The Governor of the Pskov Region Andrei Turchak asked the executors of the attempt on Oleg Kashin to injure his hand to the journalist, "so as not to write all sorts of Pasquili," the accused of crime, Danila Veselov, claims. The video recording of his recognition is published in the program "Kashin. Guru" on the Rain TV channel.
Veselov talks about a meeting in a Moscow restaurant with the customers of the attack - the head of the Zaslon holding Alexander Gorbunov and Turchak. "Gorbunov invited me to the table. We sat down. He said, apparently, for whom all this is done - this is done for the Turchak - and asked me to report on the work done earlier. I said that we are looking for a person is difficult because it was so much. In general, the Turchak said that he would quickly be delayed," says Veselov.
According to Kashin, the video was given to him by the wife of Veselova Elena. Investigators intend to take non -disclosure from her, but she refuses.
On September 7, Kashincalled the names of the enclosed but him - the chief of the security of the mechanical factory Veselov and his two subordinates, Vyeslav Borisov and Mikhail Kavtaskin. After the arrest of Gorbunov, Kashin noted that in 2010, communicating with the Live Journal, he quarreled with the governor. “Tourchak threatened me in LiveJournal, and then I was also transferred to me separately from the Turchak,” the journalist wrote.
On September 19, the Rain TV channel published a recording of Gorbunov’s conversation , where he offers the interlocutors not to meet for six months, and then change the documents and start a “new life”. The audio recording to journalists was also conveyed by Veselov’s wife. According to her, the husband also recorded a meeting with Gorbunov and Turchak on the recorder. “This record, made shortly before the attack, Veselov refused to provide Rain, considering her the only effective tool in defense of her husband. She fears for his life,” the channel noted.
On Wednesday, Mediazon, citing a source close to the investigation, said that Veselov at a confrontation with Gorbunov called him and Turchak by the customers of the attack on Kashin . According to Veselov, a one and a half to two months before the attack by Gorbunov called him to his office and said that Kashin insulted Turchak in the media, and instructed to establish a place of residence of the journalist. Gorbunov promised the rest of the instructions to give later. Initially, it was about the fact that Kashina may have to be poured with green, Veselov said.
Around mid -October 2010, Gorbunov invited Veselov to a restaurant. The meeting was attended by a man whom Gorbunov presented as Turchak, "the man who was offended by journalist Kashin," said Veselov. They were interested in the course of searches, rushed him and asked to find Kashin as soon as possible. The source of the publication noted that, according to Veselov, only after this meeting he bought a voice recorder to be safe.
A few days later, Gorbunov called Veselov to a new meeting and demanded that the performers of the attempt "meet the journalist and injure his limbs, arms and legs." Veselov claims that his wife has a record of this conversation.
The attack on Kashin was committed the next day. After Veselov’s return to Petersburg, Gorbunov thanked him and handed him a bag, in which there were about three million rubles in cash. Veselov claims that he handed over 300 thousand of them to Kavtaskin, one million to the direct performer of the crime of Borisov, and left two million to himself. Gorbunov said that the performers need to hide, and they left for Belarus, said Veselov. He also recorded this and all subsequent conversations with Gorbunov.
Most of the testimony of Veselov is false, Gorbunov said during the confrontation. Veselov stipulates him due to the fact that he and all the faces he mentioned are involved in his abduction, says Gorbunov. He emphasized that the meetings were not related to the organization of the attack on Kashin. The fact of meeting with Veselov and Turchak in the Moscow restaurant Gorbunov also categorically denies. According to Gorbunov, he did not discuss with Turchak the insult inflicted by that Kashin.
