Lawyer Ivan Pavlov called the customer of the case against him the FSB investigator
The lawyer and head of the team "Team 29" Ivan Pavlov, who is accused of disclosing the data of the preliminary investigation, believes that the customer of the criminal case against him may be the FSB investigator Alexander Chaban. Pavlov said this in an interview with the Rain TV channel.
“I have a clear idea that this is an investigator, a specific investigator in a specific case, in the case of Ivan Safronov, initiated this,” said Pavlov.
He explained that he published documents on other cases in which he acted as a defender and who were conducted in the Investigative Department of the FSB, but the department had no complaints. Pavlov said that, for example, in the case of the former top manager of Inter RAO Karina Tsurkan, team 29 published all procedural documents.
The lawyer claims that the FSB officer Chaban persuaded the citizens of the project and their relatives to refuse the services of lawyers. The investigator allegedly said the phrase "I will put this Pavlov."
According to Ivan Pavlov, the initiation of a criminal case could be affected by the fact that he represents the interests of the Corruption Fund (recognized as a foreign agent).
- A case was opened against Ivan Pavlov under Article 310 of the Criminal Code - the disclosure of the preliminary investigation. The court forbade him to communicate with witnesses, use a mobile phone and Internet during the investigation.
- The lawyer’s colleagues consider this a pressure on Ivan Pavlov due to the fact that the “team 29” represents the interests of the Corruption Fund and the Fund for the Protection of the Rights of Citizens of Alexei Navalny (also recognized as an ino-agent) in the case of recognizing the FBK with an extremist organization in court.
- Open letters in support of the lawyer Ivan Pavlov were published by his colleagues, as well as writers, poets and journalists and deputies . Colleagues of Ivan Pavlov filed more than 40 complaints about the measure of restraint for the head of the "team 29".
