The court of St. Petersburg did not satisfy the complaint against the absenteeism of the search engine Anton Kolomitsyn, who is accused of receiving information constituting a state secret, the correspondent of the North Realia said.
According to investigators, Kolomitsyn received secret information when in May 2018 he bought topographic maps of the General Staff of the 70s. Anton Kolomitsyn does not admit his guilt, now he is in the Netherlands in anticipation of political asylum.
The defense in the appeal claimed that the investigators did not give evidence that Kolomitsyn had intent to buy secret materials and that he had acquired them illegally. The information that the cards in free sale contain GOSTINE were not published anywhere. Protection insists on the illegality of not only a chosen preventive measure, but also the initiation of a criminal case.
"Article 383.1 assumes that the method of acquisition should be illegal - blackmail, bribery, deception - but there was nothing like that. Anton is an ordinary civilian, when buying cards, he did not threaten anyone, did not blackmail anyone, so we consider the qualifications of his actions by the FSB," said the lawyer Ivan Pavlov.
Kolomitsyna’s wife Daria told North. Reali that the car, which is jointly owned with her husband, was arrested.
“I just wanted to sell it so that there was any living money-both to pay lawyers, and in general, as an help in a difficult situation. But the car was arrested on account possible a fine that could be appointed to Anton in addition to deprivation of liberty. Lawyers told me that we have no practices for the verdict, so our property is now arrested for life?” She said.
The decision to arrest the car is appealed.
The investigation interrogates Kolomitsyn’s colleagues, he fears that the investigation wants to re-qualify his case to group.
