Through the investigation - to the stars

The scheme worked on the "postal case" of the Navalny brothers is now used against top managers of the Russiansal industry

The Grandmother's District Court of Moscow satisfied the application of the investigation and sent to the pre-trial detention center the general director of JSC Scientific and Production Association named after S.A. Lavochkina »Sergey Lemeshevsky. So far for two months. The head of one of the flagships of the space industry of Russia, the manufacturer of the Frigat Hract blocks and Russian interplanetary stations, is charged with the theft of 330 million rubles. According to investigators, this money for two years was transferred to the billing account of the Tretyakov and Partners lawyer on twenty -three agreements on the provision of legal services, which, allegedly, were actually provided by full -time employees of the legal department of NGOs.

And no one was embarrassed that there were a dozen judicial acts adopted by the results of the processes in which the interests of NGOs to them. Lavochkin was represented by the lawyers of the Tretyakov and Partners lawyer.

During the court hearing to choose a preventive measure, Lemeshevsky explained that until 2016 the interests of NGOs. Lavochkina in arbitration courts was represented by lawyers of the enterprise. And, as a rule, litigation lost. Therefore, in 2016, the first agreement was concluded with the law office. The document provided for the payment of premium (“success fees”) in the amount of 8% of the amount in case of victory in court or reducing the amount of monetary claims to NGOs. For two years of cooperation, 8% of premium amounted to about 330 million rubles.

An interesting detail. The TFR announced that one of the suspects in the commission of a crime - the head of the law office Igor Tretyakov - was put on the federal wanted list, as he managed to hide from the investigation.

The lawyer himself with a 25-year work experience informed TASS agency that he was not hiding from the investigation, was on planned vacation in Lake Baikal, and before departure to Irkutsk met with the investigator, in whose proceedings there is a criminal case.

“I am surprised that I am wanted,” Tretyakov said, emphasizing that he intends to return to Moscow on Monday.

In court, Lemeshevsky stated that he did not plead guilty, and asked the court to choose a preventive measure not related to imprisonment. “I don’t have a passport in my hands, since I have the first form tolerance ( to secret documents. - Ed. ). The passport is stored in Roscosmos. I do not see the grounds to hide, since my name and reputation are deformed, ”the suspect to the court turned. But the court sent him to a pre -trial detention center.

It can be assumed that, as often happens, the investigation does not have serious evidence, and it expects that the accused, being in a prison chamber, will become more accommodating. And, perhaps, he will even agree to write a confession, making himself and other defendants in a criminal case.

The content in jail has long turned into an independent way of extracting evidence in ambiguous criminal cases.

The law enforcement officers have already worked out in another criminal case associated with the same NGOs to them. Lavochkina: The deputy director of the enterprise, the chief designer and head of the personnel department became his defendants. Now this case has been transferred to the Khimkinsky city court.

Let me remind you, according to investigators, a group of attackers abducted 185 million rubles, ordering and paying 46 contracts for research work in the MAI LASTAR NIC. The investigation was not embarrassed that almost all “criminal” contracts are contracts for the implementation of research ordered and paid by foreign aerospace firms of France (Starsem, Arianespace), Italy (Thales Alnia Space), Germany (Kayser-Threde), Canada (GOM DEV LTD), China (Chinese industrial corporation "The Great Wall"), Finland (Finnish Meteorological Institute) ... And all the obligations stipulated by the contracts were fulfilled, and the customers did not have any complaints about the performers. Despite this, the investigation insists: all contracts are fictitious. And the key evidence was precisely the “confession”, received by the investigation, when the defendants were already in jail.

The investigation lasted more than four years. Two suspects - Shishikin and Anisimov - spent more than three years in prison cells. By the way, Vladimir Anisimov is a doctor of technical sciences, professor, laureate of the State Prize. Deputy General Director of the NGO named after Lavochkina Valery Romanov shortly after the release from the pre -trial detention center, under the recognizance not to leave, died. Chief Designer NGO named after Lavochkina, a brilliant young scientist Maxim Martynov, was fired.

Another thing in the framework of the “Space Conveyor” was initiated against the General Director (already former) of the Federal State Unitary Enterprise “State Space Scientific and Production Center (GKNPC) named after M.V. Khrunichev ”by Vladimir Nesterov, who was charged with the same thing that the general director of NGOs is accused today. Lavochkina Sergey Lemeshevsky. Nesterov and other defendants were accused of kidnapped 368.7 million rubles. By concluding contracts for the provision of legal services with Eco -Rails CJSC. In this case, it was also about "success fees." At the same time, the investigation preferred not to notice that these same lawyers won in arbitration processes and returned to the Khrunichev center more than 5.4 billion rubles.

One of the accused, former deputy general director of the Center named after Khrunicheva in economics Alexander Ostro -top, pleaded guilty and made a deal with the investigation. His case was considered in a special way, that is, without studying evidence. The Ostrovekh was sentenced to 5 years in prison.

It was the testimonies of the Ostrovoch that became the key evidence of the prosecution. True, he could not explain what specifically on the billing account of Eco -Raise CJSC Center named after Khrunicheva transferred more than 300 million rubles. He completely refused to answer clarifying protection issues to the point of protection. Despite the absence of the crime itself, the prosecution requested for the key person involved in the criminal case, the former general director of the Center named after Khrunichev, nine years in prison. But the incredible happened. The judge of the Dorogomilovsky District Court of Moscow Alexander Tolstoy returned the case to the Russian Prosecutor General for an additional investigation. Moreover, this happened when, after eight months of the judicial investigation, the court retired to the deliberation room.

I happened to be in the Dorogomilovsky court at the hearing, at which federal judge Alexander Tolstoy left the deliberation room and instead of the sentence announced the decision to return the case "to eliminate the obstacles to its consideration by the court." This happened almost a year ago, on August 14, 2017. The Prosecutor General’s Office appealed this decision in the Moscow City Court, but on September 19, 2017, the decision of the court of first instance was upheld. This is a decision on a “legal case” in relation to the former general director of the Center named after Khrunichev Vladimir Nesterov became precedent.

And on March 29, this year, the same Dorogomilovsky District Court of Moscow decided in a criminal case, the key person involved in which was Alexander Seliverstov, who also headed the center named after Khrunicheva (after the dismissal of Nesterov). Seliverstov and others were accused of kidnapping 108 million rubles, concluding supplies from Metallresurs LLC. According to investigators, the Khrunichev center could save 108 million if I bought products directly from manufacturers. But at the same time, the investigation was ignored by the fact that manufacturers refused to ship products without prepayment, and Metallresurs was ready to wait for payment for many months. One of the former managers of Metallresurs Company LLC told Novy that contracts with the center named after Khrunichev was unprofitable for the company and were rather for advertising purposes.

“Thanks to these contracts, we have a reputation as a metal supplier for Roscosmos, and this contributed to the conclusion of other contracts,” our interlocutor said and added. - When they say that the manufacturers were cheaper, they do not take into account that the factory price list indicates the price of a factory warehouse - without export, without logistics, without collecting various grades of metals from various manufacturers. We set the price already with delivery to the Khrunichev center.

The investigation ignored all these arguments. But he took into account Dorogomilovsky District Court. And the federal judge Galina Talanina issued a decision on the return of the criminal case against Seliverstov and other accused to the investigation. As in the case of the "case of Nesterov", "to eliminate the obstacles to his consideration by the court."

And here's what else. All these four criminal cases against key enterprises of the space industry are surprisingly similar to the “postal case” of Alexei and Oleg Navalny.

Back in 2012, when it only began to spin, we warned more than once: a dangerous precedent is created. It was said that, invading the economic activities of enterprises according to the “scheme of the Brothers Navalny”, law enforcement officers will be able to declare absolutely any contract contracts with criminal - regardless of whether the contractor was fulfilled by the obligations or not ... So it happened: having worked on the Navalny brothers, the security forces took up space. It remains only to understand in whose interests. The "new" will try to answer this question in the near future.
