Judge of the Soviet District Court of Bryansk Andrei Schalnev extended to the opposition Denis Baholdin, who is charged with participation in the ATO as a volunteer of the “Right Sector”, the term of detention in the pre -trial detention center until September 15. This was reported to the "Franes" by the lawyer of the political prisoner Svetlana Sidorkina.

The petition of the head of the 1st department for the investigation of especially important cases of the regional department of the Investigative Committee of the Investigative Committee of Alexander Shpakov in court was represented by investigator Konysh, an official D. Lugova was present at the prosecutor's office at the hearing.

The previous time Bakholdin's arrest was extended until August 29 . Then the official stated that the investigation of the case has already been completed and the materials are ready to send to the prosecutor to approve the indictment. Sidorkina suggested that with a new petition to extend her customer of arrest, an already supervisory department would be released.

However, while the prosecutor’s office has not gone. The lawyer still did not have the opportunity to get acquainted with all the materials. Therefore, the current application again stated the TFR.

On August 17, the judge of the Bryansk Regional Court Victoria Zlotnikova rejected the appeal against the previous extension of the arrest to Baholdin. Meanwhile, Sidorkina’s lawyer at the hearing indicated that, since the episodes imputed by Baholdin date back to 2014-2015, the Criminal Code of Article 282.2 (participation in the activities of an extremist organization) should be applied to it in the editorial office operating for the period. Prior to the entry into force of the "Laws of Yarovo", the maximum term on such a prosecution was four years of colony - therefore, this composition belonged to the category of moderate crimes. Meanwhile, Article 109 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (terms of detention) establishes that persons accused of medium severity can be kept in the pre -trial detention center for no more than six months; In certain cases, an extension of this period is allowed for a maximum of a month. Bakholdin remains in prison for almost a year and a half.

Nevertheless, the investigator Konysh and the prosecutor N. Zablotskaya insisted on the legality of extension of the Politzeck arrest. Judge Zlotnikova took their side.

The bailiffs detained Dadin and issued a protocol for it under part 2 of article 17.3 of the Code of Administrative Offenses (non -fulfillment of the legal order of the bailiff; a fine of 500 to 1000 rubles), after which they were released.

Sidorkina filed a complaint about the illegal retention of her client in a pre -trial detention center in the TFR and the prosecutor's office.

In March 2017, the opposition was detained in the border village in the Bryansk region, when he illegally entered Russia to visit his parents. According to the plot of the case, fabricated against Bakholdin, from July 4 to 12, 2015, the emigrant fought in the ATO zone in the Donbass as part of the 5th separate battalion of the Right Sector Volunteer Corps. It is known that just on July 12 this unit left the zone of military operations.

This, in particular, is his photo in camouflage against the backdrop of a Ukrainian flag with an object resembling a Kalashnikov assault rifle, as well as a certain "guide on action in the field of a sniper."
