“The accusation presented by Biryukov, Krakow and Bryantsev does not meet the requirements of Art. Art. 7, 73 and 171 of the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation, and the conclusions of the investigation about the guilt of these persons contradict the actually established circumstances and are based solely on assumptions. Objective evidence of the selfish and other personal interest of Biryukov, Krakow and Bryantsev in making procedural decisions in the criminal case against Khudoyan was not received …
There is no evidence in the criminal case confirming the guilt of Biryukov, Krakow and Bryantsev in the commission of an incriminated crime. It was also found that for effective work, an investigation group was created as part of 22 investigators. However, the investigation of this criminal case, which does not differ in actual and legal complexity, has become clearly prolonged.
Within 3 months (May, August and October 2020), investigative and procedural actions were carried out no more than 3 days. As a result, the investigation was over one year, despite the fact that the subject of the investigation was an act committed within the same subject of the Russian Federation. The circle of suspected persons was determined at the stage of initiating a criminal case, conducting a large volume of investigative actions and complex expert research was not required.
The materials of the criminal case amount to 81 volumes, 46 of which formed copies of documents from the criminal case against Khudoyan and the annex to the protocols of inspections that do not have evidence -based significance. The violations admitted impede the approval of the indictment and the sending of a criminal case to the court for consideration on the merits. ”
