Law enforcement officers of the United Arab Emirates detained four Russians in Dubai, among whom was the brother of the famous Chechen lawyer Murad Musaev , the defender of the accused of the murder of journalist Anna Politkovskaya and Colonel Yuri Budanov.
The Russians were detained in the case of robbery, RIA Novosti was told in the Russian General Consulate in Dubai. "We sent the appropriate note to the UAE Foreign Ministry, but today we did not receive an answer to it," said the representative of the Consulate General.
Musaev himself gave a detailed comment about what happened on Facebook , noting: “Three days my friends from all the well -known services tried to shove into the information space“ News ”about the adventures of my younger brother in Dubai. They sprinkled it today through Izvestia . It was this newspaper that the newspaper was the first to report the detention of Muslim Musaev. According to 18 hours, the notice was not said that the younger brother was not said that the younger brother was not said. The lawyer is precisely the accused, but it is noted that he is undergoing a suspect in the case.
However, Murad Musaev explains everything differently, stating that his brother suffered actually because of his kindness and responsiveness. "Muslim has been living and engaged in a completely legal business in Dubai for several years. He did not participate and did not need to participate in any crimes, and he is not accused of committing a robbery. At the end of last year, Muslim, whom many knew in the Russian-speaking Dubai, was addressed by a compatriot. This person had some" places for those places), because of which he could not), because of which he could not). Rent a hotel room. "
“Entertaining, my brother did not refuse the requester and let him go to the hotel, where he himself rents the whole floor,” the lawyer continues. “A couple of weeks after the guest left it turned out that he allegedly committed some kind of robbery and was hiding from the authorities. Everything with whom the alleged robber spoke over the past month was about 15 people.” My brother became no exception.
According to the defender Budanov, the incident is almost exhausted (Izvestia claims that the lawyer himself went to Dubai to help his brother). “According to the investigator, the only claim to him by the authorities is to violate the regime of registration of the guest at the hotel. This is an administrative misconduct, and in the near future Muslim should be released,” Musaev explains on Facebook.
Note that not so long ago, Murad Musaev had to communicate tightly with law enforcement officers in Russia. In November last year, the Investigative Committee opened two criminal cases against Musaev, united in one proceeding. The lawyer was charged with the bribery of witnesses (Part 4 of Article 309 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) and the pressure on the jury. Searches were held in his apartments, it was even reported that a gun was found. There was also information that the brother of the lawyer was questioned in the case, but the other was the eldest.
