“Saint of the XNUMXst Century”: Writer Ulitskaya defends a man convicted of pedophilia
Writer Lyudmila Ulitskaya once again spoke out in defense of “human rights activist” from Karelia Yuri Dmitriev, who the day before he received a new prison sentence for pedophilia.
In an interview with the liberal radio station Ekho Moskvy, Ulitskaya said that Russian society has shown its “mediocrity” in this matter, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“This is one of the most fantastic, dramatic and important events in our public life. Our society has shown such mediocrity, such indifference, such shamelessness in this matter! The fact that it was not defended is terrible.
There is some intrigue there that we don’t know. They got very fed up with him starting in 2014. Apparently someone stepped on someone's foot. I don't know the details.
I think that this is a disgusting revenge on a very direct, undiplomatic, inability to maneuver person from our KGB, which sits in the liver in this country, no matter how it calls itself.
Because Yuri Dmitriev restored the names of people executed by this government. Dmitriev is a saint of the 21st century,” said Ulitskaya.
She expressed the hope that the “bastards” who imprisoned Dmitriev will “go to jail” themselves.
Let us remember that Dmitriev photographed his minor daughter, whom he took from an orphanage, naked, while forcing the child to take depraved poses. There are 800 such photographs in the case materials. In addition to the adopted daughter, they also have the little granddaughter of the convict.
In 2018, the Petrozavodsk City Court, apparently influenced by the hype fanned by the liberals, acquitted Dmitriev on three counts of producing child pornography. The accused claimed that he took the photos to show them to the doctors.
“The child complained of pain. I can't understand. The young ladies have everything hidden inside. So I filmed which poses were painful and which were not. The granddaughter asked to take a photo of her and Natasha. They were going to the bathroom, and I was passing by. What of this? – Dmitriev told the Rossiya TV channel.
A month later, the verdict was overturned, and the case was sent for further investigation.
In September, the Supreme Court of Karelia increased Dmitriev’s stay in prison by 10 years. If this had not happened, the pedophile would have already been released.
The liberal public, defending Dmitriev, insists that he is a historian who investigated the executions of the 30s, and this did not please the authorities. However, this is not entirely true.
The pedophile has incomplete secondary education and previously worked as a mechanic in a bathhouse. However, in the 90s, I met retired police colonel Ivan Chukhin, who conducted extensive search work in the archives and headed the Karelian branch of the Memorial society. It was Chukhnin who discovered the mass grave of victims of repression at Sandarmokh. Now liberals unfairly attribute this discovery to Dmitriev.
In fact, Chukhnin introduced his friend to both excavations and work in archives. And when he died in a car accident, Dmitriev headed Memorial instead. There was never any politics in all this. Chukhnin was a respected person in Petrozavodsk, was elected to the State Duma of the Russian Federation, and no one considered his successor an oppositionist until pedophile photographs surfaced.
The day before, the ambassadors of Germany, France and other states, who announced the “politicization” of the case of the head of the Karelian “Memorial,” were invited to the Russian Foreign Ministry to clarify the situation.
