The organizers and leaders of BORN are Tikhonov and Ilya Goryachev, extradited from Serbia. Their affairs were allocated into separate production. Tikhonov fully pleaded guilty and made a deal with the investigation. On September 24, he was sentenced to 18 years in a colony in addition to a life sentence. On January 29, 2015, the Supreme Court upheld this sentence . Goryachev, whose case has not yet been transferred to court, on the contrary, did not admit guilt through any imputed episode.
Another member of BORN, Alexei Korshunov, put on the wanted list and hidden in Ukraine, in October 2011 died from an accidental explosion of his own grenade .
On November 19, 2014, during the first interrogation in the case, Born Tikhonov said that Goryachev told him about his acquaintances in the presidential administration and other power structures and proposed in the interests of the authorities to attack representatives of political opposition.
The next day, Evgenia Hasis, the civil wife of Tikhonov, who was serving an 18 -year term for complicity in the murder of Markelov and Baburova, made the testimony. She said that the curator of Born in the AP was Leonid Simunin , also known as the former head of the Lyubertsy branch of the Prochrevsky movement "Local". Earlier, Oleg Kashin accused Simunin of involvement in the attempt that the journalist was subjected to in November 2010. In August 2014, the New Gazeta wrote that the functionary was sent by the Kremlin in the "DPR" supposedly to provide assistance in the field of energy.
According to Hasis, Simunin in open text ordered Goryachev the murder of an FSB officer, promising to pay 5 thousand euros for this. Goryachev handed the order to Tikhonov, but he flatly refused the proposal, saying that he was a revolutionary, and not a hired killer.
In the fall of 2009, Hasis added, Goryachev told Tikhonov that it would be desirable to kill any judge - which one, it doesn’t matter. He handed Tikhonov a list of judges who were doing against the nationalists. There was Chuvashov on this list.
However, Goryachev, questioned in the process of December 22, said that he was not connected with the AP and was not familiar with her former first deputy head Vladislav Surkov. The question of Goryachev’s acquaintance with Simunin, Judge Kozlov removed. The witness also categorically rejected his involvement in Born.
