Seven of the nine defendants in the case of Chistopol Jamaat, which has been considered in Kazan in Kazan by the visiting collegium of the Volga District Military Court (Samara), sent a statement to the media in which they protested against the closure of the hearings from the public and the press. This was reported by "IDEL. REALIALS", at the disposal of which the document turned out to be.
The 38-year-old Marat Sabirov, 33-year-old Rafael Zaripov, 38-year-old Ayrat Sitdikov, 36-year-old Almaz Galeev, 25-year-old Mikhail Martyanov, 29-year-old Ruslan Gafurov and 53-year-old Ramil Abitov spoke. The 40-year-old Jaudat Ganeyev, who insists that he was not familiar with the rest of the accused, did not join the statement, and 29-year-old Stanislav Trofimchik, remote from the courtroom until the last word after two suicide attempts.
The judicial collegium consisting of Yuri Klutkov (chairman), Igor Nikolaev and Dmitry Sirota closed the trial on November 1. This was insisted by an official of the regional prosecutor's office Andrei Kropotov, who supports the prosecution in the process, together with the prosecutor of Tataria Ildus Nafikov.
Kropotov referred to a statement by the witness of Gulnara Mingaleeva - the widow of Raisa Mingaleev, who was killed on May 1, 2014 by the police and the FSB. The deceased is considered the leader of both the Chistopol Jamaat and the other structure - the Mujahideen of Tatarstan . According to the prosecutor, Mingaleeva reported that the relatives of the defendants were put on her pressure and in this regard she was afraid of both her own life and for the life of her children.
Meanwhile, the witness did not lead any evidence of threats in the statement of the defendants.
Another argument of Kropotov was that in the process it was supposed to announce the conclusions of examinations, which contain information about the manufacture of explosive devices. However, the defendants in the case were noticed, "it is no secret to anyone that in our time such information is very easy to find on the Internet."
The actual reason for the closure of the process, the statement said, was that "witnesses of the accusations one after another began to abandon their testimonies given during the investigation, and journalists began to actively cover this," as a result of which "a violent discussion of all this began in society."
“The side of the prosecution, of course, is useless,” the defendants continue, “since people can understand the complete falsification of the criminal case against us for three years. As the testimony has been broken out, what way. If the crime were proved, it would not have been hidden from society.”
The defendants also assured that after closing the process from the public, they continue to adhere to the previously declared position, abandoning data on the investigation - "not all, but most."
The main witnesses of the charges were also indicated by the defendants, are other defendants in the case who had previously received a deal with the prosecutor's office and received deadlines in a special order. To participate in the process, they were returned to Tataria from colonies in other regions. However, it is said in the statement, these witnesses were not delivered to the court - interrogations were conducted according to the video from the pre -trial detention center -5 in Chistopol. “During their interrogations, it was heard how the answers prompted them,” the authors of the letter emphasize. “Basically, all these witnesses answered“ I don’t know ”,“ I don’t remember ”,“ I don’t want to answer ”,“ I can’t answer ”,“ A lot of time has passed ”if the journalists wrote about this?"
The protocols of the court hearings say in a letter, part of the information that sounded during interrogations of witnesses of the prosecution was not recorded.
The defendants also explained why they initially opposed the admission of journalists for hearings. One of the media, according to them, placed inaccurate information about the case. However, in the future the publication was corrected, and after that the presence of the press at meetings did not cause objections among the defendants.
Earlier, IDEL. Reali reported that the lawyers of the defendants intended to challenge the closure of the process, but it turned out that recently, after making the corresponding amendments to the Code of Criminal Procedure, it was possible to appeal such a decision only with the sentence in the case.
The process takes place in the premises of the Kazan garrison military court. Preliminary hearings took place on October 10; The proceedings on the meritshave been continuing since the 20th day of the same month . They protect the defendants, as can be concluded from media reports, lawyers for their intended purpose. All nine defendants are concluded in a pre -trial detention center.
As noted by "Idel. Reals", this is the most high -profile case of terrorism, which has been considered in Tataria over the past 10 years. In the case of more than 400 witnesses, of which 154 are witnesses of the prosecution. In mid -December, the defense witnesses were completed, and now the witnesses of the defense are interrogated.
At the preliminary hearings, the defendant trofimchik pierced his stomach with a clerical paper clip, so he needed medical care. At the beginning of the first meeting, on the merits of the case, he tried to swallow the blade, but the security forces stopped him, while hitting the current from the electric shocker and stuck into the handcuffs. After that, the judges removed the trofimchik from the hall. Meanwhile, the defendant’s lawyer noticed that he was his actions, because he previously directly declared unwillingness to participate in the process. As other lawyers said, the trofimchik, under torture, testified for other accused and now did not want to be with them at the trial.
After the prosecutor of Nafikov, the indictment by the prosecutor, all eight defendants present in the hall refused to admit guilt in terrorism. It was reported that the accusation rejects the trofimchik.
The defendant Sabirov agreed only with the charge of illegal entrepreneurship. Meanwhile, Galeev said he was completely innocent. Zaripov directly indicated that the case is based on the testimony obtained under torture. A number of other defendants also announced falsifications in the case. Ganeyev refrained from such statements: previously the Investigative Committee initiated a case against him about a deliberately false denunciation of the TSPE operatives.

According to the plot of the case, the Chistopol Jamaat was formed "from 2012 to August 2013." The prosecutor’s office calls the founders of the group the murdered in 2014 of Mingaleev, as well as Sabirov.
It is also claimed that in March 2012 - December 2013, Gafurov, with his page on a certain social network, "carried out calls for terrorist activities."
In addition, the defendants of the case are charged with home -made reactive shells of the Nizhnekamskneftekhim plant, as well as the arson of the built Orthodox Church, Sergius of Radonezh in Chistopol and the prayer house in the name of Dimitri Solunsky in the village of Lenino, Novosheshminsky district of Tataria. All these episodes, qualified as terrorist attacks, are dated to November 2013. It was reported that arson and other Orthodox churches were committed, but which ones were not specified.
Along with these defendants, the attempt on the mufti of Tataria Ildus Fayzov and the murder of his deputy Valiulla Yakupova are also charged.
It is also claimed that in August - December 2013, Sabirov and Sitdikov, in order to get funds for the activities of Chistopol Jamaat, organized an illegal collection of scrap of ferrous and non -ferrous metals. The income from this activity, according to the case file, amounted to over 8 million rubles. In order to wash the money received, the prosecution declares, Sabirov and Sitdikov bought a certain real estate, as well as the cargo "Gazelle" and industrial scales.
In October, two more episodes that were not mentioned in the media became known from the indictment. It is alleged that one of the defendants in November 2013 was looking for a place at the Kazan Station of Moscow to commit a terrorist attack. In addition, several other defendants allegedly helped Mingaleev, who at that time was hiding, food, clothes, money and weapons, and also transported him from the area to the area.
During searches in the dwellings of the defendants, stated in the case, found "more than 8 units of firearms, ammunition, explosives, explosive devices."
During the hearings, Idel. Reali, three of the accused of shelling of Nizhnekamskneftekhim - Zaripov, Sitdikov and Galeev - announced their Alibi on November 15, 2013, when, according to the prosecution, an attack was committed. In particular, Sitdikov noticed that on the morning of that day he got into an accident, and asked the college to claim confirmation of this from the traffic police. The judges, however, proposed requesting evidence of the defense of the accused. Meanwhile, the police refused to present information to the lawyer, saying that they would be given only at the request of the court.
Galeev, in turn, noted that, according to Billing, none of the accused on November 15, 2013 was in the vicinity of Nizhnekamsknefthim.
Earlier it was reported that another 13 participants in the Chistopol Jamaat have already received various terms and fines. The media, however, wrote about the sentences only five defendants in the case: Raisa Shaidullin , Daniil Mukhlisov , Dmitry Kudryavtsev, Emil Gizatullin andIldar Vafin . At different times, from December 2014 to May 2016, they received from 5 to 16 years of general or strict regime.
The arrests in the case of Chistopol Jamaatwere held in November - December 2013 . Then it was reported about 15 defendants. The regional Ministry of Internal Affairspublished information about the detention of suspects only on December 12 , and the next day it became known about the brutal torture , which the defendants are subjected to the IVS of Nizhnekamsk.
In particular, Zaripov, as a result of beating, received a rupture of the walls of the bladder, a fracture of the spike bone of the 11th vertebra and light injury. Meanwhile, Galeev was cut off the penis. At the same time, as the Russian Planet transmitted, the first deputy chief of the Nizhnekamsk city department of the Investigative Committee of Ravil Ismagilov stated that Galeev himself cut off his member with a blade from a razor machine, which he found in the IVS cell.
Martyanov, who initially declared torture, shortly after the incidents with Zaripov and Galeev, refused the lawyer by agreement and began to give confessions. In the future, he concluded a pre -trial agreement with the prosecutor Nafikov, however, at the stage of familiarization with the case file, the official terminated her, accusing the arrested of non -compliance with her conditions.
As the Bashkir human rights activist Almir Zhukov noted, the defendants in the case do not share radical views, but are not familiar with each other. “As far as I managed to understand this case, all the arrested were selected by the investigation by this principle: Muslims with a criminal past were delayed,” Zhukova said. “Someone was convicted of a fight, someone for theft by infancy. Then they came to faith and refused bad habits and the past. According to the operatives, it is easy to find an approach and force the blame for themselves.”
It is known that Galeev, who had lost the member in the IVS, was previously convicted of rape.
Messages of human rights activists about the torture of the defendants in the case attracted the attention of the regional prosecutor's office . The department conducted an audit, the materials of which sent to the Tatar department of the TFR. From there, the documents were lowered to the Nizhnekamsk Goroddel. The Presidential Council for Human Rights sent a report on torture by Alexander Bastrykin , chairman of the investigation department. Nevertheless, information about the initiation of a criminal case on the fact of torture did not appear.
