After the prosecution was announced, the court moved to the interrogation of witnesses. In particular, journalist David Frenkel notes on his Twitter, Major of the FSB Sergey Krut, who was developing Osipov before initiating a cadet of the case. "Do you understand that Osipov’s plans were unrealistic?" - Truly, the judge of teeth asked . “We still have to work out,” answered the operative. “There would be a panic, he had a chance.”
Fontanka.ru reports that Krut also declared Osipov: "For him, human life has no value."
Later, the lawyer of Politsek Vitaly Cherkasov specified on his FB page that the second special services operative, who participated in the development of Osipov, was questioned. Both security forces, in response to the questions of the lawyer, noted that "serious operational-search measures were carried out in order to expose Osipov in the fact that he had shown or made funds or tools of making explosions and arson, but neither bombs, nor components for their manufacture were found from the cadet.

Andriyevsky said that the defendant "did not include directly", but could not clearly explain how, then, Osipov incited him.
Avanesyan said that once Osipov invited him to capture the barracks. Cherkasov asked: "He shared the capture plan, distributed roles, called a specific date, time?" The witness negatively answered this question.
“I note that Avanesyan’s cadet“ oversee ”one of the previously questioned employees throughout the preliminary investigation,” the lawyer added. “The FSB'Shnik interrogated three times on his own initiative of the cadet, and not by a separate assignment of the investigator.

As Cherkasov Interfax noted, his client - "an impressive young man with a rich imagination." Osipov developed the capture of the barracks, not intending to fulfill it. According to the defender, Osipov’s conversations about terrorist attacks and his classmates "perceived as black humor and did not attach any words to his words." "It turns out that if you adhere to the version of the investigation that Osipov recruited his fellow students to participate in some crimes, he could not subordinate them to his will," Cherkasov said.
“After the St. Petersburg attack, the FSB clearly received a carte blanche for any criminal cases of terrorism, especially in St. Petersburg. Hence the work of the cadet Osipov,” Cherkasov said the day before. “The FSB investigator bowed Osipov to confessions, to refuse the defender, and took away the non -disagreement from him, tried to initiate against the lawyer Criminal case. "
On December 25, at preliminary hearings, Osipov’s arrest was extended until June 12 , that is, to six months from the moment the case was received in court.
Osipov is 19 years old, he is an orphan from Orenburg. He studied at the Academy in the 1st year of the faculty of topogenodesical support and cartography. Part 1 of Article 205.1 of the Criminal Code (assistance to terrorism; from 5 to 10 years of the colony) and part 1 of Article 30 - paragraph "b" of part 3 of article 205 of the Code (preparation for a terrorist attack that could entail intentional infliction of death; also up to 10 years) were charged with.
Osipov himself does not plead guilty.
The case was opened on April 8, 2017. On the night of April 9, Osipov was detained, and on the 10th he was arrested. According to the accusation, under the influence of the book "Russian cuisine. ABC of home terrorism", included in the list of extremist materials, the cadet "began to steadily adhere to extremist positions and ideology of violence." According to the plot of the case, Osipov has turned into a supporter of the methods of “impact on decision -making by state authorities” related to the “intimidation of military personnel and the population using explosions and arson”, as well as “violence against the perpetual outfit and the seizure of weapons of the unit”. Specifically, the cadet was imputed preparations for the capture of the Academy’s arms room.
On April 4, during the lesson, the teacher discovered a sheet of paper with a hand -drawn bar with a bar of the barracks and notes on how to capture it to a group of landlated persons in order to gain access to the arms room. Subsequently, in the investigation, the cadet said that he made a plan under the impression of classes conducted with cadets called "anti -terror". He also admitted that he was interested in the recent reports of terrorist attacks, in particular about the attack of the underground on the base of the Russian Guard in Chechnya.
The teacher handed over the drawing of the FSB operative to the Academy; He twice - 4th and 8th - called a cadet for a "conversation". During the "conversation" the operative was interested in how Osipov acted as a terrorist. A cadet, fond of the history of sabotage groups of the time of the German-Soviet war, answered questions in detail. In particular, he said that he would blow up a kettle in the hands of an foreman or mined the general path coming from the parade ground to the headquarters. Osipov later stated that at the end of the Academy he himself intended to get into the special service. “I believed that they simply recruit me to work in the FSB, so I wanted to look in the form,” he explained his answers to the questions of the operative.
During one of the "conversations" it turned out that the cadet of the cadet is stored in the cadet’s smartphone. “I downloaded it for the same reason - I am fond of the story of saboteurs,” he said in the investigation.
The investigation was led by the deputy head of the department for the Krasnoznamensky garrison of the Directorate of the Investigative Committee for Strategic Missile Forces Alexei Surovtsev.
