According to the author of the painting "Bad and Good Man", a criminal case has been instituted on the grounds of the crime under paragraph "in" Part 2 of Article 158 of the Criminal Code (theft), the press service of the Investigative Committee reports . This picture was seized during a search from the leader of the progress party Alexei Navalny.
“According to investigators, the unidentified person secretly stole the picture“ Bad and Good Man ”, placed for a public viewing on one of the central streets of the city of Vladimir. This picture belongs to one of the local artists. The damage from its theft is significant for the author,” the report said. The picture was attached to the criminal case as material evidence.
"At present, investigative actions are being carried out aimed at establishing the circumstances of the crime and all persons involved in the theft of someone else's property," the TFR notes.
This picture was presented to Navalny by an employee of the Corruption Fund Georgy Alburov. "The best gift from colleagues from the FBK. They still got the original for me this famous magnificent picture. Thank you, my dear ones!" - Such an entry was accompanied by a photograph of the picture on Instagram Navalny.
“Everyone is sewn about business and millions, and I have the theft of a poster from the fence,” Alburov noted on Twitter. “Interestingly, with the help of a soldering iron or an exhibition in the Tretyakovka“ Vladimir Artist ”forced to write a statement for two weeks?”
Journalists of the Jopolis publication tried to contact the author of the picture Sergei Sotov. His friend Lida reported that Sotov had left for the village and he should not call. "Yes, his paintings hang on fences in Vladimir and have no value, I hear about his statement to the Investigative Committee for the first time," Lida said.
Early in the morning on Friday , the TFR searched the Navalny in the "ATP case" under house arrest . The investigation team, which includes FSB operatives, came to Navalny at 4 a.m. The TFR explained the "urgent investigative actions" with Navalny information about the abduction of someone else's property allegedly received by law enforcement officers. “During the search, material evidence was seized,” the department said.
On the Navalny website, a list of seized during the search was published . As it turned out, his military ID, three old accounts who did not interest law enforcement officers during the Swamp case in June 2012, took his military ticket from the apartment. The seized picture is called "a pattern printed on the printer."
The press secretary of the politician Anna Vedyt regarded the search of Navalny as "another attempt to put pressure on him." “It is quite obvious that there is no need to search at 4 in the morning in the case, which allegedly took place eight years ago,” Vedita noted.
She considered the current search by the reaction of law enforcement agencies to the decision of the Moscow City Court, which on Wednesday recognized the return to the prosecutor's office of the "postal case" , one of the defendants of which is Navalny. “They did not succeed in defending their innocence in court, so they use searches as an argument,” Vedita said. “The ridiculous list of the seized, which includes a picture printed on a cardboard foundation, also includes this.”
The “ATP case”, allocated in December 2012 in a separate proceedings from the Kirovles case, is investigated in part 4 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code (fraud on an especially large scale), which provides for up to 10 years of the colony. According to the Investigation Department, in April 2007, the ATP concluded an agreement with the Allekt Naval Firm and then paid about 100 million rubles on it. Meanwhile, they say in the TFR, the services were not provided, and the received funds "Allekt" transferred one-day companies to accounts.
In February 2013, the functionaries of the decaying party Leonid Goman, Boris Nemtsova and Maria Gaidar were interrogated in the “ATP case”. Navalny himself was questioned in this case only a year later - in January 2014. As part of the investigation, he is a witness.
In December 2012, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev called the goats of the investigators in the "Swamp case" , who appeared with a search of director Pavel Kostomarov in the early morning. "They are the goats that come at 8 in the morning," the prime minister said; At the same time, Kostomarov’s search began at 7 in the morning. The remark of Medvedev caused a painful reaction of the TFR . Nevertheless, searches for political affairs, the department began only at 7 in the morning, while the investigators could appear before.
