Let us remind you that Gafurov was born on December 21, 2021. charged 23 years ago with inciting the preparation and instigation of the murder of crime boss Elabuga Israfilov. Previously, in 2006 and 2017, verdicts were passed in this case by the Supreme Court of the Republic of Tajikistan, which were reviewed on appeal by the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation.
During the investigation of criminal case No. 93884 on the fact that the leaders and participants of the criminal community “29 complex” committed grave and especially grave crimes, including the murder of their competitor Israfilov from Yelabuga, beginning. track. Department of the Naberezhnye Chelny Prosecutor’s Office Azat Ziyatdinov, back in 2002, issued a resolution to refuse to initiate a criminal case against Gafurov “due to the lack of corpus delicti in his actions.”
Without canceling the resolution, the leadership of the Main Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee still issued a resolution to criminally prosecute the then rector of the university in December last year.
Thus, in the opinion of the defense, the initiation of a criminal case against Gafurov dated December 21, 2021 is illegal due to the presence of a decision that was not canceled at that time to refuse to initiate a criminal case against him, and therefore the election against Gafurov I.R. preventive measures in the form of detention and its further extension are illegal in accordance with paragraph 5 of Part 1 of Art. 27 Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation.
Moreover, he was charged with the same acts to which he had already admitted not being involved.
The investigation also tried to classify Gafurova as one of the unidentified persons whose criminal prosecution was separated from the OPS case. The defense believes that this is also legally impossible, since the identity of the defendant was established by the prosecutor, who recorded his non-involvement in the crime. Finally, the investigation doubted the authenticity of Mr. Ziyatdinov’s signature, ordering a handwriting examination, but the defense did its own research, which showed that numerous signatures of the prosecutor in the criminal case are identical.
Thus, from a legal point of view, the previously issued court verdicts are called into question.
Despite the convincing arguments of the defense, Gafurov was left in custody, although the scientist’s lawyers presented evidence of the illegality of his criminal prosecution. Lawyer A. Naryshkin, appealing to the Moscow City Court, relied on the resolution of the plenums of the Supreme Court in 2013, 2016 and 2020, which, when selecting and extending preventive measures for defendants, oblige the courts to verify the validity of their involvement in the incriminated crimes.
The Moscow City Court, unlike Basmanny, added these and other defense documents to the court case, but did not give them any further action, leaving Mr. Gafurov in custody until December.
