The court recognized the initiation of a bribe case against the ex-commander of the Swifts
Thus, the court dismissed the complaint of Morozov.
It follows from the complainant’s complaint that the case against Morozov was initiated on the basis of the testimony of the victim Novikov, “who is misleading the law enforcement agencies, having for this his own selfish ends”. According to defender Morozov, the testimony of the victim is not confirmed by anything, while the testimony of Morozov himself is confirmed.
In turn, the court considered that all procedural rules in initiating the case were respected, and the court should not check the truth of the grounds and evidence.
“The decision was expected, there are no miracles,” said Morozov.
However, his lawyer said that this decision would be appealed. “My client was the victim of an illegal operational experiment,” the lawyer said.
Thus, within ten days, the defender Morozov intends to file a complaint against the decision of the Odintsovo Garrison Military Court to the Moscow District Military Court.
The case against the ex-commander "Swifts" was initiated in early October last year. According to investigators, he allegedly demanded money from his subordinates for a free schedule of visits to the service.
The order for the dismissal of Morozov was signed by former Russian Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov on October 12, before the end of the investigation. The commander of the Swifts was dismissed from the Armed Forces "for non-compliance with the terms of the contract." The term of the contract of Morozov with the Ministry of Defense for service expired on October 15, reports RIA News.
