The Corruption Foundation filed six claims against the Prosecutor General Yuri Chaika in four different metropolitan ships. Six different medias - RBC, Kommersant, Rain, Vedomosti, Echo of Moscow and Elephant act as co -consumers in the case.
The founder of the Foundation Alexei Navalny in his blog apologized to the “respected media” for inconvenience. Navalny argued such a “overkill” of the vessels by the fact that the lawsuit to protect honor and dignity can be filed with the court at the choice of the plaintiff.
“We wanted to get rid of the Tver district court. He is engaged and judges by the political reasons of the "swamps". In fact, this is a branch of the Presidential Administration, ”the lawyer of the Foundation Ivan Zhdanov revealed the motives of the FBK. It was for this that the FBK used the claim to the co -stands. “In addition, the Tver court has already written that the seagull supposedly did not mean specifically FBK and specifically Navalny. And from the media reports, he testifies that he had, ”the lawyer notes. According to Zhdanov, the FBK chose independent media. “After the lawsuit is accepted, we will abandon the requirements for the media,” the lawyer said. However, he believes that many will continue to participate in the process in order to have access to operational data and the case file.
The editor -in -chief of Echo of Moscow Alexei Venediktov told NT that lawyers of the publication will be according to the standard scheme. “This is not the first time that we are presented with lawsuits as coats. We will calmly go to court, ”Venediktov explained the position of Echo. According to him, the publication expects Yuri Chaika’s response to Alexei Navalny, where the “echo of Moscow” will also act as a co -defendant. “We are the publisher of the official point of view of an official. We will go to court and prove that we are not responsible for the words of the prosecutor or for the investigation, ”the editor -in -chief of the radio clarify the possible prospects of the case.
Earlier, the Moscow courts three times refused the FBK to accept the claim to protect honor and dignity against Yuri Chaika. The Tver District Court of Moscow refused to accept the lawsuit, since "there is no mention of the plaintiffs in the statements of the defendant." The Presnensky court returned the case of the Tver court because the “location of the General Prosecutor's Office is jurisdiction” to him. He, in turn, again refused to accept the lawsuit due to the fact that representatives of the plaintiffs did not have a “properly” executed power of attorney.
