Leonid Volkov is charged

The Novosibirsk Glavk of the Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee presented the head of the regional campaign headquarters of the Demo Academy Leonid Volkov a prosecution under Part 3 of Article 144 of the Criminal Code (the obstruction of the legitimate professional activity of journalists with damage to their property), which provides for six years in the colony. The politician reported this on his Twitter.

The accusation of Volkov was brought when he appeared for interrogation in his case. After the interrogation, the politician took the recognizance not to leave . He can stay in the territories of the Novosibirsk or Kostroma regions, as well as traveling in Moscow in Moscow . The next interrogation is scheduled for September 1.

“The Parnas headquarters in Kostroma requires the bosses, weekly,” Volkov quarreled before interrogation on Monday. The former chief of the Kostroma headquarters, the functionary of the St. Petersburg branch of Parnas Andrei Pivovarov, was arrested at the end of July on suspicion of unlawful access to computer information. Later he was also charged with the inflame of the police officer to exceed the official powers. After the arrest of Pivovarov, the chief of staff of the Demo Academy in the Kostroma region - the only region where the list of coalitions was made to the elections, was appointed Volkov.

The case against Volkov was opened on August 12 to deny the Lifenews employee Alexander Prezensky. On July 17, at the regional headquarters Parnassus, this television channel was shooting a visit by Alexei Navalny. According to the plot of the case, Volkov grabbed a microphone with the Lifenews logo, which the arrogance was holding in his hands, "as a result of which he damaged the rack at the base of the electronic unit and the noise protection deflector, thereby forcing the journalist to refuse to disseminate information." The damage from damage to the microphone amounted to, according to the TFR, 31.1 thousand rubles.

A group of five investigators works in the case, three of which are investigators in particularly important matters.

Meanwhile, Volkov himself rejects the accusation of the Prepans.

On August 13, the regional headquarters of the Investigative Committee opened one more thing - in part 2 of Article 142 of the Criminal Code (falsification of voter signatures committed by an organized group), which provides for up to three years of the colony. According to the department, "unidentified persons from among authorized representatives of" Parnassus falsified the subscriptions presented in the Novosibirsk Oblazbirk. “The logic is this: since I rejected signatures with a beaten, then falsification. Conveniently, Cho,” Volkov commented on the opening of the case.

In the interrogation in this case, artist Artem Loskutov, number two in the regional list of the demo department, and his mother were called as witnesses. Loskutov, located in Moscow, ignored the agenda. Meanwhile, Loskutov’s mother, as he wrote on August 20 on Twitter, visited interrogation, but did not report any details, because she took a non -disclosure subscription.
