Mtsensk. In order to suppress an administrative offense, an employee of the transport police approached him and introduced himself. However, the man hit the representative of the authorities several times, and also publicly insulted the policeman in the performance of his duties, ”the prosecutor's office said.

Tarasov was charged under Part 1 of Article 318 of the Criminal Code (the use of violence that is not dangerous for life and health in relation to a representative of the authorities) and Article 319 of the Criminal Code (public insult to a representative of the authorities). He fully pleaded guilty.

The court sentenced him to pay a fine of 35 thousand rubles. The verdict, as reported, has not yet entered into legal force.

The press service of the Mtsensky District Court of Mediazone clarified the full name of the convicted 32-year-old employee of the Central Administration of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the city of Moscow-Igor Nikolaevich Tarasov.

According to the “mediazones”, it was he who went through the “swamp business” as a victim from the actions of the demonstrators during “riots” on Bolotnaya Square in Moscow on May 6, 2012.

The materials of the criminal case, which are at the disposal of the editorial office, indicates that the fighter OMON Igor Nikolaevich Tarasov was born on February 4, 1982 in the village of Kamenka of the Oryol region. At the time of the events in Bolotnaya Square, he served as an ensign in the OMON of the Central Administration of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in Moscow.

First, Tarasov went through the “swamp business” as a witness. He was recognized as the victim only in December 2012, after the press conference of Vladimir Putin, journalist Ilya Azar asked the president about the defendants in the “swamp business”. Putin replied that for participation in mass shares should not be planted, but assault against police officers is unacceptable. The next day, Alexei Polikhovich, who had previously been accused only of participating in the riots (part 2 of Article 212 of the Criminal Code), added charges of applying violence to a police officer (part 1 of Article 318 of the Criminal Code).

This happened after the fighter Igor Tarasov remembered that Polikhovich allegedly pulled his hand, which caused physical pain. Later, in court, on the first wave of “Swamp”, Tarasov admitted that he did not receive physical harm. He also did not feel moral suffering, but "he spent three days on the nerves without his wife."

As lawyer Sergei Badamshin told Mediazone, by the time Tarasov testified against Polikhovich in court in the fall of 2013, he probably already worked in the OMONA's own security department. “He worked in the USB, his colleagues did not treat him in the best way, as you understand,” the lawyer noted.

Tarasov also acted as a victim in the case of pensioners Elena Kokhtareva, who took place in the second wave of “swamp business”. According to the investigation, Kokhtareva grabbed him for the shape and body armor, and also inflicted at least three strokes on the Jetta’s protective helmet.

In February 2014, Alexei Polikhovich was sentenced to 3.5 years in prison. The verdict of Elena Kokhtareva was sentenced in August - she received 3 years and 3 months conditionally.
