Judge of the Golovinsky Court Elena Astakhova, who is conducting a repeated process in the criminal case of Oleg Orlov on the discrediting of the army, today refused to consider Dmitry Muratov defender Orlov. The judge called Muratov “a self -proclaimed defender”, despite the fact that he was admitted to the defense of Orlov on June 8 by another judge of the Golovinsky court - Christina Kostryukova. The law does not imply that when revising the case, the status of a defender is canceled. However, Astakhova refused to consider and announce in the process the written statement of Dmitry Muratov, who was presented by lawyer Tertukhina, who is not present at today's meeting. We publish it without abbreviations.

Speech by Dmitry Muratov

“Judge and shoot” - such resolutions are found on hundreds of documents of the NKVD of Stalin's times.

On the one hand, "judge." And on the other, “shoot”. That is, to give a form of justice a predetermined sentence. And “judging” is only a tedious ritual, while the executioner rests after a night shift.

It is this Stalin, Encavedeshny, repressive logic of the investigation that we observe, including in this matter, the case of Oleg Petrovich Orlov.

For 8 months of my life, I have been involved as a defender in this trial.

In the Golovinsky court, the defense managed to prove the insignificance of the expert opinion of Tarasov and Kryukova, which is only the basis of the prosecution.

We found in linguistic examination 60 grammatical, spelling and punctuation errors.

The wild arguments were pulled into the light of God - experts studied in the text of Orlov, for example, heterographs - interspersed of ancient languages ​​in modern ones. But they are not in the text of Orlov. As there is no “whisper, whistle and facial expressions” when exposed to the reader. Experts refused to portray this to the court. They simply engaged in mass plagiarism and drove the volume to give their conclusions the indictment. According to the results of several trials, the examination of these authors are recognized as null and qualification - insufficient for linguistic examinations.

Why did you hire this office with experts who do not know the rules of the mere and separate writing of prepositions, investigator Savchenko, we can only guess.

And I, I think, guessed. He, too, "disguised" during the investigation. Both witnesses of accusations, who had never seen Orlov in the eyes, were in an incomprehensible way, without their personal statement, found by investigator Savchenko from 109 million adult Russians.

I agree: they, witnesses Bokhonko and Mironenko, are unique. The witnesses interrogated on different days and separately gave evidence that coincided by 100 percent, except for writing posts and surnames.

There are no such coincidences in living nature, but the investigator Savchenko has, who simply was doing a carbon copy.

The same investigator, who was not allowed to interrogate in court, in the indictment indicated that Oleg Petrovich Orlov is an alcoholic and drug addict, is registered with a narcologist.

This is a disgusting lies, there is no narcologist and accounting, just Orlov had to compromise, destroy his reputation.

But did the investigator Savchenko destroy his reputation? I will return to this issue.

In the petition of the prosecutor’s office about the direction of Orlov to a psychiatric examination as an argument, it was indicated that “Orlov has an heighten sense of justice” ... The desire for justice is now - wine.

At the first process, unique witnesses were interrogated at the invitation of the defense. Member of the Constitutional Commission, co-author of the Russian Constitution, Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador Vladimir Petrovich Lukin said that the 29th article of the Constitution is direct action. Each person, including Orlov, has the right to his beliefs. Censorship is prohibited. And no laws can abolish this right of a citizen.

We submitted documents, photographic materials and evidence that human rights activist Orlov always defended the basic right of a person - the right to life. And he sacrificed himself, remaining instead of hostages in the hands of terrorists, who seized the city of Budennovsk in June 1995. Orlov and his comrades, fulfilling the order of the Prime Minister, risked their lives, but 1,500 people saved, of which 111 women-women in labor of the Budynovsk hospital ...

And how can I forget that they want to plant a man, my client of orlov, who freed six Russian soldiers who were prepared for execution from Chechen captivity? How can I forget it if I saw it?

The court of first instance did not consider it possible to deprive Orlov of freedom, the court sentenced him only to a fine. But the investigation does not know how to lose. And we went to the appeal process already in the Moscow City Court, on which everything was almost exactly repeated.

The defense presented the conclusion of specialists, the analysis of all jambs in the case, and the Moscow City Court canceled the verdict in general.

But the painful fixation of the investigation and “organs”, which “are never mistaken,” at the desire to certainly “close” Orlov forced them to be charged again. With a new examination, with a new composition of the court, but (do not laugh) with the same investigator Savchenko!

The managers of middle-level repression allowed to eliminate all the obvious nonsense and again made it possible to put 70-year-old Orlov.

I can only treat with understandable contempt to those who change the rules for themselves for the sake of and certainly want not only to judge, but also to “judge and plant”. I have contempt with contempt for those who do not know how to lose, and calls the law to manipulate "this is just our work." This is the torment of people, not work.

I can easily imagine how they would judge Christ for unauthorized pickets, rallies, and sermons. And Matthew and Mark - for their reposts.

I can easily imagine how they are judged for discrediting the armed forces of the author of the commandment “not to kill”, and Virgin Mary - for “artificial fertilization”.

I do not want to participate further in the process that turns into a cruel and mocking farce.

Look.

Right during the first process, the “foreigner” is declared defender Orlov - me. And before the current one - and himself.

And that means, calling for a new process of witnesses, experts, specialists, historians, we expose them to inevitable danger: they will now be forced to protect the “foreign agent” (“enemy of the people”), and they will easily be endowed with the same status. Or they will become some "affiliated faces."

Thus, we were deprived of the right to full protection.

Why? For one purpose: to rot Orlov in prison.

I cannot afford to participate in this custom process. With the contractual rules, with those “accompanying the investigation” representatives of the special services, who again, as in the song of Shevchuk, “rolled up the sleeves of fussy nights”.

Orlov is prohibited from talking about the revanchism of the dark forces, which led to the terrible tragedy of Russia and Ukraine.

And the representative of the ruling party, General Gurulev, who called for destroying all 20 million citizens who disagree with his, received the full support of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which officially called him a semantic position “personal opinion”.

So know: the opinion of the need for peace is an inevitable prison sentence. And the call to mass repressions is a “personal opinion guaranteed by law”.

The authorities think that they have an unlimited tariff for sacrifices, repressions, prisons.

Well, no.

This is not my tariff. I am in a court cosplay, I will not participate in makeup.

Cruelty is not a synonym for patriotism.

Cruelty is a criminal act.

Defender D.A. Muratov,

Recognized by the Ministry of Justice of the Inoagent on September 1, 2023 in preparation for the debate in the case of Orlov.
