We publish excerpts from the article by Ivan Safronov to the Vedomosti, which was removed from the website of the publication, and then “turned off” and the whole site: “Only a year on espionage articles is condemned somewhere up to 10 people-while the investigation in each case goes on 17 months (the maximum case (the maximum The term, according to the Code of Criminal Procedure) From the moment of receipt of some of the first materials testifying to the “criminal” activity of a person, before the initiation of a criminal case can take place for a long time-a year, three, and even five. , then you can always delve into the past.

The conveyor works continuously, and it is not important who you are an official, housewife, saleswoman, journalist, scientist. Anyone who has contacted a foreigner at least somehow in some way. Anyone.

As practice shows, the initiation of one criminal case against an individual person is not an end in itself for the investigator. It is much more important for him to build the so -called criminal progression. Its meaning is that the accused not only pleads guilty, but will also testify to other people, so that the investigation gets the opportunity to initiate more and more new things. This is the essence of the pre -trial agreement: mitigation of punishment in exchange for indications.
If you are 30 years old, in the end, everything can be experienced and endured. But if the accused is already over 60 and a considerable period in the zone looms ahead, then the person breaks. He cannot be judged for this – everyone is free to make his choice. But I have repeatedly heard that in places of imprisonment of information about the “pre -trials” not only the administration of the correctional colony, but also convicts are interested. I, by the way, made my choice – no transactions.

People of the widest circle can come under suspicion. In the risk zone, first of all, those who cannot stand up for themselves, who are influenced, who can be “worked out” in silence. Thus, a circle of potential victims is formed. If you try to withdraw a portrait of the average accused, then the “traitor of the Motherland” will look as follows: a man or woman (no matter), age – 50+ (possible more), with higher education and having admission to information constituting a state secret (not necessarily, But preferably), contacting with foreigners (either at work or in private). Such a set allows you to simply bring any work to the provisions of Art. 275 of the Criminal Code.

You can work, say, scientists, to conclude a contract with foreigners in the interests of your institute is completely officially. But the investigation may consider the signing of such a contract by state treason and the transfer of secret information abroad. If you fight, you will get the same 7 years of the colony of possible 20. The same period can be obtained by other methods. Having concluded a deal with the investigation, call the accomplices of several colleagues and bring them to the article. The people you depend on are convinced: why should one answer for everything? As a bonus, if lucky, they will allow his wife to call the investigator’s office. ”
