At the same time, several sources confirmed the on the eve of the information that the murder of opposition Boris Nemtsov has been prepared since 2014. At the same time, a family lawyer Vadim Prokhorov said that these data have long been in business and were not news for him.
Investigators believe that the murder of Nemtsov could prepare since mid -2014, a source familiar with the situation told Interfax . “The investigation shows that in the fall, active preparation of the murder has already begun, and the order was received even earlier,” the agency’s interlocutor said.
Another source told reporters that the investigation has evidence that preparation for a crime began back in October-November 2014. "The dates of the purchase of a car, renting apartments with arrested defendants confirm this version. Records from video surveillance cameras at the Nemtsov house were also studied," the agency’s interlocutor explained. According to the source, the testimony of some witnesses also confirm these operational data.
Meanwhile, the lawyer of the Nemtsov family said that the materials on the start of preparation of the murder in October 2014 have long been in the case. "This is not news for me. I always said that, according to a number of data, the preparation of the murder began no later than the end of autumn," the defender said.
It is worth noting that thanks to information about the start of preparation of a crime in 2014, a version of the murder of Nemtsov from religious revenge may disappear in the case. Earlier, investigators suggested that politics could kill for the support of cartoonists of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. Journalists, including publishing cartoons on the Prophet Muhammad, were killed during the attack in the editorial office of the publication that occurred on January 7, 2015.
Earlier, sources in law enforcement agencies reported that investigators consider the version of the murder for the sake of religious revenge "frankly weak." Probably, now the investigation will have another version: that the crime was committed because of the disagreement of attackers with the socio-political activity of the opposition as a whole.
Witness: Dadaev bought a ZAZ Chance car in October 2014
In addition, investigators held a confrontation between Dadaev and the manager of the Avtostail car dealership, Kommersant reports. Seeing the main accused in the case, the seller said that it was this person who bought black Zaz Chance from him. Moreover, the deal was made on October 16, 2014. On a car of this particular brand, according to investigators, the killer of Nemtsov arrived and left the scene of the crime.
It turned out that Dadaev was remembered by the seller with his unusual name. The manager at first did not hear him and the buyer had to repeat: "Za-Ur."
Among all the cars put up for the sale of cars, the ten -year -old Chance produced the Zaporizhzhya Automobile Plant chosen. The alleged murder executor asked to arrange a car not on himself, but to his sick brother, whose seller did not remember the name. The manager doubted the legality of the transaction, but after consulting with the management of the car dealership, he issued the necessary documents.
The defense of Dadaev, in turn, sent a request to the Severnoye Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation stationed in Chechnya, in which Dadaev served. The alleged murder executor claims that he saw the manager who identified him for the first time, since he did not leave the location of the unit last fall, and came to Moscow only on New Year's holidays, receiving another vacation before dismissal.
At the same time, the lawyers of the defendants in the case deny any connection between their clients and the car, which was involved in the murder. “Attempts by the investigation to tie Dadaev or Gubashev to ZAZ Chance testify precisely that they have nothing to do with this car,” the defender Dadaeva Shamsudin Tsakaev told Kommersant. “After all, we all perfectly understand that people who intended the murder would never use the car for this. visiting card ".
The testimony of the witness and the defendants of the case contradict each other
The new information in the case concerning the ZAZ Chance car is fundamentally contrary to the evidence of the defendants in the criminal case. As follows from the March interrogation of Dadaev, a foreign car specifically for the murder of Nemtsov was provided to him by a certain incident of the Chechen Rusik.
In January 2015, Rusik, penetrated by the idea of eliminating the “enemy of all Muslims”, provided the executors of the murder of ZAZ Chance without documents, but with the Makarov pistol lying in the glove compartment, and also promised them a reward of 25 million rubles. Due to the lack of technical passports on Zaporozhets, future defendants in the criminal case, according to Dadaev, were afraid to once again use the “gift” of Rusik.
In addition, Anzor Gubashev told the investigation that he allegedly bought a car long before the murder, without showing the seller his documents, since they were "nothing to do with him." As the second one who admitted in involvement in the murder explained, he made a deal "in the usual way, as all people buy."
Later, both defendants refused their March testimony, explaining that they were given under pressure. The version of the purchase of a car, voiced by the manager-seeker, was already the third in a row.
