Evgenia Roizman was brought to the Upper Island Court of Yekaterinburg today about noon. They brought it out of the car and through the back door quickly brought into the building. Before the meeting, it remained for more than four hours, and the street of the patrol service was already on duty on the street and, just in case, the employees of the Russian Guard.
At three o'clock numerous journalists and sympathetic citizens reached out.
“As if I'm going to a rock star for a concert,” said one of the visitors. - The line for inspection is wild!
- What did you want? Roizman is our star, ”the girl answered next to her in line.
- Where are they all? I have already counted 105 people in the corridor - this bailiff is already puzzled. It consults with colleagues.
The corridor is incredibly hot and stuffy.
- The people, maybe we’ll throw ourselves a hundred rubles and give the air conditioner to the court? - The offer in the noise of the crowd is drowning.
- What is it? You can vote on the hemp, why can not be a court on the lawn? Or at the pool? - fleshes a thin brochure, like a fan, a sweaty face is one of the elderly ladies. Everyone likes the idea, but the bailiffs are with stone faces. Stone sweaty faces.
Everything changes when closer to the beginning of the meeting, the door to the detainees room opens and Evgeny Roizman is brought to the corridor for several seconds - handcuffs on his hands.
- Thank you for coming! -the ex-mayor manages to shout into the crowd, and the door of the meeting hall immediately closes. A couple of seconds, and the mood of those who came immediately changed. The crowd together chants: “Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! ”
Before the trial of the court, Roizman, pacing from the corner to the corner of the cage, said that the pre -trial detention center has improved since Soviet times. “It became much cleaner - heaven and earth, many household little things that were inconceivable in Soviet times. Forty years ago, there was no soul, it would have occurred to anyone to give out dryers when a person goes to the stage. Employees behave politely, not only with me, but in principle. ”
Visitors are not allowed into the courtroom, and only a few were allowed reporters. The tiny room is packed to capacity. The bailiffs dragged an additional two benches, but this improved the situation not very noticeable. On the second floor, a TV for a direct broadcast is installed. Everyone wants to see Roizman, but the camera in the hall is located in such a way that only the judge is visible.

They ask the hall to let a woman who came to the court in a wheelchair. Natalia Turkeeva SMA, legs do not move. The bailiff replies that there are no places in the hall, but it can climb the second floor. There is no elevator in the Upper Isetsky court to the second floor, and in general the opportunity to go upstairs in a wheelchair is not provided. Therefore, Natalia remains to be sad on the ground floor.
“I am a disabled person since childhood, my husband was also very ill - a chronic lung disease, he should constantly be on a special apparatus,” Natalya Turkeeva tells “free space”. - We bought one at our own expense. It overheats, it is necessary to include the second, that is, use in turn. How do we buy the second? We paid for the first loan - there is one such apparatus of 25 thousand rubles. I wrote to the Ministry of Health, but we were refused. I went from despair to an appointment with Roizman, he listened to me and immediately found money: they bought a new apparatus and paid off a loan for the old one. I suffered so much, went to different structures, I just did not believe that they could help somewhere. When the husband died, Yevgeny Vadimovich was then the mayor. I came to him, asked for help, and he organized everything for free. When I tell someone that the mayor of Yekaterinburg helped me with the funeral, relatives in other cities do not believe that this is possible.

And at this time, in the courtroom of the court hearings, federal judge Oksana Mamontova listens to the arguments of the parties. The accusation asks Evgeny Roizman to communicate in communication and freedom of movement and forbid him to leave the house from 00.00 to 23.59. According to the lawyer, this minute was left on purpose, otherwise such a measure of restraint can be called house arrest, and not a restriction of certain actions (this has already been - in this way they mocked the journalists of the DOXA student magazine).
“Even in jail, I would have more opportunities,” says Roizman. - I'm against it. The investigator is not from here ( from Moscow . - Approx. Aut .). The Roizman Foundation is one of the most powerful funds in the country. Appeals come from everywhere. I am one of the strong volunteers, I constantly have tricks. Secondly, I write work with scientists. Thirdly, I do not live alone. I do not want the restrictions imposed on me to concern other people.
The reason for initiating a criminal case under the article was the air on the YouTube channel, in which Evgeny Roizman answered the questions of subscribers. At the same time, it is not clear what kind of broadcast it is about. In addition, in the case there are testimonies of some “hidden” witnesses who declared that they had heard some information that “contradict the official position of the Ministry of Defense on the special operation.”
The lawyer invites you to introduce characteristics, including the characteristic from the Nobel laureate Dmitry Muratov, Yuri Shevchuk, Boris Grebenshchikov, Andrei Makarevich, Boris Akunin, letters of thanks. The defender says that in September, Roizman will turn 60 years old.
- I ask you to take into account the age of Yevgeny Vadimovich, as well as his marital status. He will need to take and bring children to school, to other events. Such a measure will violate the rights of his family members, ”said lawyer Vladislav Idamzhapov.
“I ask you not to take into account the age,” Roizman remarked from the cage.
The judge retired to the deliberation room for an hour and a half. Journalists and visitors remained in the corridor, there were not enough benches for everyone, most just sat on the floor and on the steps. We communicate.
“I had a second group of disability, and then it was removed, as if I were suddenly recovered,” Natalya Stepanova, Yekaterinburg, who came to support Roizman. - But I have a fracture of the spine, there is no joint in the leg. Evgeny Vadimovich insisted that I be finished, and they gave me the third disability group. Now I get a pension, and I at least have what to live on. If it is put, no one can help like us.
“I saw in the news that Roizman was detained,” said Elena. - I was just covered by rage. We all live under a terrible press. What we see today is repression. I think that everything has long been decided. They want to transfer him to Moscow, he will be waiting for the fate of Navalny, Yashin (recognized by the authorities of the Russian Federation “in the agent.” - approx. Ed. ) And others.

Lawyer Vladislav Idamzhapov said that during a search in the apartment of Roizman, a technique was seized. In violation of the law, technology was also withdrawn from family members. And in general, the story with the actions of the investigator from another region is strange.
Leila Huseynova, an assistant to Roizman, who stands here in the stuffy corridor, says that even the arrest of Yevgeny Vadimovich will not change anything. They discussed this scenario. The fund will continue to work, and there will also be runs on Saturdays.
Judge Oksana Mamontova returned to the meeting room 17 minutes later than the appointed time. She satisfied the requirement of the prosecutor's office partially, recognizing some restrictions excessive for the severity of a sane crime. As a result
Evgeny Roizman now cannot be used by means of communication, the Internet, mail, communicate with witnesses in the criminal case and attend public events. The judge decided to release the accused in the courtroom.
Immediately after the court, Evgeny Roizman was taken through a black exit and took him to the police department in order to draw up the necessary documents there for release from custody.
“I have no particular impressions, I initially understood what could be and what could not, prepared for the stage, tuned in,” said the tired ex-mayor of Yekaterinburg, then leaving the police department. - I am ready for everything, I evaluate all the risks. The standard situation is today in our country. As far as I understood, they [the investigation] were annoyed [the decision of the judge]. I still have freedom of movement, freedom of communication. We have several questions that no one can answer so far: what is a mass event, and what is public? The investigator could not explain, no one understands the same here [in the police]. They put on my bracelet, but he will not limit me in movement, just for tracking. In general, everything is fine.
Evgeny Roizman was in a hurry home. We must get enough sleep, because tomorrow all day to conduct a traditional reception of citizens.
