Putenikhin was arrested until December 30
Judge of the Tver Court Elena Stashin authorized the arrest until December 30 of the activist of another Russia Dmitry Putenikhin, who doused the prosecutor Alexei Smirnov after the verdict in the case of riots on Manely Square ( 
Putenikhin was taken to the court under a reinforced escort from the black move, the riot police cordoned off the court. According to the press service of another Russia, during the meeting, the charges were read out. They provide the words of investigator Alexander Petrichenko, who stated that Putenikhin "is engaged in the undermining of the constitutional system and consists in an extremist organization of the NBP." According to the prosecutor, the incident with dousing the prosecutor with water has a “exceptional character” and Putenikhin needs to be arrested. A criminal case has been instituted against the activist under part 2 of Article 296 of the Criminal Code ("The threat of the life of a representative of the authorities"), the sanction of which provides for up to two years in prison.
Lawyer Svetlana Sidorkina said that there is no reliable evidence that Putenikhin could hide from the investigation and court. According to Sidorkina, not a single grounds for the arrest of Putenikhin - of those listed in Articles 97 and 108 of the Code of Criminal Procedure - the investigation was not presented. The prosecutor Smirnov could file a civil lawsuit against Putenikhin, but he chose an unprecedentedly tough and inadequate option, Sidorkina said.
Putenikhin himself said in court that he did not threaten Smirnov’s life. “I ask you to retraperate an administrative violation, and I am ready to bear punishment,” he said.
Sidorkina asked the court to hear Oleg Kashin, who had long known with Putenikhin, as well as the Grani Boroko correspondent, who was shooting at the Tver court on October 28 as witnesses to the Kommersant's journalist. However, Stashin rejected these petitions. She also did not take into account the positive characteristics from the Sakharov Center, with which Putenikhin collaborates. In addition, Stashin did not take into account that Putenikhin did not legally judge. The criminal record has already expired, and Putenikhin fulfilled all the duties of a conditionally convicted person, was a timely registration with the inspection and did not change the place of residence.
On the eve of Sidorkina filed two complaints to the Tver court against the actions of the investigator Petrichenko. According to her, the investigator issued Putenikhin’s detention yesterday. The complaint was also filed with the actions of the district police officer, which after the detention issued an administrative protocol under article 20.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses.
According to Sidorkina, "in the actions of Dima there is a definitely lack of corpus delicti." "The composition of the 296th article lies in threats, causing harm to life and health. In the phrase" will not forget, we will not forgive ", which is heard in the video (it said Putenikhin. - Ed.), And without the help of the linguist it is clear that there is no threat to the life and health of the prosecutor. The video also confirms that the phrase" Death to the prosecutors "is only attributed to Penetenikhin, and it is not attributed to it. Shouted, ”Sidorkina said.
“In the actions of Dima there is no corpus delicti and by insulting a representative of the authorities (Article 319 of the Criminal Code), even if they want to impose this article. The obligatory element of insults or words expressed in an indecent form,” the lawyer added.
Legal analysts of the Association of Agora also believe that there are no grounds for the arrest of Putenikhin. "The 296th article of the Criminal Code refers to crimes of minor gravity, and the arrest can be elected only in 4 cases, the closed list of which contains the legislation: if there is no permanent place of residence in Russia, if a person is not established, if the previously elected preventive measure was violated and if the suspect tried to hide from the investigation authorities," the Agora reported.
On October 28, the Tver court sentenced to prison terms from two to 5.5 years of five defendants in the case of riots on Manezhnaya Square that occurred in December 2010. The deadlines were received by activists of "another Russia" Igor Berezyuk, Kirill UNCHUK and Ruslan Khubaev, nationalists Leonid Panin and Alexander Kosevin.
