A terrible place
Ukrainian pilot, deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Nadezhda Savchenko asks the international community to convince the Russian authorities to transfer the judicial consideration of its case from Donetsk, Rostov Region to Moscow. Her appeal to the Secretary General of the UN Pan Hi Mun, PACE Chairman Ann Brasser and the head of the European Parliament Martin Schultsu was published by lawyer Mark Feigin.
Savchenko believes that the jurisdiction of her case to the Donetsk court is doubtful, and the venue of the court is chosen "with the political goal" - to prevent the normal operation of the defense and prevent the press to cover the process. In addition, Donetsk serves as a “transshipment point for crossing Russian weapons and pro -Russian separatists to the so -called LPR and DPR.” There are constantly many armed militants. Savchenko writes that this jeopardizes the life of her lawyers and relatives.
Savchenko also fears that the FSB simply may not let both her family and deputies of the Verkhovna Rada, Pase and the European Parliament into the "border zone".
"I ask you to contact the leadership of Russia with an urgent request to ensure normal and safe conditions of the trial, and in particular on the transfer of consideration to the court in the city of Moscow," Savchenko writes.
On Monday, Deputy Prosecutor General Viktor Grin approved the indictment in the case of Savchenko. The case was sent for consideration in the Donetsk City Court of the Rostov Region . The choice of the court is explained by the fact that, according to the plot of the case, Savchenko crossed the border with Russia precisely in the area of the Donetsk border post. Since August last year, through this border station in Ukraine, captured by militants, humanitarian convoys have been sent from Russia.
The official representative of the Investigative Committee Vladimir Markin noted in connection with the transfer of the case to the court that Savchenko was facing up to 25 years in the colony. The maximum sanction under Part 2 of Article 105, which was imputed by the pilot, is a lifelong conclusion, Markin explained, but the Criminal Code does not allow women to say for life terms.
Last week, after acquaintance, Savchenko and her lawyers with the case file, the hostage tightened the charge . As the lawyers explained, the entire plot remained the same, but the qualifications of actions imputed by the pilot changed - it was excluded from the case of paragraph 5 of Article 33 of the Criminal Code (aiding).
Thus, the points “A”, “E”, “f”, “l” of part 2 of Article 105 (the murder with a generally hazardous method of two or more persons based on political hatred, a perfect group of persons), part 3 of Article 30 are the points, “A”, “E”, “F” of Article 105 (the attempt on the same crime) and part 1 of Article 322 of the Criminal Code (illegal crossing of the border).
Earlier it was reported that Savchenko forced the study of the case file . “I do not consider it necessary to spend more than my life in prison,” she explained. “For all procedural consequences, I take responsibility for myself, since I believe that the institution of advocacy in Russia does not make sense as such, since the law does not apply in Russia.”
