00:00:32Hello, the main legal topics and news of the day relevant to Thursday
00:00:35evening in the program "Vesti Dezhurnaya Chast" live. I am Andrey
00:00:39Ivlev. Guilty verdict.
00:00:42The Moscow City Court upheld the verdict against Russian blogger Valeria
00:00:46Chekalina, known by the pseudonym Lerchek. Earlier, she received
00:00:505 years suspended sentence with a large fine for transferring funds abroad.
00:00:53The defense demanded Chekalina's acquittal, while the prosecution
00:00:57requested a harsher punishment. In the end, no one
00:01:00was satisfied. Why didn't Lerchek appear at this
00:01:03hearing? How can a criminal record affect her activities? A report by Andrey
00:01:07Romanov.
00:01:10In the appellate building of the Moscow City Court, a long line
00:01:13of TV cameras. The press gathered for Valeria Chikalina,
00:01:16known as blogger Lerchek, but all the attention
00:01:20went to her lawyers. The main part of the appeal in Valeria
00:01:23Chikalina's case is being held in camera. This decision was made
00:01:27because information about her health
00:01:30was planned to be announced in court. Lerchek herself planned to participate
00:01:34in the process the day before, but a few hours before the start of the
00:01:37hearing, according to her lawyers, the blogger suddenly felt
00:01:40unwell and was hospitalized. Later,
00:01:43Valeria's admirer, Luis Squicharinii, clarified on
00:01:46social networks that Lerchek is not in the hospital, but
00:01:50at home, undergoing a 48-hour chemotherapy session.
00:01:53Chikalina and her defenders filed an appeal hoping
00:01:56for a mitigation of the sentence, but in fact, the court's decision
00:02:00remained the same: 5 years suspended imprisonment and
00:02:03a fine of 765 million rubles. The only
00:02:07change is that the ban on internet activities is now not a separate
00:02:10punishment, but one of the restrictions during the
00:02:13probationary period. To engage in activities related to
00:02:16administration, creation, maintenance, management, use of websites,
00:02:20internet platforms, information systems
00:02:23and other information and telecommunication resources, including
00:02:26those belonging to third parties, for the purpose of...
00:03:00pay by court order. Lawyers say, with the current income,
00:03:03it would take the blogger more than a thousand years to pay it off.
00:03:07Her income now, we presented a 2-NDFL certificate, there from
00:03:1156 to 8, I think, seven. In short, for the twenty-fifth
00:03:15year, yes, 344. In a year,
00:03:17for example, if she had started paying it 300 years before the founding
00:03:20of Moscow, the Mongol-Tatar yoke would have passed, the Napoleonic
00:03:24history would have passed, World War I, World War II, the Soviet
00:03:28Union would have collapsed, and she would have been somewhere in our days.
00:03:30Sounds very convincing, if one forgets that Valeria
00:03:34Chikalina was brought to the verdict by a business taxi driver, and
00:03:38journalists estimated her bag alone to be worth a million
00:03:41rubles. This was in summer, Chikalina had known for several
00:03:44months that she had stage four cancer, she came to the hearing accompanied
00:03:48by her admirer Luis Squicharinii, she behaved
00:03:52modestly. Excuse me, please, no comments. On the internet, the show
00:03:56continued, Lerchek posted a new video almost every day.
00:04:00She participated in social events, worked out in the gym, danced in
00:04:03high heels, and even announced the launch of new brands.
00:04:07I just want this
00:04:10brand to live, even if
00:04:13I'm gone. The court eventually banned Valeria
00:04:17from blogging on the internet, after she and her ex-husband
00:04:20Artem were found guilty of not paying taxes and transferring
00:04:24over 250 million in income from blogging and
00:04:27advertising contracts abroad. Artem Chikalina was sent to a penal colony for 7
00:04:30years. Valeria continues to dispute her suspended
00:04:33sentence. Lawyers have already stated that they plan to appeal,
00:04:37and will also separately seek to have the court allow Lerchek
00:04:40to seek treatment abroad. For this, unlike the fine, money
00:04:44seems to be available. Andrey Romanov, Gennady Talochkin, Dmitry Denishkin,

00:04:50Moscow and Baku are expanding

00:06:21the solemn opening ceremony of the championship took place. The central
00:06:25event of the opening ceremony was the parade of sports teams with

00:06:50Alexander Kurenkov, arrived in Azerbaijan, personally congratulating the athletes on their first
00:06:54awards.
00:06:59Also during the visit, Alexander Kurenkov held bilateral meetings with

00:07:152029. He thanked them for the professional
00:07:18training and organization of the championship. This is not
00:07:21some elite unit that only engages in
00:07:25high-achievement sports, no, that's not it, these are
00:07:29absolutely real active employees, even now in
00:07:32the team, if you ask them, they will tell you their
00:07:36positions, ranks, in the rank of major, serving in the main
00:07:39department of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations in Khanty-Mansiysk. tests in high-speed climbing with a

00:10:05Now about what will be on the Russia-24 TV channel this weekend. Watch
00:10:09a special report by Andrey Romanov. He talks about
00:10:12the criminal sect of followers of Batal Haj Belkhoroev.
00:10:16The organization was created as a harmless religious movement,
00:10:19but turned into a terrorist
00:10:21organized crime group.
00:10:25In each of these cottages operational-investigative measures
00:10:28were carried out, all of them, according to law enforcement officials,
00:10:31belong to representatives of Wird
00:10:34Battalhadji. Interregional criminal groups of
00:10:37Battalhadji followers committed high-profile murders, armed
00:10:41robberies, and illegal trafficking of precious
00:10:44metals. They kidnapped me, they put this
00:10:47bag over my head and tortured
00:10:49me thoroughly.
00:10:52Members of Wird were killed, who under some...
00:11:11several residents of Ingushetia handed over weapons to members
00:11:15of a terrorist organization, the perpetrators used these
00:11:18weapons during a terrorist act in Crocus
00:11:21City Hall.
00:11:306 years in a general regime colony for a billion-ruble apartment scam
00:11:34involving shareholders in Krasnoyarsk, a verdict was handed down to influential developer
00:11:37Pavel Nosovka. As investigators found out, he misled
00:11:41several hundred construction participants, even when funding problems arose,
00:11:44he continued to attract funds from shareholders, essentially building
00:11:47a pyramid. About how it collapsed.
00:11:51рухнула,
00:12:03As it was established, Nosovka, through created
00:12:08shell companies, for several years concluded shared construction agreements for
00:12:11the construction of housing. Almost 700 co-investors invested money in
00:12:15future apartments and waited for new settlers, but the construction
00:12:18deadlines were missed. The damage amounted to almost one and a half
00:12:21billion rubles.
00:12:39For 7 years we stubbornly fought for our house to be
00:12:43finished, for them to change the contractor,
00:12:46the developer. We went everywhere, to
00:12:49tent cities, to the Krasnoyarsk administration,
00:12:53we lived and slept there. Pensioners, old people, everyone.
00:12:56Despite the fact that the developer had financing problems, Nosovka
00:13:00continued to attract funds from shareholders for the construction of other
00:13:03objects. At some point, work at the construction sites stopped
00:13:06altogether. Despite this, he met with residents and
00:13:09assured them that the situation was under control and the houses would be
00:13:12built. I am fighting now, I was the first to state my personal
00:13:16motivation, but people call me and ask, I told them face to
00:13:20face that I will fight until victory, until I build, as long
00:13:23as I have.
00:16:14are used as shooters against UAVs, but against
00:16:17Baba Yaga-type UAVs. During selection, great
00:16:20importance is given to psychological stability,
00:16:23like in a joke, what do you feel at the moment
00:16:26of the shot, the recoil of the rifle? The less the sniper thinks, the
00:16:30better he shoots. The fighters camouflage their weapons and use
00:16:33camouflage nets. The snipers themselves call such a suit:
00:16:37"leshiy." Now we are hiding in the forest with the fighters
00:16:41and choosing a convenient position for observing that
00:16:44house. From this tower, instructors show a special board with
00:16:48markings, the fighters must determine what is depicted on the tablet
00:16:51and record it in the observation log. We act on the spot,
00:16:55adapt to the conditions. What are you doing now? I am observing,
00:16:59I have taken position. Do you see anything? I see
00:17:03movement. The tasks are performed by fighters in pairs, one
00:17:06works with...
00:19:38they conducted a raid simultaneously at three points in the city. Here is
00:19:42the second retail outlet, tobacco, but here they also sell juices, water.
00:19:45It seems that the seller is already calling someone. Let's see what
00:19:49is inside. In a small shop, tobacco is sold in
00:19:53the same room as food. The young man, who sold a pack of
00:19:56excise-free cigarettes to activists, calmly shows
00:20:00us a shelf with tobacco products. Well, here is the counter
00:20:03with foreign cigarettes, they are all here.
00:20:08without excise stamps, it seems there are no documents for them either,
00:20:12right? Well, I don't have information about
00:20:16that for sure. As it turned out, this young man is not even officially
00:20:19employed here, he has as much right to stand at the cash register as
00:20:23a random passerby, and his friend, the seller, assures
00:20:27that the counterfeit somehow ended up on the counter by
00:20:30accident. Now why are you making
00:20:33this up? You have a lot of such goods, you probably keep
00:20:36records.
00:21:20a brand that, in principle, should not be sold in our country. In addition,
00:21:24the police had questions about the legality of reusable
00:21:27electronic cigarettes, store windows are filled with a colorful palette
00:21:30of flavors. The so-called e-cigarettes do not have a special
00:21:34QR code that could be checked using the Chestny ZNAK system.
00:21:37According to Forbes magazine, at the end of November, the Public
00:21:40Opinion Foundation and the Right to Health company will send a package
00:21:44of proposals to the government for a complete ban on the sale of vapes
00:21:48across the country. Its basis is the results of a study conducted
00:21:51by 11 doctors, including the chief freelance
00:21:55specialists of the Ministry of Health. Regional
00:21:58bans, according to interviewed experts, will also not make vapes
00:22:01less popular; if one region stops selling them, they will start being
00:22:04imported from neighboring ones, and there are currently no mechanisms
00:22:08that would allow controlling such a transfer. According to doctors, the ban should
00:22:12extend to the so-called sticks, which for some reason are not
00:22:15even subject to regional restrictions. There is no talk
00:22:19of new bans on ordinary cigarettes yet, however, to the delight of doctors,
00:22:23they are losing ground year after year. According to statistics, the number
00:22:26of conventional cigarette smokers is steadily decreasing every
00:22:29year. As for semi-legal tobacco shops in
00:22:32Lyubertsy, near Moscow, law enforcement agencies will study
00:22:35the origin of counterfeit goods on their shelves. For now, shops with
00:22:39probable counterfeit goods are rapidly emptying. This is all
00:22:43that remains of once-packed display cases, empty pull-out
00:22:46shelves. All products have already been put into a box, and
00:22:49it will probably be sent for disposal.
00:22:53We can only hope that after the large-scale raid, the owners of these
00:22:56tobacco shops will lose the desire to sell
00:22:59counterfeit tobacco. Sergey Baghdasaryan, Viktor Barmin, Vesti,
00:23:03Dezhurnaya Chast. The kings of
00:23:06murky crystal will still have to answer, for now only for
00:23:09attacking our colleague. The Vladimir Investigative Department officially
00:23:13announced that they have opened a criminal case on the fact of obstructing
00:23:16the legal professional activity of journalists.
00:23:50After we showed these shots on air, the chairman of the Investigative Committee
00:23:53of Russia, Alexander Bastrykin, instructed his subordinates
00:23:57to conduct an investigation, here
00:23:59is the result.
00:24:01According to the story of the Federal TV channel about illegal
00:24:04actions against a journalist during filming in the city
00:24:08of Gus-Khrustalny, a criminal case was initiated under
00:24:11the elements of a crime provided for by part three of article
00:24:14144 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation
00:24:18obstructing legal.
00:25:20We'll tell you about the most interesting things on air, see you at
00:25:2321:35 Moscow time, well, and the information evening continues
00:25:26with our colleagues, as always with the most relevant facts.
00:26:01Well, the broadcast of the Russia TV channel.
