Navalny - the judge: "Your honor, this time I did not like at all"

The process in the “Cirules case” ended: the prosecutor's office asked for the same punishment for the defendants as the last time

On Thursday, Peter Officers did not have time to finish his testimony, because at exactly five in the evening - the time of the end of the working day - the judge said that he needed a doctor. Davydova’s lawyer was indignant: her client officer on Tuesday was forcibly discharged from the Moscow hospital to participate in court. Prosecutors interrogated officers on Friday. The entrepreneur, too,, like Navalny the day before, was surprised at the small number of issues that the accusation never reached the point.

The prosecutors clarified how he learned about the existence of KOGUP Kirovles (“with the help of wonderful search engines of Yandex, Rambler and Google,” officers answered kindly), but about the osstata itself 16 million, in which the defendants are accused and did not ask.

Yesterday, Judge Vthurin had already rejected the request for the study of the Kirovles vacation prices, preventing the defense to prove that the officers and his VLK bought the forest not at low, but at market prices. Today, on Friday, the defense once again tried to get to the key topic with market prices for the forest: I requested an economic examination.

- Your honor, do not leave! Cried Navalny. - We have chrying on you yesterday, you spend more time in an advisory room than in court!

- When a petition of 10 sheets appears, I need to read and draw conclusions! - the judge explained sternly and moved to the advisory room to think about the decision.

- Well, you still reject it! - the politician tried to reason (and turned out to be right - the judge refused at the application). Navalny was in a hurry and asked to finish the process today, and early: he was going to get to St. Petersburg from Kirov to open the headquarters of his campaign there on Saturday. And the judge Vthurin, who still inexorably placed Navalny and Officer on Wednesday, and calmly allowed him to leave.

So by the middle of the day in court reached the penultimate stage of the process - the debate of the parties. The prosecutor Bogdanov once again outlined the plot of the accusations, migrated directly from 2013: Navalny and officers “with a criminal intent” created a “Vyatka forest company” controlled by themselves, officers “organized an obviously unprofitable agreement and signed it on behalf of the VLK”, the defendants are trying to justify themselves, “bypassing the most unprofitable moments by silence.” Immediately the prosecutor's office announced the desired punishment, and this turned out to be a conditional term. For 5 years to Navalny and 4 years, an officer, plus 500 thousand of a fine - exactly with such a sentence they left Kirov in 2013.

Hearing that the prosecution does not ask for a real prison term, as last time, the defense side relaxed somewhat and began to frighten. Especially the lawyers attacked part of the prosecution about the damage to Kogup of 16 million rubles.

In 2009, officers bought wood from Kirovles for 16 million, but, having sold it, paid almost 15. “The composition of the crime is in the fact of the alienation of forest products. Further implementation of the forest does not play a role, ”the prosecution said.

“If a million rubles are taken, and 999 thousand are put in its place, is this theft of a million?” - asked the lawyer Kobzev.

- In case of non -fulfillment of the decision of the ECHR, the country faces the deprivation of membership in the Council of Europe. Because of your sentence! "

About this very decision of the ECHR - about the abolition of the previous sentence - the prosecutors said that it "did not have a pre -established force."

"How is that? Russia ratified the UN Convention, obliged to execute the decisions of the International Court. The prosecutor's office of the Kirov region does not agree with the decision of the Russian Federation? " - Mikhailov’s lawyer was amazed, adding that if the prosecution does not take into account the conclusions of the ECHR, they will have to meet in this court “to infinity”, considering the case again. Navalny himself is also sure that the new sentence, if he repeats the old one, will be able to cancel again in the European court, and quickly - even before the presidential election. So he will still take part in them. “No offense, your honor, but this time I did not like it at all! - the politician stood up. - We arranged the meetings, thought: what trick they would come up with to condemn me again. But there is no trick. All blunders from the last time, all the indictment is one to one. ”

The process really managed to finish in one day - so today the defendants uttered the last word. For Navalny, this is already the seventh speech. He turned to those who “inspire this process”: “What the prosecutor said is a message to me:“ We once again warn you that you cannot participate in the elections, that you, who urged people not to obey the toad on the pipe, is forbidden to participate in politics. I answer: thank you very much, but no. The campaign will not stop, because I am only part of this campaign, and quite insignificant. The people in whose interests I say now are more important. ”

“Let's essentially be the process,” the judge pulled out several times.

- This is essentially! - answered the defendant.

- The bottom line is that for people like me, the bench of the defendants becomes the only platform for public performances.

Then he turned to the judge and the bailiffs: - There are such good people, in general, people, like you, who understand everything. But I go out and say: "Guys, why are our hospitals so destroyed, although we are so rich?" And you to me: "No, please do not say all this." Guys, those three trillions from the sale of oil - they are yours, and they turned them into villas abroad. If there were no Putin with his cellists, then we would live 20% richer. How much is a judge's salary? And the bailiff? And the secretary of the court? You can’t live with this money, and I follow you and I'm talking about it! I understand how it is difficult for you to all, how I do not want to go out their comfort zones. But I will fight for your voices too. ”

The officers were more restrained, but also spoke about the circumstances of the case. He made a speech in defense of the business: “In my company, everything was transparent and clean. And four consequences did not find a single clue in the work of this company, ”he said about his“ Vyatka forest company ”. - This suggests that in our country a biased attitude towards business. I object to this. It is private business that will make the country strong, great. ”

On this side they parted: Judge Vthurin will pronounce the verdict on February 8 at 13:00.
