Heritage protests Chaika’s participation in Magnitsky case investigation

Interfax

Representatives of the investment fund Hermitage Capital believe the probe conducted by the Prosecutor General’s Office into the criminal cases involving the activities and death of Hermitage Capital auditor Sergei Magnitsky will not yield results.

“The Prosecutor General’s Office has been asked to increase procuratorial supervision, which has been and still remains non-existent. It’s absence led to the inhuman arbitrariness that led to Sergei Magnitsky’s persecution by the officials whom he found to have committed crimes, which lasted for a year, and his death in a detention facility,” Hermitage Capital said in a statement received by Interfax on Wednesday.

The statement alleges that officials from the Prosecutor General’s Office have failed to take measures to stop “illegal actions taken by officials in the Magnitsky case” for 3.5 years.

“In the course of the 12 months spent by Sergei Magnitsky in a detention facility, over 20 complaints were filed with the Prosecutor General’s Office alleging violations of his rights and illegal actions taken by investigators and Interior Ministry officials. All those complaints were either illegally declined or left without a response by the Prosecutor General’s Office,” Hermitage said.

Hermitage Capital recalled that Magnitsky filed an appeal contesting Yury Chaika’s actions as “illegal and violating his [Magnitsky’s] constitutional rights” on August 17, 2009.

“The complaints filed by Magnitsky’s lawyers to Yury Chaika on September 11, 2009, alleging illegal prosecution of an innocent person, physical and psychological pressure to break his will, and denial of medical assistance and surgery was also declined,” the statement says.

For this reason, “Magnitsky’s colleagues are protesting the continuing participation by Prosecutor General Yury Chaika in the investigation into the Magnitsky case.”

Earlier on Wednesday, Marina Gridneva from the Prosecutor Generals Office said the Prosecutor General’s Office will conduct a large-scale probe into all criminal cases related to the work by Hermitage Capital auditor Sergei Magnitsky and his death at the request of the president. hairy girls срочный займ https://zp-pdl.com/get-quick-online-payday-loan-now.php https://zp-pdl.com/fast-and-easy-payday-loans-online.php unshaven girls
