In the Rostov region, Zakhar Peshkov is being tried, who did not want to follow the instructions of the regional prosecutor's authorities

The day before, Peshkov turned to Novaya Gazeta, telling about scandalous details from the life of the prosecutor's office of the Rostov region and the local FSB. Peshkov also claims that an employee of the Investigative Committee pulled astronomical sums from his family. In the testimonies, documents, audio recordings provided by Peshkov, the mechanism of the work of the Rostov law enforcement agencies is revealed step by step. Earlier, Major Aleksey Dymovsky did something similar in the police. Then in the judicial system - Sochi judge Dmitry Novikov. But Zakhar Peshkov was the first who dared to expose everyone at once. In fact, he has nowhere to go.

I. Peshkov and the Prosecutor's Office

odnokashniki

Zakhar Peshkov became the acting prosecutor of Novocherkassk in 2011, then he was 29. Then the case of a certain Vladimir Ustinnikov came to him. It was initiated under Article 159 (“Fraud”) and caused bewilderment in the young prosecutor. “They initiated a few months after the statements. And in fact, and not in relation to Ustinnikov, although his presence there was obvious, - says Peshkov. - Ustinnikov was put in a pre-trial detention center, and a few days later he was illegally released. And the value of the stolen property was underestimated several times.”

As a supervising prosecutor, Zakhar asked questions to representatives of the Internal Affairs Directorate investigating the case. But then he got a call - from the regional prosecutor's office, and everything fell into place. In his testimony and explanations, Peshkov suggests that "Ustinnikov is an acquaintance of the prosecutor of the Rostov region Kuznetsov, on whose initiative Ustinnikov was released from custody."

I don’t know how it really was, but as a child, Vladimir Ustinnikov and prosecutor Kuznetsov lived in the same house - on Dekabristov Street, 167 (now Aleksandrovskaya Street). Both studied at the Novocherkassk school number 2.

Peshkov could not even imagine who he swung at.

HE'S NOT GUILTY

The fate of Vladimir Ustinnikov is fascinating. IN Soviet years his father was the prosecutor of Novocherkassk, and Vladimir Igorevich himself worked for the KGB for 10 years. In the 90s, from the authorities and, as follows from the materials of the criminal case, he quit and was seen in the central market of Novocherkassk at the head of nice people who solved problems. Once Ustinnikov shot two people and disappeared, and after 6 years he joined the police and - lo and behold! - did not sit down. In the Rostov Regional Court, the jury acquitted him on all counts, except for one murder. But it was also qualified as exceeding the limits of self-defense, so the case was stopped due to prescription. The case of fraud, which Zakhar Peshkov tried to delve into, arose only later: Ustinnikov was accused of trying to gracefully steal a car and construction equipment from his partners.

According to Zakhar Peshkov, in November 2011 in Rostov he met the regional prosecutor Valery Kuznetsov, and he allegedly asked: “How long will you torment Ustinnikov?” This question, obviously, should have been taken as rhetorical, but the department was undergoing a Moscow check, and in order not to be extreme, Peshkov continued to “torment” the accused. But in court, of the three episodes of fraud in which Ustinnikov was accused, two were stopped due to limitation, for the third he received 2 years probation, and now Ustinnikov is a respected person, the ataman of the village of Srednyaya in Novocherkassk.

THE CASE OF YEVOCHKINA

The next case, because of which prosecutor Peshkov quarreled with the regional authorities, turned out to be insultingly banal. A resident of Novocherkassk, Lyudmila Evochkina, borrowed millions of dollars from friends and could not pay them back. A criminal case was opened under Part 4 of Article 159 (“Fraud in particular large size") and taken into custody. Then - a series of coincidences: her husband, Sergei Polzikov, turned out to be, again, a classmate of the regional prosecutor - the accused was released. All this was subsequently reported to the investigation by the son of Evochkina ( materials are in the editorial).

According to Peshkov, which, among other things, are recorded in his explanations, in the prosecutor's office of the region, his curator Pyotr Potapenko was repeatedly interested in changing the qualifications of Evochkina's actions. Potapenko himself, in a telephone conversation with Novaya Gazeta, denied interfering in the case. However, earlier in the course of an investigative interview, he showed that the prosecutor of the region, Valery Kuznetsov, was in favor of softening the position of Yevochkina (Potapenko, according to the procedural document, knew about this from his boss).

And when Zakhar Peshkov had already been arrested, the investigators of the Novocherkassk Internal Affairs Directorate in the indictment against Yevochkina really replaced part 4 of article 159 with a lighter one - part 3, now they explain this as a “technical error”. However, in March 2012, after the Moscow inspections of the Prosecutor General's Office, the regional prosecutor Kuznetsov was fired, and Lyudmila Evochkina received a real term. But she still has to go back to her case.

II. Peshkov and FSB

CASE OF TARASA PASTUKHOV

As I suppose, it was this case that cost Zakhar Peshkov his position and freedom, while all the others are just that soil well fertilized by scandals, on which the indictment eventually grew. And again - not the case, but some kind of nonsense. The young Rostov bodybuilding coach Taras Pastukhov went to Ukraine, bought anabolic steroids there (sports drugs banned in Russia), hid them in the car and drove back to the Rostov region, where he was detained by the State Drug Control Service. Another batch of banned substances was seized at home during a search.

A criminal case was opened under Part 3 of Art. 234 (“Illicit trafficking in potent substances on a large scale”) and Part 2 of Art. 188 (“Smuggling of substances”). Taras Pastukhov hired a lawyer and began to attend interrogations. But soon he turned to the FSB with a message: they say, the lawyer is extorting 600 thousand rubles - for the investigator. Pastukhov began to record conversations with the lawyer on a dictaphone and transfer them to the FSB, but the Chekists did not find anything bad on the records, and the lawyer was left alone.

And for some reason, the criminal case of Taras Pastukhov began to "jump" around the departments: from the drug control, the prosecutor's office sent materials to the regional police department, which sent the case to the department of internal affairs in the Aksai district, where Pastukhov lives, and from there - to the department of internal affairs in Novocherkassk, although it had nothing to do with Novocherkassk had no proceedings. “They usually do this when they want to quietly bury the case,” says Zakhar Peshkov.

EARS OF THE CHEKISTS

Zakhar Peshkov learned about Pastukhov's case from the same curator: “Pyotr Potapenko called from the regional prosecutor's office and began to ask about Pastukhov's case. I requested materials from the Internal Affairs Directorate and was surprised, because there was evidence of Pastukhov's guilt, but it was mostly defense witnesses that were interrogated.” According to Peshkov, the regional prosecutor's office allegedly explained to him: the FSB asked for Pastukhov.

Soon the investigator in charge of the Pastukhov case at the Novocherkassk Department of Internal Affairs was contacted by FSB detective Alexei Brodovikov. He does not deny this, showing on the survey: “I phoned her ( investigator. - E.T.) by phone, while asking her about the progress of the investigation of the criminal case. But, of course, “no influence on the investigator<…>did not provide."

And acting Prosecutor of Novocherkassk Zakhar Peshkov sent a demand to the Department of Internal Affairs to eliminate violations of the law and send the case to court. That is, he did not listen to anyone. And that's when the FSB operative Brodovikov came to the prosecutor's office. As the security officer says in the same poll: he only asked the prosecutor Peshkov to "carefully study this criminal case and objectively understand it." Only that…

Interestingly, in general, but what does the FSB have to do with it? The Chekists did not identify, did not investigate and did not accompany the case of Taras Pastukhov. We do not consider the version of corruption: all Chekists are very, very honest and never take bribes. But maybe they defended Pastukhov as their own? When it comes to the FSB, you yourself understand that these questions can only be answered when the Chekists themselves, for various reasons, find themselves in the dock...

Now the drug case has been suspended, and Pastukhov has gone abroad.

ARREST

According to Zakhar Peshkov, FSB operative Alexei Brodovikov allegedly asked him to accept Pastukhov's mother (Brodovikov denies this fact). In any case, Taras Pastukhov's mother visited the Novocherkassk prosecutor's office more than a dozen times. “I came, cried, offered 3 million to drop the case,” says Zakhar.

According to him, she tried to transfer the money on December 13, 2011. Peshkov did not take. Later it turned out: my mother recorded the conversations on audio and passed them on to the Chekists. In the case, the records are passed as "initiative" - ​​that is, made on the initiative of the petitioner, without instigation from the FSB.

However, the examination established: the recording was constantly carried out on a dictaphone issued by Federal Service security. But, excuse me, if special equipment is issued by Chekists, then for each “initiative” conversation they are obliged to issue a decision on conducting an operational-search activity. And since prosecutor Peshkov refused to take a bribe, the FSB had to stop these events.

But there are no traces of decisions in the case. And there are provocations of bribes. And since the bribe giver does everything as if on his own initiative, then you can try to “dissolve” the object many times. What, in fact, was in the story with the acting. Prosecutor of the city of Novocherkassk.

I am not a lawyer for Peshkov and will not defend him, if only because I have long been convinced that there are no angels in law enforcement agencies, but there are questions about his case.

As stated in the decision to initiate proceedings, Peshkov “repeatedly spoke out to Pastukhova S.N. demands to transfer to him funds in the amount of 1,800,000 rubles as a bribe.” For this, Taras Pastukhov was allegedly promised to "stop the criminal prosecution". At the same time, “1,300,000 Peshkov Z. E. demanded to transfer personally to him,<..>and 500,000 rubles - for further transfer as a bribe to officials of the prosecutor's office of the city of Novoshakhtinsk ”(where the trial against Pastukhov was expected).

On December 15, 2011, a bag of money ended up in Zakhar Peshkov's desk. He says that before that he left the office more than once and does not know when the money was planted. The washings from the hands were made only a few hours after the arrest: traces of the paint used to mark banknotes were found. “I didn’t take money. They were taken from the desk drawer and poured onto the table, and then at the same table they gave me documents to sign. That is, immediately after the arrest, the hands deliberately did not shine, ”explains Zakhar, suggesting that he smeared himself with the remains of the powder much later. This information is in the remarks of the lawyer who was present at the investigative action.

III. Peshkov and the Investigative Committee

WHO ASKED FOR MILLIONS

After the arrest of Zakhar, Yevgeny Khrapach, deputy head of the investigative department of the investigative committee for the Proletarsky district of Rostov, appeared in the Peshkovs' house. “For the termination of the case, he asked for a million dollars, outlined the prospects for our actions,” says Zakhar's mother, Svetlana Khoperskaya. “Then he asked for a million rubles for bail, which he then allegedly handed over to the employees of the investigative committee for his loyal attitude towards Peshkov.”

Svetlana Nikolaevna gave a million rubles to Khrapach in front of witnesses, but the court arrested Zakhar anyway. Khrapach did not return the money, but continued to visit his family. There is an audio recording of his conversation with Zakhar Peshkov's sister, Maria ( the ownership of the votes is established by the examination). They are talking about further transfer of money so that the article “Bribe” Zakhara is remade into the UK for a softer one, “Fraud”, and released from the pre-trial detention center.

Snorer:What we originally agreed on. If necessary, the price is only four.<…>

Maria: Who promises this?

Snorer: These are the first persons: Pliev(second name is illegible).<…>

Maria: The first person is the first deputy, you mean? Have you talked to him? Which Pliev, or what?

Snorer: Yes.

Soon, lawyer Lev Dadayan (former deputy prosecutor of the Oktyabrsky district of Rostov) appeared on the horizon. There is an audio recording where a person whose voice seemed to Peshkov's relatives to be similar to the voice of Dadayan calls the same last name, Plieva. We are talking about the release of Zakhar from the pre-trial detention center: “Pliev reassured me.<…>Vadim Viktorovich did not disappoint my expectations.<…>“You know,” he says, “you know, no matter what you decide financial issues, you know, I'm on your side.”

Vadim Viktorovich Pliev - Deputy Head of the Investigative Committee for the Rostov Region. The mention of his last name in conversations about a bribe does not prove anything: maybe they also wanted to substitute him. And it would be nice if the competent authorities sorted out these circumstances in detail - they would at least avert suspicions ...

SHOWING INDICATIONS

In addition to 4 million rubles, an employee of the insurance company Yevgeny Khrapach, according to his mother, acting. prosecutor, put forward another condition: Peshkov must give evidence that the investigator needs - then they will be released from the pre-trial detention center. And, as can be assumed, under this condition, another lawyer appeared - Andrey Arzumanyan. “No one invited him, he came with Khrapach and already knew our situation,” says Zakhar's mother, Svetlana Khoperskaya.

There is an audio recording: Khoperskaya talking with lawyer Arzumanyan ( the ownership of the votes is also confirmed by the examination), discussing the terms of Zakhar's release. They talk about the investigator of the UK, who is conducting the case.

Khoperskaya: She generally said<…>that it is being released. This is true? That he testifies and they let him out in a week.

Arzumanyan:Yes, that's what she told me. And she openly declares this: "Give evidence, and I will let you out."

It is strange, of course, for an employee of the prosecutor's office to fall for such a wiring, as for a minor boy who is "sewn" with a hooligan. But those who ended up in a pre-trial detention center have a different logic of actions. And in March 2012, Zakhar Peshkov, who had previously been silent, gave evidence. On the same day, investigator Natalya Tverdokhlebova issued an order for release.

THE REBATED

Judging by the audio recordings, the agreement was as follows: Zakhar would be released, Yevgeny Khrapach would be given 4 million, after which Peshkov’s article would be reclassified. But when Zakhar was released, they decided not to give the bribe. Moreover, Zakhar's mother took the head of the Russian Investigative Committee Alexander Bastrykin a statement against investigator Khrapach.

Zakhar, on the other hand, wrote to the head of the FSB of the Russian Federation a statement about a “criminal group”: he pointed out Evgeny Khrapach, Lev Dadayan, Andrey Arzumanyan and Vadim Pliev. Which, of course, in no way proves their guilt. The statement was “let down” in the Investigative Committee of the Rostov region, which, in fact, Zakhar complained about. The case under the article “Fraud” was initiated only against the investigator Yevgeny Khrapach: there are too many audio recordings and witnesses. Now he is in a pre-trial detention center and, in turn, refuses to testify - maybe Arzumanyan's lawyer is not enough for him?

Regarding Dadayan’s lawyer, on March 6, 2014, the investigator of the Investigative Committee of the Southern Federal District Spivakov finally compiled a report: “In the actions of Lev Sergeevich Dadayan<…>signs of a crime under Part 3 of Art. 30, part 4 of Art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - attempted fraud. There will be a test, the result of which I can not predict. The son of Lev Dadayan, Artur, is an investigator of the regional investigative committee.

NEW CASES

It is clear that after such a feint, no one began to re-qualify Zakhara's Article 290 (“Bribe”). The materials were handed over to the Investigative Committee for the Southern Federal District, after which Peshkov was charged with art. 294 (“Obstruction of the preliminary investigation”). Remember the cases of Ustinnikov and Evochkina, from which the misadventures of the acting began. prosecutor of Novocherkassk? Peshkov was accused of interfering in the work of police investigators in these cases. Although supervising the investigation is the work of the prosecutor. The episode about Ustinnikov was recaptured, but the one about Yevochkina was brought to trial. And now Peshkov faces a total of up to 15 years in prison.

And to be honest, I don't think the verdict will be acquittal. Judge for yourself: the requests of the FSB should usually be carried out, but Peshkov ignored them. The requests of the regional authorities must also be accepted for execution, and Peshkov pretended not to hear them. The local investigative committee, however, the prosecutor generally brought to a criminal offense, bringing rubbish from the hut on the carpet of the chairman of the Investigative Committee Bastrykin.

So now Peshkov is waiting for the verdict: he is not a “gambling” prosecutor of the Moscow region, who will stand up for him ...

The ex-prosecutor of Novocherkassk entered into a fight with the regional authorities, the Investigative Committee and the FSB, exposing the system of corruption and nepotism.

In the Rostov region, a verdict is expected in the case of Zakhar Peshkov, who in 2011 was the deputy, and then the acting prosecutor of Novocherkassk. The day before, Peshkov turned to Novaya Gazeta, telling about scandalous details from the life of the prosecutor's office of the Rostov region and the local FSB. Peshkov also claims that an employee of the Investigative Committee pulled astronomical sums from his family. In the testimonies, documents, audio recordings provided by Peshkov, the mechanism of the work of the Rostov law enforcement agencies is revealed step by step. Earlier, Major Aleksey Dymovsky did something similar in the police. Then in the judicial system - Sochi judge Dmitry Novikov. But Zakhar Peshkov was the first who dared to expose everyone at once.

Maria: Who promises this?

Khrapach: These are the first persons: Pliev (the second surname is illegible).<…>

Maria: The first persons are the first deputy, you mean? Have you talked to him? Which Pliev, or what?

Hrapach: Uh-huh.

Soon, lawyer Lev Dadayan (former deputy prosecutor of the Oktyabrsky district of Rostov) appeared on the horizon. There is an audio recording where a person whose voice seemed to Peshkov's relatives to be similar to the voice of Dadayan calls the same last name, Plieva. We are talking about the release of Zakhar from the pre-trial detention center: “Pliev reassured me.<…>Vadim Viktorovich did not disappoint my expectations.<…>“You know,” he says, “you know, no matter what you decide financial issues, you know, I'm on your side.”

Vadim Viktorovich Pliev - Deputy Head of the Investigative Committee for the Rostov Region. The mention of his last name in conversations about a bribe does not prove anything: maybe they also wanted to substitute him. And it would be nice if the competent authorities sorted out these circumstances in detail - they would at least avert suspicions ...

SHOWING INDICATIONS

In addition to 4 million rubles, an employee of the insurance company Yevgeny Khrapach, according to his mother, acting. prosecutor, put forward another condition: Peshkov must give evidence that the investigator needs - then they will be released from the pre-trial detention center. And, as you can imagine, another lawyer appeared under this condition - Andrey Arzumanyan. “No one invited him, he came with Khrapach and already knew our situation,” says Zakhar’s mother, Svetlana Khoperskaya.

There is an audio recording: Khoperskaya is talking with lawyer Arzumanyan (the belonging of the votes is also confirmed by the examination), discussing the conditions for the release of Zakhar. They talk about the investigator of the UK, who is conducting the case.

Khoperskaya: She generally said<…>that it is being released. This is true? That he testifies and they let him out in a week.

Arzumanyan: Yes, she told me that. And she openly declares this: "Give evidence, and I will let you out."

It is strange, of course, for an employee of the prosecutor's office to fall for such a wiring, as for a minor boy who is "sewn" with a hooligan. But those who ended up in a pre-trial detention center have a different logic of actions. And in March 2012, Zakhar Peshkov, who had previously been silent, gave evidence. On the same day, investigator Natalya Tverdokhlebova issued an order for release.

THE REBATED

Judging by the audio recordings, the agreement was as follows: Zakhar would be released, Yevgeny Khrapach would be given 4 million, after which Peshkov’s article would be reclassified. But when Zakhar was released, they decided not to give the bribe. Moreover, Zakhar's mother took the head of the Russian Investigative Committee Alexander Bastrykin a statement against investigator Khrapach.

Zakhar, on the other hand, wrote to the head of the FSB of the Russian Federation a statement about a “criminal group”: he pointed out Evgeny Khrapach, Lev Dadayan, Andrey Arzumanyan and Vadim Pliev. Which, of course, in no way proves their guilt. The statement was “let down” in the Investigative Committee of the Rostov region, which, in fact, Zakhar complained about. The case under the article “Fraud” was initiated only against the investigator Yevgeny Khrapach: there are too many audio recordings and witnesses. Now he is in a pre-trial detention center and, in turn, refuses to testify - maybe Arzumanyan's lawyer is not enough for him?

Regarding Dadayan’s lawyer, on March 6, 2014, the investigator of the Investigative Committee of the Southern Federal District Spivakov finally compiled a report: “In the actions of Lev Sergeevich Dadayan<…>signs of a crime under Part 3 of Art. 30, part 4 of Art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation - attempted fraud. There will be a test, the result of which I can not predict. The son of Lev Dadayan, Artur, is an investigator of the regional investigative committee.

NEW CASES

It is clear that after such a feint, no one began to re-qualify Zakhara's Article 290 (“Bribe”). The materials were handed over to the Investigative Committee for the Southern Federal District, after which Peshkov was charged with art. 294 (“Obstruction of the preliminary investigation”). Remember the cases of Ustinnikov and Evochkina, from which the misadventures of the acting began. prosecutor of Novocherkassk? Peshkov was accused of interfering in the work of police investigators in these cases. Although supervising the investigation is the work of the prosecutor. The episode about Ustinnikov was recaptured, but the one about Yevochkina was brought to trial. And now Peshkov faces a total of up to 15 years in prison.

And to be honest, I don't think the verdict will be acquittal. Judge for yourself: the requests of the FSB should usually be carried out, but Peshkov ignored them. The requests of the regional authorities must also be accepted for execution, and Peshkov pretended not to hear them. The local investigative committee, however, the prosecutor generally brought to a criminal offense, bringing rubbish from the hut on the carpet of the chairman of the Investigative Committee Bastrykin.

So now Peshkov is waiting for the verdict: he is not a “gambling” prosecutor of the Moscow region, who will stand up for him ...
