Ask propagandon why Russia imposed only 0.2% acquittals — and he’ll tell you cheerfully that before the trial we heard only such cases where the fault of defendants is proved beyond doubt. The rest are closed at the preliminary investigation stage.
More interesting to trace the fate of those criminal cases in Russia end with acquittal sentences or closed without charge.
Show completely…
For example, the Presnensky court, where I October 3, convicted on the following day, acquitted former CEO”, COTenergo” Erast Matayev, who beat last summer a girl in Moscow on the Arbat. 2 weeks later Gagarinsky court of Moscow acquitted the son of the Vice-President of “LUKOIL” and its two companions, accused of threatening police after the race in Moscow on “Gelendvagen”.
And about the cases not reaching court, it is best to ask Valery puzikau, the son — in-law of Hero of Russia Anatoly Serdyukov. In fact, the son-in-law to the manor of which in Astrakhan region, defense Ministry at state expense paved asphalt road. The investigation identified damage to the budget from this project in 56 million rubles. The case was closed, the defendants were granted Amnesty, the money in the coffers, no one has returned.
In St. Petersburg the main military investigation Department of the TFR investigated other exploits of that legendary son-in-law. Being the head of the defense FSUE St. Petersburg, Valery Puzikov nice profit at the expense of the budgets of the enterprise.
First, he designed three of his relatives for the posts of Manager, administrative assistant, and nurses in the same Federal state unitary enterprise. To go to work are not required, but it charged a salary, bonuses, reimbursable travel expenses. In total, the investigators counted 4 million of these payments. It’s not about Evgenia Vasilyeva, which really worked in the structure of the Ministry of defense, and about people who never cross the threshold of this Department.
More than double for the fictitious employees, Puzikov earned on the fake contracts for rental cars. He gave his FSUE car brands Toyota Land Cruiser 78, Mercedes-Benz GL 320 4 Matic, Porsche Cayenne Turbo, Hummer and BMW 760LI owned by the firm his wife Galina (daughter of the Hero of Russia Serdyukov). No indication that the FSUE these cars use, the investigation found. But the payment structures puzikova under the fictitious contract of lease amounted to 8 million rubles.
The case of “dead souls” and fake luxury cars at the expense of the Ministry of defense investigated as much time on it has expired a limitation period. Then the TFR, and the Main military Prosecutor’s office agreed to stop the investigation, and the court case not to transfer. As in the case of estate, civil suits for damages followed.
So look of the case, which reached the court in relation to thieving government officials. And how they look against the merchants — better than me told Vladimir Putin in his last address to the Federal Assembly, summarizing the available statistics on economic crimes:
During 2014, the investigative authorities opened nearly 200 thousand criminal cases on the so-called economic crimes. Before the court reached 46 thousand of the 200 thousand. Another 15 thousand cases fell apart in court. So, if you count that ended with a conviction only 15% of cases. The vast majority, about eighty per cent, 83 per cent of the entrepreneurs which were criminal cases, is completely or partially lost business. That is, they oppressively, robbed and released.
I think anyone can figure out how the Russian justice system, these figures should be enough to give you a General understanding.
