Petition to Stop the Untouchables and Bring Justice for Magnitsky

Add your voice to the campaign. Sign petition below:

Dear President Medvedev,

We are deeply shocked by the arrest, torture and murder in custody of Sergei Magnitsky, a 37 year-old father of two, who testified about the corruption of senior officials in the Interior Ministry, including Lieutenant Colonel Artem Kuznetsov and Major Pavel Karpov. He had discovered these men, their bosses and accomplices embezzling $230 million from the Russian state through approvals of fraudulent tax refunds.

We understand that no charges have been brought against these officials. Indeed, we understand these men have been promoted within the Interior Ministry since their role in the fraud was uncovered. These men, their bosses and accomplices amount to a group of Russian “Untouchables” who act as if they are beyond the reach of the law.

President Medvedev, we urge you to:

  1. Order the arrest and prosecution of Lt. Col. Artem Kuznetsov, Major Pavel Karpov, their bosses and accomplices who are behind the murder of Sergei Magnitsky and the theft of $230 million from the Russian state;
  2. Formally recognize Sergei Magnitsky for his heroic contribution to exposing corruption and fighting for the rule of law in Russia, a cause for which he paid the ultimate price;
  3. End the attacks by the Untouchables on Magnitsky’s colleagues, Hermitage lawyers and others who reported their crimes.

The names of these Untouchables are widely known for their specific role in the corruption and the repression of Magnitsky (see a list published in English by U.S. Senator Benjamin Cardin and in Russian by Novaya Gazeta http://www.novayagazeta.ru/data/2010/049/00.html).

We urge you to fulfill your commitment to fight “legal nihilism” in Russia and to charge and prosecute these corrupt officials who have been implicated in serious crimes against the Russian people.

Respectfully,

We the undersigned

Уважаемый Дмитрий Анатольевич!
Если Вы любите Россию и Россиян, как и мы из-за рубежа, пожалуйста, освободите их от коррупции и от кражи государственного имущества теми, которые за него отвечают!
Желаю удачи в этой трудной борьбе.

This message should really go to Putin as he runs the country and is the biggest criminal in the country also. Putin needs to stop pretending to be Rambo for the media and do the world a favour and fuck off to another planet or do the decent thing and kill himself..Russia is full of scum, most of them being in the so called government.

J.P.Kalkhoven,
we have to stop those criminals

Your inability or unwillingness to persecute the perpetrators of Sergey Magnitsky's murder would be interpreted as cover-up, at best, or as participation in the crime, at worst. Whatever it is, shame on you and Mr. Putin!

It's a shame on government that it still didn't arrest all those people who is related to Magnitsky case. Господин президент, пожалуйста не забывайте что вы выбраны народом чтобы служить народу. Как же так получается что вместо того чтобы бороться с коррупцием и воровством денег из государства, вы покрываете жуликов и преступников?! Не ужели всех тех фактов которые были собраны не достаточно чтобы понять что это дело чистой воды мошеничество! У меня слов нет насколько я разачарован в ваших действиях. Жулики должны сидеть в тюрьме а все наворованное нужно вернуть обратно в казну. Даже если эти жулики сидят близко к вам, это ваш долг остановить и без того большую коррупцию в России.

I have no words to express my anger at current Russian government and complete impunity of corrupt officials in RF who can steal and kill as they wish. У меня просто нет слов, чтобы выразить всю полноту моего презрения к действующей пресловутой вертикали власти РФ и беспомощного подсадного твиттер-президента, на глазах у которого творится настоящий беспредел.

Уважаемый Дмитрий Анатольевич Медведев, незмедлительное расследование и публичное оглашения его результатов отвечая на каждый пункт озвученных обвинений необходимо вам самим в особенности. Промедление ставит вас под удар, навевая мысли о том что вы непосредственый участник этого мошенничества и расправы над Сергеем Магнитским. Просто невозможно что вам неведомо то что происходит с государственным кошельком – казной.

С каждым днем растет недоверие народа к власти, неспособной обеспечить соблюдение основных гражданских прав и свобод, отправление независимого и справедливого суда, достойный уровень жизни, защиту от разгула коррупции и преступности. Если это в ваших силах, остановите процесс деградации страны.

Russia cannot be a great nation while it is sinking in filth. Really cleaning up corruption from the top down (not just pretense) is the first step in restoring its dignity.

There is NO justice in Russia. The courts are biased, the judges are corrupt (their decisions only depend on the cash amount one can pay). Russian police is a bunch of uniformed criminals. Magnitsky's death is just one single case that went public, but there are many others who have to fight the system on a daily basis. I personally know the cases when courts took money to start criminal prosecution against innocent individuals and when police officers were bribed to illegally threaten and physically attack people. These are not just words; this is the life people have to live in Russia – life full of fear and insecurity.

It seems that the Russian government is not only corrupt but also cowardly. With normal human qualities you do not want to live in a society that murders its truth-tellers.
