Opium for a luther

The Kaluga Police intends to put on the wanted list of the pastor of the local Lutheran Church Dmitry Martyshenko for drug trafficking. But known in the city of Martyshenko as an opponent of the governor Anatoly Artamonov.

“A criminal case on slander was opened against me. [...] 05/05/2014 was a search at my house, all computers and hard drives were seized. A few hours later, at night 05/06/2014 they searched the church. In the refectory, where people gather and drink tea, in an armchair, between the armrest and the seat they found a pink box, and in it a bag and unknown powder stocked in cellophane. On the eve of the church there was a strange parishioner who shown to me, who was sitting on this chair for a long time, was present in the service and left. She said she would come to

The next resurrection. I think that Anatoly Artamonov decided to fulfill his promise and hide me in prison, ”the last record in the Kaluga pastor of VKontakte reads the last one at the moment.

Examination showed that powder is 3.5 grams of heroin. In addition to the clergy, the 43-year-old Pastor Martyshenko tried himself in a variety of matters: he was an individual entrepreneur, secretary of the trade union of vehicles, assistant to the State Duma deputy, initiator of a number of Internet projects, etc. He led Business Russia in

Kaluga and studied at the Moscow School of Political Research, collaborated with Mikhail Kasyanov. “He is very active, participates in all elections,” the head of the Memorial human rights center in the Kaluga region, Lyubov Moiseeva Elier, told the OTD-Info.

Martyshenko in Kaluga as a political video blogger is most famous - about a thousand videos are placed in your YouTube account .

“I have a conflict with a migration service as a human rights activist. I asked Martyshenko to help me with the filming within the migration service. He shot the material. In the material there were threats personally addressed to me. Unfortunately, after the search, the material disappeared, ”says Moiseeva Elya.

Another example of the topic for which he was taken: the chairman of the Kaluga Legislative Assembly deprived the premises of the Fair Russia faction of four people, and they took the reception of citizens on the street. Martyshenko shot this and placed it on YouTube.

“He is always called to where the protection of the legal rights of citizens is needed, where an objective fixation of what is happening on the video camera is required. Thanks to his activities, the problems of Kaluga entrepreneurs, the protests of the residents of Detchino against the construction of the garbage processing plant, violations in the accreditation of school No. 6 in Kaluga, the low -quality work of builders in the construction of houses for veterans of the Second World War and much more received the problems of the Caluga Communist Party of the Communist Party of the Criminal prosecution of the pastor.

The Communists confirm the version of the threats of the pastor from the governor, since Artamonov, as they claim, most often falls into the Martyshenko lens: “For two reasons. Firstly, the governor himself positions himself as a single decision-making center. Therefore, the majority of both positive and negative events are associated with him. Secondly, the governor himself chose Dmitry Martyshenko with his constant target. The unfounded and unproven accusations by Artamonov of the Martyshenko’s relations with the State Department of the United States, CIA, etc., threats against the blogger have long become the norm of the Governor of the Kaluga Region. ”

The case of slander, which became the reason for the search, during which heroin was found, was excited in connection with the roller of the pastor "Artamonov Patron or Muddle?" in which the governor, Self -defense of the Maidan and Kaluga nationalists appeared. The message of the video is not clear to the end, but 4 nationalists wrote a statement to Martyshenko for comparing them with the “right sector”. The day after the search on the site, the Kaluga intersection appeared material from a user, which stated that the archive of Edward Snowden was discovered a document on the CIA Martyshenko agent.

After the criminal case was instituted, Martyshenko was detained for 48 hours, but released from the police. According to Pastor's friends, Martyshenko was examined by a drug dispensary to prove that he did not use drugs.

“They took everything that you can: hard drives, equipment, documents, phones,” says Moiseeva-Elya about the results of the search. And after the heroin was found in the church, the pastor disappeared, and now his whereabouts are unknown. Kaluga Police intends to put him on the wanted list.
