Amount in words

The employee of the Corruption Fund Georgy Alburov published in his blog fragments of correspondence of the Chairman of the TFR Alexander Bastrykin with the Prosecutor General Yuri Chaika, contained in the case of the “theft” of the picture of a bad and good man from a fence in Vladimir. The FBK employee has the status of the accused in this matter.

The correspondence concerns the refusal of the deputy seagull Viktor Grin to approve the first version of the indictment. The TFR, the Deputy Prosecutor's Office said in his decision on a return on the investigation, did not provide sufficient evidence that the theft of theft was committed. “The drawing was placed in a public place that was not reserved for the exhibition, and the authorship (artist of Sergey) Sotov was not indicated in any way,” Alburov summed up the arguments of Green. “The fence is not the place of storage of something, it is impossible to establish that the objects have the owner on it. Why did not apply to the police before, but now he wrote, at all the cost of materials of 100 rubles.”

After that, Bastrykin personally addressed the Seagull with a letter, which, in particular, said: "I believe that the decision of the Deputy Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation Grin V. Ya. dated November 26, 2014 on the return of the criminal case to the investigator for the production of an additional investigation is illegal and unreasonable, and therefore it is subject to cancellation."

An employee of the FBK added that he discussed the documents discovered by him from a number of lawyers. “They say they never met such correspondence in business,” he remarked. “Even in the numerous affairs of Navalny there is no such thing.”

Alburov is charged with paragraphs “A” and “B” of part 2 of Article 158 of the Criminal Code (theft committed by a group of persons by prior conspiracy and with causing significant damage to the citizen). He faces up to five years in the colony. The defendant is under the subscription about the wizard.
