[00:00:32] Hello, the main legal topics and news of the day relevant to Thursday
[00:00:35] evening in the program "Vesti Dezhurnaya Chast" live. I am Andrey
[00:00:39] Ivlev. Guilty verdict.
[00:00:42] The Moscow City Court upheld the verdict against Russian blogger Valeria
[00:00:46] Chekalina, known by the pseudonym Lerchek. Earlier, she received
[00:00:50] 5 years suspended sentence with a large fine for transferring funds abroad.
[00:00:53] The defense demanded Chekalina's acquittal, while the prosecution
[00:00:57] requested a harsher punishment. In the end, no one
[00:01:00] was satisfied. Why didn't Lerchek appear at this
[00:01:03] hearing? How can a criminal record affect her activities? A report by Andrey
[00:01:07] Romanov.
[00:01:10] In the appellate building of the Moscow City Court, a long line
[00:01:13] of TV cameras. The press gathered for Valeria Chikalina,
[00:01:16] known as blogger Lerchek, but all the attention
[00:01:20] went to her lawyers. The main part of the appeal in Valeria
[00:01:23] Chikalina's case is being held in camera. This decision was made
[00:01:27] because information about her health
[00:01:30] was planned to be announced in court. Lerchek herself planned to participate
[00:01:34] in the process the day before, but a few hours before the start of the
[00:01:37] hearing, according to her lawyers, the blogger suddenly felt
[00:01:40] unwell and was hospitalized. Later,
[00:01:43] Valeria's admirer, Luis Squicharinii, clarified on
[00:01:46] social networks that Lerchek is not in the hospital, but
[00:01:50] at home, undergoing a 48-hour chemotherapy session.
[00:01:53] Chikalina and her defenders filed an appeal hoping
[00:01:56] for a mitigation of the sentence, but in fact, the court's decision
[00:02:00] remained the same: 5 years suspended imprisonment and
[00:02:03] a fine of 765 million rubles. The only
[00:02:07] change is that the ban on internet activities is now not a separate
[00:02:10] punishment, but one of the restrictions during the
[00:02:13] probationary period. To engage in activities related to
[00:02:16] administration, creation, maintenance, management, use of websites,
[00:02:20] internet platforms, information systems
[00:02:23] and other information and telecommunication resources, including
[00:02:26] those belonging to third parties, for the purpose of...
[00:03:00] pay by court order. Lawyers say, with the current income,
[00:03:03] it would take the blogger more than a thousand years to pay it off.
[00:03:07] Her income now, we presented a 2-NDFL certificate, there from
[00:03:11] 56 to 8, I think, seven. In short, for the twenty-fifth
[00:03:15] year, yes, 344. In a year,
[00:03:17] for example, if she had started paying it 300 years before the founding
[00:03:20] of Moscow, the Mongol-Tatar yoke would have passed, the Napoleonic
[00:03:24] history would have passed, World War I, World War II, the Soviet
[00:03:28] Union would have collapsed, and she would have been somewhere in our days.
[00:03:30] Sounds very convincing, if one forgets that Valeria
[00:03:34] Chikalina was brought to the verdict by a business taxi driver, and
[00:03:38] journalists estimated her bag alone to be worth a million
[00:03:41] rubles. This was in summer, Chikalina had known for several
[00:03:44] months that she had stage four cancer, she came to the hearing accompanied
[00:03:48] by her admirer Luis Squicharinii, she behaved
[00:03:52] modestly. Excuse me, please, no comments. On the internet, the show
[00:03:56] continued, Lerchek posted a new video almost every day.
[00:04:00] She participated in social events, worked out in the gym, danced in
[00:04:03] high heels, and even announced the launch of new brands.
[00:04:07] I just want this
[00:04:10] brand to live, even if
[00:04:13] I'm gone. The court eventually banned Valeria
[00:04:17] from blogging on the internet, after she and her ex-husband
[00:04:20] Artem were found guilty of not paying taxes and transferring
[00:04:24] over 250 million in income from blogging and
[00:04:27] advertising contracts abroad. Artem Chikalina was sent to a penal colony for 7
[00:04:30] years. Valeria continues to dispute her suspended
[00:04:33] sentence. Lawyers have already stated that they plan to appeal,
[00:04:37] and will also separately seek to have the court allow Lerchek
[00:04:40] to seek treatment abroad. For this, unlike the fine, money
[00:04:44] seems to be available. Andrey Romanov, Gennady Talochkin, Dmitry Denishkin,

[00:04:50] Moscow and Baku are expanding
[00:04:54] cooperation through rescue services. This was discussed by the Head of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations, Alexander Kurenkov,
[00:04:58] with his counterpart.
[00:05:12] training of participants in the World Championship in Fire and Rescue Sports,
[00:05:16] the competitions are currently taking place in Baku, my colleague Galina
[00:05:19] Khungureeva is accompanying the Russian delegation, here is her
[00:05:23] report:
[00:05:28] first meters, breathing is still even, two-meter obstacle,
[00:05:31] sprint, grab, now the main thing is to maintain balance, the most difficult thing is not
[00:05:35] to lose speed when connecting fire hoses to the nozzle,
[00:05:39] every second here is someone's future life, in Baku...
[00:05:42] the second day of the World Championship in Fire and Rescue Sports,
[00:05:45] a hundred-meter distance with hoses weighing 5 kg,
[00:05:49] athletes overcome it in a matter of moments, one of the best results
[00:05:53] of this day is 15.7 seconds. What was the most difficult thing at this
[00:05:56] distance? Overcoming nerves, the first final, yes,
[00:06:00] every start for us is a fight against ourselves,
[00:06:03] not against opponents. The World Championship in Fire and Rescue
[00:06:07] Sports is a unique competition, it tests not only physical strength and
[00:06:10] endurance, but also professional skills necessary for fighting fires.
[00:06:14] This year, teams from twenty countries are competing for the title of the strongest,
[00:06:18] Russia is represented by 24 athletes. The day before,
[00:06:21] the solemn opening ceremony of the championship took place. The central
[00:06:25] event of the opening ceremony was the parade of sports teams with
[00:06:28] national flags. The stadium in Baku becomes a place where
[00:06:32] countries, cities and characters meet. National
[00:06:35] motifs, bright colors, the opening ceremony of the sports celebration
[00:06:39] is a large-scale theatrical show that emphasizes the significance
[00:06:43] of the profession and unites participants, demonstrating
[00:06:46] unity and friendship. To support the Russian national team, the Head of the Ministry of Emergency Situations,
[00:06:50] Alexander Kurenkov, arrived in Azerbaijan, personally congratulating the athletes on their first
[00:06:54] awards.
[00:06:59] Also during the visit, Alexander Kurenkov held bilateral meetings with
[00:07:03] the Prime Minister of Azerbaijan, Ali Asadov, and with the Minister of Emergency
[00:07:06] Situations, Kemaleddin Heydarov. They discussed with their colleague
[00:07:09] current issues of cooperation and signed a plan
[00:07:13] of joint activities for 2027 and
[00:07:15] 2029. He thanked them for the professional
[00:07:18] training and organization of the championship. This is not
[00:07:21] some elite unit that only engages in
[00:07:25] high-achievement sports, no, that's not it, these are
[00:07:29] absolutely real active employees, even now in
[00:07:32] the team, if you ask them, they will tell you their
[00:07:36] positions, ranks, in the rank of major, serving in the main
[00:07:39] department of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations in Khanty-Mansiysk. tests in high-speed climbing with a
[00:07:46] storm ladder, women take the height of the second floor, men
[00:07:50] the fourth, what do you feel now, how fast is your heart beating,
[00:07:53] your pulse? My pulse is very fast, I don't know yet what time
[00:07:57] I showed, I am, yes, I am currently
[00:07:59] satisfied with my result, but I will prepare for the second attempt,
[00:08:03] the track flies underfoot, fractions of a second, first step push,
[00:08:07] second - jerk, arms working, legs pushing off, breathing...
[00:08:11] is tearing, the body, like a compressed spring a second ago, soars
[00:08:14] upwards, a skill that in a dangerous situation will help save someone's
[00:08:17] life. The total height of the training tower is
[00:08:21] 14.5 m. Athletes climb to the level
[00:08:24] of the fourth floor with a storm ladder. Here are
[00:08:28] the traces of it. The last record among juniors is
[00:08:31] 10.12 seconds. Imagine, you managed to
[00:08:34] blink several times, and the athlete is already at the top. At this stage, it is strictly
[00:08:38] forbidden to throw the ladder next. Standing on
[00:08:41] the windowsill, on the metal panels there are sensors, they
[00:08:45] record the time of touching both feet, as professionals call it,
[00:08:48] to close the finish platform with both feet, this
[00:08:51] is the only sport in the world where they run vertically
[00:08:55] as well as horizontally, firstly speed, secondly,
[00:08:58] endurance, strength, this is also psychological preparation,
[00:09:02] because they are not just running a smooth race, they are running with a ladder, the ladder
[00:09:06] needs to be hung in the tower, after the first approach, a good
[00:09:09] choice needs to be made.
[00:09:43] The finals of the first trials in Baku have already brought the first medals to the Russian
[00:09:47] team. In the men's relay, Dmitry
[00:09:50] Grebenshchikov took second place. Five Russians became the best in climbing the assault
[00:09:54] ladder. Men won all three prize places, women
[00:09:58] gold and bronze. Galina Khungureeva, Igor Nikulin, Vesti Dezhurnaya
[00:10:01] Chast from the Republic of Azerbaijan.
[00:10:05] Now about what will be on the Russia-24 TV channel this weekend. Watch
[00:10:09] a special report by Andrey Romanov. He talks about
[00:10:12] the criminal sect of followers of Batal Haj Belkhoroev.
[00:10:16] The organization was created as a harmless religious movement,
[00:10:19] but turned into a terrorist
[00:10:21] organized crime group.
[00:10:25] In each of these cottages operational-investigative measures
[00:10:28] were carried out, all of them, according to law enforcement officials,
[00:10:31] belong to representatives of Wird
[00:10:34] Battalhadji. Interregional criminal groups of
[00:10:37] Battalhadji followers committed high-profile murders, armed
[00:10:41] robberies, and illegal trafficking of precious
[00:10:44] metals. They kidnapped me, they put this
[00:10:47] bag over my head and tortured
[00:10:49] me thoroughly.
[00:10:52] Members of Wird were killed, who under some...
[00:11:11] several residents of Ingushetia handed over weapons to members
[00:11:15] of a terrorist organization, the perpetrators used these
[00:11:18] weapons during a terrorist act in Crocus
[00:11:21] City Hall.
[00:11:30] 6 years in a general regime colony for a billion-ruble apartment scam
[00:11:34] involving shareholders in Krasnoyarsk, a verdict was handed down to influential developer
[00:11:37] Pavel Nosovka. As investigators found out, he misled
[00:11:41] several hundred construction participants, even when funding problems arose,
[00:11:44] he continued to attract funds from shareholders, essentially building
[00:11:47] a pyramid. About how it collapsed.
[00:11:51] рухнула,
[00:12:03] As it was established, Nosovka, through created
[00:12:08] shell companies, for several years concluded shared construction agreements for
[00:12:11] the construction of housing. Almost 700 co-investors invested money in
[00:12:15] future apartments and waited for new settlers, but the construction
[00:12:18] deadlines were missed. The damage amounted to almost one and a half
[00:12:21] billion rubles.
[00:12:39] For 7 years we stubbornly fought for our house to be
[00:12:43] finished, for them to change the contractor,
[00:12:46] the developer. We went everywhere, to
[00:12:49] tent cities, to the Krasnoyarsk administration,
[00:12:53] we lived and slept there. Pensioners, old people, everyone.
[00:12:56] Despite the fact that the developer had financing problems, Nosovka
[00:13:00] continued to attract funds from shareholders for the construction of other
[00:13:03] objects. At some point, work at the construction sites stopped
[00:13:06] altogether. Despite this, he met with residents and
[00:13:09] assured them that the situation was under control and the houses would be
[00:13:12] built. I am fighting now, I was the first to state my personal
[00:13:16] motivation, but people call me and ask, I told them face to
[00:13:20] face that I will fight until victory, until I build, as long
[00:13:23] as I have.
[00:16:14] are used as shooters against UAVs, but against
[00:16:17] Baba Yaga-type UAVs. During selection, great
[00:16:20] importance is given to psychological stability,
[00:16:23] like in a joke, what do you feel at the moment
[00:16:26] of the shot, the recoil of the rifle? The less the sniper thinks, the
[00:16:30] better he shoots. The fighters camouflage their weapons and use
[00:16:33] camouflage nets. The snipers themselves call such a suit:
[00:16:37] "leshiy." Now we are hiding in the forest with the fighters
[00:16:41] and choosing a convenient position for observing that
[00:16:44] house. From this tower, instructors show a special board with
[00:16:48] markings, the fighters must determine what is depicted on the tablet
[00:16:51] and record it in the observation log. We act on the spot,
[00:16:55] adapt to the conditions. What are you doing now? I am observing,
[00:16:59] I have taken position. Do you see anything? I see
[00:17:03] movement. The tasks are performed by fighters in pairs, one
[00:17:06] works with...
[00:19:38] they conducted a raid simultaneously at three points in the city. Here is
[00:19:42] the second retail outlet, tobacco, but here they also sell juices, water.
[00:19:45] It seems that the seller is already calling someone. Let's see what
[00:19:49] is inside. In a small shop, tobacco is sold in
[00:19:53] the same room as food. The young man, who sold a pack of
[00:19:56] excise-free cigarettes to activists, calmly shows
[00:20:00] us a shelf with tobacco products. Well, here is the counter
[00:20:03] with foreign cigarettes, they are all here.
[00:20:08] without excise stamps, it seems there are no documents for them either,
[00:20:12] right? Well, I don't have information about
[00:20:16] that for sure. As it turned out, this young man is not even officially
[00:20:19] employed here, he has as much right to stand at the cash register as
[00:20:23] a random passerby, and his friend, the seller, assures
[00:20:27] that the counterfeit somehow ended up on the counter by
[00:20:30] accident. Now why are you making
[00:20:33] this up? You have a lot of such goods, you probably keep
[00:20:36] records.
[00:21:20] a brand that, in principle, should not be sold in our country. In addition,
[00:21:24] the police had questions about the legality of reusable
[00:21:27] electronic cigarettes, store windows are filled with a colorful palette
[00:21:30] of flavors. The so-called e-cigarettes do not have a special
[00:21:34] QR code that could be checked using the Chestny ZNAK system.
[00:21:37] According to Forbes magazine, at the end of November, the Public
[00:21:40] Opinion Foundation and the Right to Health company will send a package
[00:21:44] of proposals to the government for a complete ban on the sale of vapes
[00:21:48] across the country. Its basis is the results of a study conducted
[00:21:51] by 11 doctors, including the chief freelance
[00:21:55] specialists of the Ministry of Health. Regional
[00:21:58] bans, according to interviewed experts, will also not make vapes
[00:22:01] less popular; if one region stops selling them, they will start being
[00:22:04] imported from neighboring ones, and there are currently no mechanisms
[00:22:08] that would allow controlling such a transfer. According to doctors, the ban should
[00:22:12] extend to the so-called sticks, which for some reason are not
[00:22:15] even subject to regional restrictions. There is no talk
[00:22:19] of new bans on ordinary cigarettes yet, however, to the delight of doctors,
[00:22:23] they are losing ground year after year. According to statistics, the number
[00:22:26] of conventional cigarette smokers is steadily decreasing every
[00:22:29] year. As for semi-legal tobacco shops in
[00:22:32] Lyubertsy, near Moscow, law enforcement agencies will study
[00:22:35] the origin of counterfeit goods on their shelves. For now, shops with
[00:22:39] probable counterfeit goods are rapidly emptying. This is all
[00:22:43] that remains of once-packed display cases, empty pull-out
[00:22:46] shelves. All products have already been put into a box, and
[00:22:49] it will probably be sent for disposal.
[00:22:53] We can only hope that after the large-scale raid, the owners of these
[00:22:56] tobacco shops will lose the desire to sell
[00:22:59] counterfeit tobacco. Sergey Baghdasaryan, Viktor Barmin, Vesti,
[00:23:03] Dezhurnaya Chast. The kings of
[00:23:06] murky crystal will still have to answer, for now only for
[00:23:09] attacking our colleague. The Vladimir Investigative Department officially
[00:23:13] announced that they have opened a criminal case on the fact of obstructing
[00:23:16] the legal professional activity of journalists.
[00:23:50] After we showed these shots on air, the chairman of the Investigative Committee
[00:23:53] of Russia, Alexander Bastrykin, instructed his subordinates
[00:23:57] to conduct an investigation, here
[00:23:59] is the result.
[00:24:01] According to the story of the Federal TV channel about illegal
[00:24:04] actions against a journalist during filming in the city
[00:24:08] of Gus-Khrustalny, a criminal case was initiated under
[00:24:11] the elements of a crime provided for by part three of article
[00:24:14] 144 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation
[00:24:18] obstructing legal.
[00:25:20] We'll tell you about the most interesting things on air, see you at
[00:25:23] 21:35 Moscow time, well, and the information evening continues
[00:25:26] with our colleagues, as always with the most relevant facts.
[00:26:01] Well, the broadcast of the Russia TV channel.
