Three defendants in the Bolotnaya case, who were not on the square at all, were given a non-public amnesty
With a great delay, it became known that, in connection with the amnesty, the criminal prosecution of the three defendants in the Bolotnaya case, Alexander Kamensky, Oleg Arkhipenkov, and Richard Sobolev, was terminated. The very plot of this comic accusation can serve as a logical explanation for the silence of the Investigative Committee. It took the investigation a year and eight months to make sure that these people were not at all on May 6 at Bolotnaya.
