Politsyk Stenin is transferred from the Astrakhan region to Tambov

The leader of the “Russian Astrakhan” movement Igor Stenin, sentenced to two years in a colony-settlement in the fabricated case of extremism, is transferred from the Astrakhan region to the Tambov. This was reported on Saturday by the "Caucasian Knot".

It became known about the sending Stenin to another region on October 28 at the hearing about the tightening of the Politzeki of the sentence. The judge of the Soviet District Court of Astrakhan, Natalya Popova, read out the telephone message of the FSINITS, which stated that the convicted person was transferred, so he could not be delivered to the trial.

Both the lawyer of Politsek Tatyana Ivanushkina and the prosecutor said that the idea of ​​toughening the regime should be considered with the participation of Stenin himself. Judge Popova postponed the hearing and decided to deliver the convict to them. The new meeting is scheduled for November 21; Start at 10 o’clock.

It is unknown to which colony was sent to the political prisoner. In the Tambov region there is only one colony -settlement - No. 2 in the village of Sadovy Kirsanovsky district. There, in 2014-2015, the eco-defender Evgeny Vitishko was serving time . It is possible, however, that the sections of the colony-settlement are also under other institutions of the Tambov Federal Penitentiary Service.

The decision to transfer Stenin to another region was made no later than October 21. On this day, Ivanushkina’s lawyer arrived to meet with a client in pre-trial detention center-2 in Narimanov, but she was refused a admission to the Politzek, referring to the fact that he was placed in a transit chamber.

At the same time, the lawyer remarked, at the stage of her client was sent illegally, since the convicts to the colony-settlement in accordance with the Criminal Executive Code are sent to the places of serving the deadlines on their own.

In the Astrakhan region there are no separate colonies-settlements. Stenin served a term at the section of the colony-settlement at the IK-10 general regime in the regional center. He arrived in the colony on September 9, and already on the 22nd Politzek for seven days he was sent to a schizo, and also put on a preventive record. The reason, according to the FSINCI, was that Stenin's relative tried to transfer a certain prohibited object to him.

Other penalties were not imposed on the convict. Despite this, on September 27, the head of the IK-10, Lieutenant Colonel Vladimir Ermakov, turned to the Soviet District Court with an idea of ​​the transfer of Stenin from a colony-settlement to a general regime colony. The next day, the paper went to the court, and on October 13 , the Politzeck was taken from the colony to pre-trial detention center-2 in Narimanov .

Meanwhile, the lawyer of Ivanushkin indicates that there is no sufficient reason to tighten the stenin of the sentence: the presence of one penalty does not allow the political prisoner to consider a malicious violator of the regime.

The verdict of Stenin was sentenced on May 16 by the judge of the Soviet district court Lilia Lisitskaya . She announced the activist guilty under Part 2 of Article 280 of the Criminal Code (public calls for extremism via the Internet) and gave him such a period that the prosecutor requested in the debate. The mobile phone, from which, according to the case file, the defendant made his publication, Lisitskaya decided to destroy. The process was held closed.

On July 28, the judge of the Astrakhan Regional Court Adil Tagirova confirmed the verdict to Stenin .

The FSB was initiated against the activist in January 2015. The reason was the post that Stenin, who performs on Vkontakte under the pseudonym Ingvar Stefan, published on August 28, 2014, at the height of the Russian troops on Mariupol, in the ROA Russian Astrakhan (from 14 to 88). The post consisted of only two phrases: "Death to the Kremlin invaders! Hands from Ukraine!"

At the same time, the plot of the case was fabricated - the activist, along with his text, was charged and another. Directly under the post of Stenin is the commentary of the user Sergey Romanov. Romanov copied a small text about the situation in the ATO zone, placed on the same day on a personal FB page by Ukrainian journalist Peter Shuklinov, and also gave a link to the original publication.

In the act of inspection of VK groups, Stenin's post and Romanov’s commentary were considered as two different publications. Meanwhile, in the criminal case itself it was stated that two phrases placed by an activist were the accompanying remarks to the repost of Romanov’s publication made by him.

During the investigation and further at the trial, Stenin demanded to clarify the prosecution. He emphasized that under his post above Romanov’s commentary there are likes, which would be impossible if the post and comment was one publication. However, the FSB explained the presence of like by the fact that the initial post was allegedly removed, and instead two phrases of Stenin and Romanov’s commentary were placed instead. The activist’s requirement to conduct an examination in order to correctly establish whether the record was changed, the special service rejected.

At the same time, the FSB expert, who definitely called the post and comment on the investigative experiment with various publications, later, giving testimony in court, also did not exclude the falsification of the record.

At the trial, Stenin petitioned for the introduction of his correspondence with the VKontakte support service to the case file. Support agents confirmed that Stenin’s post and Romanov’s commentary are two different publications.

The prosecutor did not object to the introduction of correspondence to business. Nevertheless, Lisitskaya refused at the request, citing the fact that she was not able to establish the personality of VKontakte support agents.

On September 30, the Presidium of the Astrakhan Regional Court received Stenin’s cassation appeal against the verdict. On October 26, her satisfaction was refused.
