Activist SERB Gosha Tarasevich fighting lawyer Ilya Novikov

Activist of the SERB movement Gosha Tarasich attacked lawyer Ilya Novikov near the house in Malaya Ordynka, where Boris Nemtsov lived, lawyer Sergei Badamshin told Mediazone.

Earlier, the RTVI correspondent reported that the fight began after Tarasevich tore off the leaflet with the image of Nemtsov from the wall and the words "Heroes do not die." The publication published a video in which the Serb activist says that he removed the poster because this motto belongs to the Ukrainian “right sector” prohibited in Russia.

Tarasevich accuses Novikov of attacked him with a bat and tried to "quickly leave for BMW ." According to the activist, the lawyer hit him in the back. Tarasevich claims that municipal deputy Sergei Markov also participated in the fight.

Novikov said that he did not attack Tarasevich with a bat, but simply picked her in his hands, wanting to show Tarasevich that he was able to “fight back”. Commenting on the situation, the lawyer said that he "had to restrain himself", but he lost his emotions when he saw that Tarasich "was doing Boris Nemtsov with the memory."

RTVI clarifies that now Tarasevich and Novikov are in the Office of Zamoskvorechye, where they write explanatory; Then they must go to the emergency room and fix beatings.

Two days before the incident, Tarasevich, along with other SERB activists, removed a memorial plate with the inscription “There lived a politician Boris Nemtsov, who died out the hands of the hired killer on February 27, 2015” from the house on the corner of Klimentsky and the Malaya Oryn. Tarasevich also wrote a statement to the police with a request to bring to justice persons who allegedly illegally established a memorial sign. Novikov wrote on his Facebook that he had to represent in court the interests of those who installed the board.
