Repetition in the form of farce

The state prosecution in the trial in the case of Kirovles demanded for the defendants Alexei Navalny and Peter Officer Punishment in the form of conditional imprisonment. This was written on Twitter by Navalny.

Prosecutor Sergei Bogdanov demanded that Navalny sentence in the form of five years in prison, officer - four years also of conditional punishment.

"As I said: it is important for them to just ban me to participate in the elections. Therefore, you just need to return to me the verdict that canceled the ECHR," Navalny noted.

In the Leninsky District Court of Kirov, the debate of the parties continues. Protection will demand for the defendants an acquittal.

On January 23, Officer’s lawyer Svetlana Davydova, in a petition for the withdrawal of judge Alexei Vtyurin, said that the Supreme Court was demanding that the defendants of the Kirovles case be given real terms . On January 19, Davydova said, from a conversation between judges in the lobby of the institution, she became aware that the chairman of the Leninsky District Court Konstantin Zaitsev recently traveled to the Armed Forces "and he was told there that Navalny and officers should get real terms, they would not let anyone go."

The trial in the case of Kirovles is carried out again. In July 2013, Navalny received five in this case, and officers - four years of general regime, both with a fine of 500 thousand rubles. However, in October of the same year, the Armed Forces replaced both real terms with conditional.

However, in February 2016, the ECHR recognized the violation of the right of defendants to a fair trial. In connection with this decision on November 16 , the Presidium of the Armed Forces canceled the verdict and sent the case for re -consideration to the Leninsky district court of Kirov.

The repeated process lasts from December 5, 2016 .

On Monday, Judge Vthurin satisfied the request of the state prosecution of the forced drive of Navalny and Officer . "Both defendants did not appear at two court sessions, at the end of last week and today, so the prosecution was a request to bring them to the court. It was satisfied," a source in court said. The interlocutor of the agency.

On Wednesday, Vthurin chose a preventive measure for Navalny and Officer in the form of a subscription about the no to leave until February 10. The question of choosing a preventive measure was raised by the judge himself. Vtyurin explained such a need for the failure to appear of the defendants at two previous meetings.

Navalny and officers refused to subscribe to the wizard from Kirov. "Navalny told reporters that he intends to be at the opening of his election headquarters in St. Petersburg this Saturday. He directly connects the judge’s decision with his plans to visit the Northern capital," the Echo of Moscow reported.
