristic of pancreatitis ... I began to fill out medical documents, the patient was in a metal cage ... I took a receipt about his consent to hospitalization ... The patient began to behave inappropriately, speak in elevated tones. I went to the next office, because Magnitsky’s speech prevented me from concentrating. From there I heard the noise and words of the patient ... Magnitsky said: "They will kill me here now, I am innocent in this matter, why they brought me here." I looked into the office, saw that he was running around the cage, covering his face and head with a plastic bag, as if fencing off some people, then he took his hands with a wooden couch and begins to beat her on the grill. Having suspected that the patient had acute psychosis, I ran to the headquarters, the duty officer caused an enhanced convoy. At 19.30, I called the ambulance service, then went to the patient, there were already handcuffs on it, after which I went up to my workplace in the surgical department. At about 21.20, I received a call and reported that the patient was ill ... I ran along the corridor of the prefabricated department where the cameras were located ... Magnitsky lay on the floor, the paramedic on duty made artificial ventilation of the lungs with a bag of an outpatient room ... I ordered that the patient urgently carried it to the surgical department to the fifth floor ... The effect was not given the effect, and at 21.50 was at 21.50. Clinical death has been stated. ”
“There are great doubts that there were some resuscitation measures,” says an anesthetist Timur Huseynov. “An indirect heart massage in an adult man of hypersthenic physique leads to damage to the ribs, the pathological examination did not find them.”
From the conclusion of expert No. 555/10 of June 15, 2011: “Since the reasons for the emergency medical care is indicated in the case of the disease, on which death is recorded, there is no information about the pulse frequency, about the signs that served as the reason for the start of resuscitation measures, it is not possible to reliably establish the exact time of the onset of the clinical and biological death of Magnitsky S.L.”
From the protocol of the interrogation of Vitaly Kornilov, a psychiatrist of the on-site brigade of ambulance psychiatric care (he arrived at the pre-trial detention center at 20.00, but he was allowed to the territory at 21.00): “A medical worker left for the patient, but a few minutes later returned and explained that the patient died. Biological death occurred 15 minutes before our examination ... "
And the psychiatrist Kornilov, and the paramedic of the ambulance of frosts, and the employee of the "sailor" silence of the plowmen, they say that Magnitsky died at 20.50–21.00. And only one Gaus claims that he stated his death at 21.50.
Dangerous questions
Why did the surgeon Gauus not be interested in whether the psychiatrists came, whom she called at 19.30? Why didn’t she go down to the patient at 20.00, when, according to the testimony of Dmitry Markov’s pre -trial detention center, the handcuffs from Magnitsky were removed, since he had already calmed down? Why does the act of death among other diagrams of the nozzle in the question of a closed head injury appear in the compiled GAUS? Is it because Magnitsky was "treated" with rubber batons? This is evidenced by the report available in the criminal case. According to the official version, batons, like handcuffs, were applied "in connection with the threat of committing an act of self -mutilation and suicide."
What happened in the prefabricated branch of the Sailor Sailor Sailor on November 16, 2009 from 18.30 to 21.50? Why is the “psychiatric department” written on the Magnitsky hospitalization form, and on top it is attributed to: “surgical department”? Does this mean that, taking the patient to conduct an urgent operation, the doctor Gaus assumed in advance that he could begin to “acute psychosis”? And was this psychosis? 
Language injection
Experts of the international organization “Doctors for Human Rights”, having familiarized themselves with medical documents, came to the conclusion that Magnitsky’s behavior “more like the consequences of toxic shock” than psychosis. They did not exclude that his death could occur "as a result of poisoning by any substances besides controlled (opiates, barbiturates)."
According to the notes of the GAUS in the medical history, during resuscitation measures to Magnitsky, an injection of adrenaline and atropine under the tongue was made. Professor of the Department of Anesthesiology and Resuscitation N.E. Burov, in the conclusion of May 6, 2010, notes that “the introduction of drugs into a sub -language area is an acceptable but forced extreme measure ... This technique was used in the distant past and is now perceived as an anachronism ...”
According to experts from the organization “Doctors for Human Rights”, a chopped wound in the language should have been submitted to a toxicological study. According to the protocol of the corpse of Magnitsky, this was not done.
Question: If there really were no resuscitation measures, then when Magnitsky was done this injection under the tongue and why?
It seems that the official investigation cannot or does not want to ask these questions to the GAUS surgeon. These questions are too dangerous.
Magnitsky himself, in his last records made in prison, seemed to foresee his death: "But what to do, there is no browner, everything was loaded on Magnitsky." And one more thing: “They say to me:“ Not a skeleton against the wind! ”
That is, do not resist, give up, submit. He did not obey the advice ...
The Cardin's List consists of 60 names of Russian officials.
Among them are the doctors of the Butyrka pre -trial detention center Larisa Litvinova and Dmitry Kratov. The defendants of this list at the end of July 2011 by the State Department of the United States were banned from entering the United States, and their accounts in American banks were frozen by decision of the State Department. The list is compiled by the Senator-Republican Benjamin Cardin.
