The FSIN suspects that the leader of the Party of Progress Alexei Navalny violates the conditions of house arrest using the Internet. This was reported by Interfax with reference to the head of the FSIN Office for the Organization of Punishment, not related to deprivation of liberty, Elena Zarebinskaya.
As the official said, when such suspicions appeared, the FSINESS reports about them to the investigator ”and special units are further work.” In the case of Navalny, however, the FSIN "informed not only the investigator, but also the General Prosecutor's Office," added Zarebinskaya.
Navalny is placed under house arrest as an accused in the "postal case". He, like his brother, businessman Oleg Navalny, is charged with part 4 of Article 159 (fraud on an especially large amount committed by a group of persons by prior conspiracy and using his official position) and paragraph “A” of part 3 of Article 174.1 of the Criminal Code (laundering of funds by a group of persons by prior conspiracy).
On April 24 and 28, preliminary hearings on the "postal case" were held in the Zamoskvoretsky District Court of Moscow. According to the results of the hearing, Judge Elena Korobchenko returned the case to the prosecutor’s office , considering the incorrect qualifications of the actions of the accused, as well as taking into account a number of other violations that the defense indicated. On May 21, the court received an appeal submission of the prosecutor's office for this decision.
Previously, Navalny was under the subscription about the loss. However, on February 28, the judge of the Basmanny District Court of Moscow Arthur Karpov, at the request of the investigation, tightened the opposition to the preventive measure , sending him under house arrest. The investigation stated that Navalny has repeatedly violated the non -departure subscription regime, leaving Moscow without the permission of the investigator. The opposition, meanwhile, claimed that in reality the TFR sought toughening a preventive measure, just in order to deprive the bulk of the Internet.
On May 23,searches were held with three supporters of Navalny : the functionaries of the Party of Progress Vladimir Ashurkov and Nikolai Lyaskin and the party functionary of the party on December 5 Konstantin Yankauskas. The last two are candidates for deputies of the Moscow City Duma from the opposition coalition for Moscow. The searches were carried out in the case of the thefts that allegedly took place during the Navalny campaign in the elections of the Moscow Mayor in the summer of 2013.
Lyaskin after interrogation in the TFR was released on a subscription about a lower away in the status of a suspect. Yankauskas has a witness status. About how the search and interrogation of Ashurkov ended was not reported.
