Photo: Valery Melnikov/KommersantThe Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the capital announced on Monday that a license for the private security activities of the Pantan of the Gudkov family was suspended for a month. Gennady Gudkov himself considers the recall of the license political reprisal.
Earlier, Chop has already been canceled a license to store and use weapons. Pantan is a member of the Association "Freckd", which was founded by Gennady Gudkov in the early 1990s, and the company is controlled by relatives of Gudkov.
With the fact that we are observing the act of revenge by the authorities of the deputies to the Father and the son of Gudkov, the associates in the opposition camp are jointly in solidarity. PublicPost found out how things are with the business with relatives Boris Nemtsov, Evgenia Chirikova, Ilya Yashin and Ilya Ponomarev.
The Minister of the Interior Vladimir Kolokoltsev called the behavior of Gennady Gudkov not worthy during the testing of his private security company. According to Kolokoltsev, Gudkov publicly threatened the reprisal to the inspectors and promised to organize a mass unauthorized rally near the Ministry of Internal Affairs, ”the Izvestia newspaper writes.

We will go through the entire standard procedure for trials and appeals to the prosecutor's office, this has already been done. I am not sure in a positive outcome, because if the court is provided with the same pressure as on the police officers that check the private security company, then the appeal there is pointless. The prosecutor's office has been keeping delicate silence for the eleventh day. Despite the fact that the application for unlawful actions and abuse of authority was written on the 12th. Everyone is absolutely clear that this is a reduction in political accounts. The company is destroyed. There is no point in restoring it. Only if in order to return the weapon. You can’t return the contract base, you can’t return customers.
This is only the beginning of the Marlezon Ballet of Revenge, which was promised and planned to me. The reasons are also clear: I refused to change beliefs and principles, condemn the protest movement, get out of it, try to influence the son of Dmitry so that he also leaves the protest. What we see is an act of revenge or indicative flogging. All this is invented and attracted by the ears. Well, how can an enterprise work for 20 years work without serious complaints - and here it is? Moreover, the solutions are first made, and then it is explained why. Weapons were seized, and then explained why. With a license - the same thing. What can I say? I thought that our power is smarter, that there are people who think by political categories. And everything turned out to be trite. The authorities chose the path to confrontation, the path to repression, the course on the pressure of the opposition. This is not only in such a situation: they fired Ksenia Sobchak, arrested Navalny and Udaltsov, Yashin was locked in a cage, etc. This is a mediocre, stupid policy of the current government in conditions when they, like shagen skin, are reduced by public support. Since they want it so, then it will be so.

I'm afraid for relatives, of course. I understand that the power is vindictive and petty, and for it there are no moral restrictions in pressure on opponents. The fact that they begin to pursue relatives, put pressure on the family business, suggests that they can do anything with anyone. Therefore, of course, there are some fears. It is necessary in practice to implement the slogan - one for all, all for one. We will defend Gudkov and his family, I hope the situation is normalized. I still have no such problems as Gudkov.
Evgenia Chirikova, ecologist
I believe that this is a sign of time when they try to put pressure on relatives of people who are engaged in social activities not within the framework of the party of crooks and thieves. It does not work, for example, to put an opposition deputy in prison - nothing, which means they will put pressure on his relatives. I believe that this system is wrong and it is necessary to fight it. Imagine - if they are so pressed on a person with immunity, what can they do with a person who does not have this immunity? You can put pressure so that they will crush at all. We must say a decisive "no" to such actions.
As for my small engineering business, pressure continues on it. Literally last week, the investigator tried to present a summons of an interrogation of an interrogation in an incomprehensible case of tax. We all pay taxes, and we have a small business, and not some big oil. On the other hand, it is clear that such attention to our business, which has already been 20 years old, has become aggravated in recent years, when I began to actively engage in social activities. So, the investigator Vasiliev came from Nizhny Novgorod with the agenda and literally pursued me and my relatives. He tried to penetrate the place of my registration, to my mother, he laid me and my daughter in the entrance, pounced on us. I see psychological pressure here. I feel it constantly. Either "nurses", then NTVshniki, now the investigator. The investigator went to the neighbors, interrogated them about my children and relatives. I advised Vasiliev to fight against crooks and thieves and engage in real problems, and not pursue mothers with children.
You can protect yourself from this only with the help of publicity. We are building civil society not to scold Putin, but in order to help each other. Therefore, only publicity. I believe that it is necessary to personify those people who make such custom -made collisions. If they come to our house, then, I think, you need to come to them home, tell the neighbors what things they do. So that people do not want to carry out such dirty orders.
Boris Nemtsov, co -chairman of the Parnas party
I have everything the same as Gudkov, in the past. The style of bandits in power is the same and does not change: they are trying to destroy the financial basis of life and turn people into vassals and slaves. There was nothing this time in relation to the Gudkovs. They are afraid of them, they are trying to tame them, to enlighten. Always act the same. They will stand - it means they will be respected. They will not stand it - they will trample to the end.
I had a business related to commercial real estate, they destroyed it, and I left everywhere except the stock market. It was in 2004-06. If you are in opposition, then under Putin you cannot do any business. This is an axiom. The only market that is available is the stock market over the Internet. They cannot yet destroy it, but probably think how to do it.

Ilya Ponomarev, State Duma deputy, Fair Russia party
Since I have long been engaged in opposition activities, everything that could be “shooting” was “shot”. I also had a business in Russia, and it was safely committed. At the moment, no one is doing business in my family. But there are other pressure mechanisms, not only through business, but, for example, in children through school. But it is difficult to take me from this side. It is impossible to defend yourself from such attacks. Business must be engaged outside the territory of the Russian Federation, or it’s better not to do it.
It’s hard to rely on people who are engaged in business, I saw a lot of cases when it was the cause of betrayal.
They didn’t press on my relatives, another thing was - they went through all my partners, but it was still at the stage when I had an election campaign this fall. All friends faded about the topic not to give money.
