“Who immediately took revenge on Gennady Basov by putting him behind bars on charges of bribery from businessman Rapoport, who claims that he saw Basov only on a TV screen, did not receive offers from him for a bribe, but transferred a large amount through a woman he knew in order to Did Basov interfere with his business?
It’s a paradox, but Basov was arrested on September 29, 2015, but according to the case materials, the “crime” - transferring a bribe to him through an intermediary - was committed the next day, September 30!
Over two years of investigation and court hearings, the fact of bribery has not been proven. Judge E.Yu. Mudrova issued a dissenting opinion, pointing out a number of violations of the criminal procedure code, and issued a conclusion: the verdict of the first instance should be overturned.
The court is as follows - on July 28, 2017, it completely canceled three articles of the charge: bribery, abuse of official position and commercial bribery, for which he was entitled to 9 years of strict regime! But instead of the expected release, he was found guilty of a ridiculous charge - attempted fraud, with a stay of 6 years in a general regime colony.
It makes you think that the Ukrainian press and the Internet are full of gloating about the “black ingratitude of the authorities of Mother Russia towards their faithful defender,” which, of course, is not good for the reputation of our country. Friends and fellow party members of Basov constantly hold pickets under the slogan “Freedom for Gennady Basov!” The leaders of socio-political organizations of the hero city of Sevastopol are sending collective letters to the authorities in Moscow...
Who is taking revenge on the brave leader of a popular party, whose merits in the reunification of Crimea with Russia are well known? By whose evil will he is subjected to repression for an unproven crime, and loses his health in the cell.
Let’s compare it with humane punishments for proven bribes worth millions - house arrest, suspended sentence... and Gennady has now already been sent to prison,” the journalist’s material says.
The portal also опубликовал documentary film created by Basov's defenders. The tape is called “Don’t hope you won’t break me!”
