Pskov: The court attributed to Prokopyeva partial guilty admission

In the resolving part of the court decision in the case of Pskov journalism, Svetlana Prokopyeva, which was found guilty of justifying terrorism due to the article, is said about the partial confession of Prokopyeva guilt. Prokopyeva during the trial said that she did not consider himself guilty of justifying terrorism. The lawyer of Agora Vitaly Cherkasov, who represented Prokopyev in court, told about this to the correspondent of the Sever. Reali.

"Very often, typos are due to the fact that the judges, due to inattention, take a similar, previously pronounced sentence and just change the text there. I do not exclude that the beginning of the sentence in this part could be borrowed from another decision, but this is only assumptions," Cherkasov said.

According to the lawyer, the defense of Prokopyeva will indicate in the appeal that the decision presents information that the journalist did not speak.
