For various “voices” and “memorials” the theme of “oppression of rights and freedoms”, as they say, does not leave the front pages. The cat threw the kittens ... If there is no water in the tap ... The message of the material is about one — the rights are in Russia (not that, you know, in the democratic West, and certainly not in megademocratic Ukraine) because they are in vain, and therefore one must either “throw out of this country”, or “change the power”, and one and the other - today, now ...
However, the negative attitude of the majority of Russians to those individuals and desks who call themselves human rights defenders, were also quickly decided to be saddled by individual representatives of the bureaucracy. A whole subclass of Russian officials, who adapted themselves to the new political reality, appeared, so that even those who are ready for quite constructive criticism of their work are ready to declare (new-fashioned Ukrainian) "shpigunami."
An official or an office under his control (which is, by and large, a single whole) is found guilty of fraud or corrupt activities by fellow citizens, including local media — a car is being started, whose gears are spinning for the sole purpose of reducing accounts with those who caught it. Like, how could the most honest of the most honest managers of the housing and utilities department or the city building take from the state, from the people some millions of rubles - yes, all this is a blatant lie, and slanderers - they are not even slanderers, but hired employees of either American or God knows what other diplomatic missions or special services, leading, of course, destructive activities and prevent crystal honest officials to carry out their work aimed at increasing the people's wealth.
Apparently, there were such representatives of the bureaucratic apparatus, riding the wave of popular discontent with the activity of “certain groups of defense workers” in Reutov, near Moscow. Immediately it is worth making a reservation, saying that история, which will be discussed below, has no relation to the direct topic of Military Survey, but when it comes to presumptuous officials who have decided that they are not hired employees, but feudal princes, it would be somewhat strange to ignore the problem. The Reutov team found out about the Reutov case from a well-known blogger Sergey Kolyasnikov (zergulio). Here is link.
The beginning of the story is quite domestic, but its development ...
The thing is that in the town near Moscow there was a man (his name was Yevgeny Kurakin) who decided that the unjustified appearance of doubled and tripled figures in payments for utilities services should not be tolerated. Being chosen for the public position of a senior at home, Yevgeny decided to take up the issue of house maintenance with residential housing companies. Neighbors, seeing that Yevgeny is taking the case very seriously, decided to elect him as the chairman of the Home Owners Association “Parkovaya, 8”. It should be noted that by that time (and it was in 2011), residents of the house already had a negative experience of communicating with the house servicing company, which drew convenient figures in the receipts, explaining more and more new graphs of “increased comfort of housing”. Meanwhile, the tenants "did not observe an increase in comfort," but they saw that even those bloopers who were allowed during the construction of the house were not eliminated.
Yevgeny Kurakin resolved the issue simply - he refused the services of the company servicing the house at that time and entered into a new contract - with the company Veles, which offered much more reasonable prices for services. The numbers in the bills immediately became different, with the savings, the residents managed to elevate the entrances, turning them into truly domestic ones - tiles, flowers, paintings, mirrors, beautiful chandeliers - this is their home, and they pay for living there.
Then Evgeny Kurakin filed a lawsuit against LLC IC Centrstroy-M, which built the house on Parkovaya, and which is the main developer of the Moscow region city. And, lo and behold! - The court sided with the Parkovaya, 8 Homeowner Ownership Association, and decided to recover a tidy sum for the defects with the IC Centrostroi-M. Decided to decide something, but only the company to pay the money is clearly not in a hurry ...
Moreover, in “Tsentrostroi-M” they quickly realized that something had to be done with this Kurakin, because if the court sided with an individual housing association, it could side with others, because the houses were built with the same same blunders, and, perhaps, with "modifications in your pocket." And law enforcement agencies undertook Kurakin in Reutov. It turned out that against the owner of the housing, encroaching on the "holy" - the SAMU system of construction and utilities - have opened a criminal case on suspicion of fraud. Supposedly, Kurakin did not ennoble the entrances in the way that they needed to be ennobled (apparently, housing and communal services of the Moscow region companies know how to ...), and stole money from "gullible neighbors". They say, yes, it was possible to buy not one but two chandeliers in the corridor of the first floor for those funds that the HOA operated with, and instead of figs and geraniums, put pots with magnolias and orchids ...
Particularly noteworthy is the fact that as witnesses (the accusatory line) in the case of Yevgeny Kurakin, who achieved a reduction in the amounts in the receipts for himself and his neighbors, were citizens who did not pay for housing and communal services for half a year or more. Like, their Kurakin and "robbed" ...
Apparently, the very same Centrostroy-M insurance company in Reutov is being supported by gentlemen from bureaucratic structures who care about the benefits of the population, and therefore, they took up with particular predilection. With regard to a person who really (not in a memorial) defended the rights of the same tenants as himself, a truly blatant preventive measure was chosen - imprisonment. It is incriminated to Evgeny that “he stole all the money of the tenants,” and even organized a criminal group engaged in fraud. Apparently, the investigation is considered a criminal group by the homeowners' association - the owners of OWN housing, for which people paid OWN money. Now Eugene, who was behind bars in 1,5 and was awaiting trial, faces up to 10 years of imprisonment with a fine of one million rubles. This is because the person tried to simply reduce (and reduced) the payment burden for the residents from the structures that sucked to the payment trough! Since August, Yevgeny, under pressure from the public, was nevertheless released under a pledge collected by people, but very soon judicial hearings on the case of the Reutov activist will begin.
The most interesting thing is that aiming the trunk "weapons”, Used to protect the corruption schemes created by them, to an ordinary social activist from the Homeowners Association, local officials and law enforcement officers brought the situation to the point that ultraliberal grant-eaters of all stripes began to stick around. If you look through the pages of publications with materials on the Reutov case, then you can see that the materials already contain local “Navalnists” and “Yabloko”, and who knows who are trying to score their own political points. Such ladies and gentlemen clearly don’t give a damn about the fate of Yevgeny, they are interested in the opportunity to indicate their interest in dismissing charges from an ordinary truth-seeker in order to once again declare that “only Maidan will save this country”. Like, you see, we, in contrast to the current authorities, would not allow this, and therefore it is necessary to "raise the wave" and "go out into the square."
This, by the way, is in many ways reminiscent of the situation in the Chernozem region regarding the preparation for the extraction of nickel in the protected Prikhopyere. If initially citizens were opposed to mining, which could have a negative impact on the ecosystem, for which the fate of the region is really important, then the ultra-left and ultra-right and burdened people decided to take advantage of the situation in order to raise a wave of popular anger with all the consequences for the region and the country. And now at thinned rallies - and belolentochniki, and MMM-sheep, and members of the society of alternative beliefs, etc.
It turns out that some officials of the same Moscow-based Reutov themselves did everything to draw the attention of grant eaters and grant suckers to the situation in the city, in particular in the sector of construction and utilities services. They wanted the best for their loved ones, but it turns out that they themselves are “firing”, and are already ready to start looking for “foreign shpiguns” who “all this was profitable.” This is about what the desire of corrupt officials of various stripes to save by all means and means by means of corruption can lead to ...
"Military Review" is counting on the fact that the court of the city of Reutov impartially understands the case of Yevgeny Kurakin and renders an acquittal verdict, because, based on the facts, it is clearly not sitting on the defendants do, not that ... Otherwise, it turns out that any civil An initiative that leads to a real fight against fraud and corruption will be a priori punishable if there is a bureaucratic interest in the case? As they say, we don’t need such football ...
