 The murder of Stanislav Markelov took place in daytime near the Kropotkin subway station. According to witnesses, the lawyer was shot in the head by a silenced pistol. Anastasia Baburova, an employee of the newspaper 'Novaya Gazeta', who standing next to Markelov at that moment, and tried to apprehend the murderer, but she was also wounded by a bullet to the head. She was hospitalized in critical condition at Municipal Hospital No. 1.The seriously injured Anastasia Baburova underwent surgery at the intensive care department at Municipal Hospital No. 1. Moscow's top neurosurgeon, Vladimir Krylov, performed all necessary intensive therapy. Physicians did everything in their power, but on Monday night, 'Novaya Gazeta' employee Anastasia Baburova passed away. Nastya January 19th, 2009. First Municipal Hospital, ICU trauma department No. 24. Time: 19:00 — 20:00. Two police officers stand at the entrance to the intensive care unit. They let no one pass, and say «no comment». One of them, however, mentions that only today were they put on duty. Near the admissions office is a bunch of teenagers, Nastya's friends. They were also not let in. They say that before the guards were warned, a girlfriend managed to get inside. She was only able to find out that Nastya was in surgery, and so she left. The teens also leave. 'Information' does not give any information. Yes, it is late, close to 8 pm. The lady in the window listens, but does not help: «Call tomorrow, after 11. There's no information on her. We get updates once a day. I'm tired of answering the phone, it's been ringing off the hook.» She advises coming back tomorrow, from 1 pm to 3 pm, when the ER physicians allow visitors. Despite the protests of the guards, I manage to get to the ER desk. A nurse enters the situation and agrees to take a piece of paper torn from my notebook, the hastily written number for the editorial desk — just in case. I hear her saying something to another nurse. I come closer. They say, «Of course, we can take the number, but we can only give information to relatives, and they haven't come yet.» «It's for the editorial desk,» I say. «We don't have any information about her condition.» «Pray for her. She is in stable but serious condition. She has already been operated on.» Between them they discuss what a rough evening it has been. They watch TV. There is I leave. I tell the editorial desk: stable but serious. The information is taken, but 10 minutes later I receive a text message from the editor: «She's dead». For some reason I call back, asking for details, which no longer have any meaning. An hour later, finally, I get on the Internet and find her picture. For some reason I needed to know what she looked like. I look. Ah, yes, of course, we are, that is, we were, in the same year of journalism school at Moscow University, in night school. I am in the radio group, and she was 'newspaper' since the first year. I remember that once she caught my eye: she was very thin, and for some reason she always had a I had not seen her lately at the journalism college (though I rarely see anyone out there), and I also failed to see her around 'Novaya Gazeta'. Just once I saw her leaving the editorial office to go to the subway, while I was coming from the opposite direction. Our fifth semester is the winter session, and it is in full swing. We consider ourselves adults and despise the 'daily' people because they are nerdy and parasites. Yasen Nikolaevich loves us, the 'evening editions', more than anyone else. We have just the right amount of arrogance, snobbery, and cynicism. We assume the right to skip exams and write complaints to the dean about teachers who for various reasons do not show up for exams. There is still more than a year until graduation. Our next test was on January 19th, 2009. «Why do you like 'Novaya Gazeta'?» an associate professor asks me. «Do you plan on continuing to work there?» I had just found out what happened and on instructions from the editorial desk I was to urgently get to the hospital. I told the associate professor nothing about this, only answering his questions. He wished me luck. It was already late in the evening when I suddenly realized that she was the first of our class to end this way. Written by Vera Chelishcheva. Stanislav Markelov: I defend the interests of Russian law «In justifying Budanov, we automatically recognize Chechnya as an independent state» An unpublished interview with Attorney Markelov We are printing a hitherto unknown interview with Stanislav Markelov, taken after he had returned from Chechnya in the early part of June 2002. Back then 'Stas' had become an attorney for the Kungayevs, the Chechen family accusing Colonel Budanov of abducting, raping, and murdering their daughter, This is the first time that this interview, taken six and a half years ago, has been published. At the invitation of human rights groups 'Memorial', 'Civic Assistance', and others, in the middle of May 2002, attorney Stanislav Markelov joined the suit against Colonel Budanov. He represents the injured party. At the time legal counsel for the Kungayevs was Khamzayev, who had fallen ill. Many embraced the appearance of Markelov in temporarily replacing him, but when they realized that he had come to assist Khamzayev for a protracted period, they were tortured by questions: what nationality was he, and did the Chechen Diaspora hire him? The Court had considered testimony, which at the time they considered final: psychological-psychiatric evidence given by the Serbsky Research Center for Social and Forensic Psychiatry, as well as the experts from the prosecutor’s office. Forensic medical experts in Moscow also testified, using data from the previous two testimonies. After acquainting himself with the case materials, Markelov took a tough stance towards North Caucasus military district court of inquiry, reproaching them for bias, for violating the rights of the injured party, and, ultimately, for violating Russian law. The results of the psychological assessments, and the Court's conclusions based on these assessments, forced the lawyer to seek the truth from another source. He brought to What, in your opinion, caused the replacement of the prosecutor, and is this a unique twist in the case? In this case I had to actually play the role of the accuser, while Prosecutor Nazarov became Budanov's fourth attorney, only defending Budanov's position. Many initially looked at the case as a continuation of the war. On the one hand here are the Russians: a federal officer and his lawyers, while on the other there are the Chechens: the Kungayev family and their attorney Khamzayev, who by the way, is very competent and experienced. When I, a Russian lawyer, joined the injured party, the picture changed significantly. All this time I had been trying to prove that it was all much more serious than anyone imagined. It is a vector, a trend. Even though our legal system is not based on precedents, this case contains a number of important legal issues, the solutions to which will change the future direction of Russian legislation, and this will apply throughout Russia — rules that are either based on the Law, or savagery. Take for example, revenge. We have always considered aggravating factors in this. Budanov constantly changes his testimony, but he is stable on only one point, that he justifies his actions as revenge for fallen comrades, and the Russian court, oddly enough, perceives this motivation in a positive light. If revenge becomes a factor in justifying a criminal act, then our entire legal system is on the road to barbarism. Revenge is the rule of law in Chechnya, and in case of Budanov's acquittal, the next question — if we begin to judge according to Chechen law — is who really wins? In justifying Budanov, we automatically recognize Chechnya as an independent state. I think that this fact, finally, has become understood at the top, and so this unique twist in the case takes place, at the last minute the prosecutor is replaced. Nazarov's indictment, and I have never heard a more justificatory speech, was so curious in terms of violations of the Law, that the highest levels of law enforcement in the country, I think, could just not stand it any longer. It called into question their honor and the entire system. But on the eve of this twist, the victim's lawyers made a move, as a sign of protest, by refusing to participate in the deliberations. Did this affect the course of events? I think so. This, of course, was a risky, desperate step, but we had no other way to be heard. Before this the Court, quite illegally, suspended the investigation, despite our statements that not all of the witnesses had been questioned, and that not all of the testimony had been examined. They declared that the next day the sides would begin debate. Shortly before this, Rostov Attorney Tikhomirova was invited by the Kungayevs to join the case, and the Court did not see fit to even allow her to get acquainted with the case. After the Court announced the beginning of debate, it was my initiative, and this was something, as far as I know, that has never before happened in the history of Russian judicial practice, the refusal by counsel for one of the parties to participate. Debate is the final presentation, it clears up the parties' positions, and if we took part, then it would have taken more than a day just list all the errors made by the Court. The response to our action was shock, but nevertheless, a Recently there was a complaint against you with the They said that I called it a kangaroo court and would not obey its decisions. I actually called it that, but not during the legal sessions, but after the hearings, when we were once again denied obvious motions. In the case file, for example, among Budanov's witnesses there suddenly appeared the names of two ‘informants’: Sembiev, who the day before Elsa's murder supposedly said that the Kungayevs were sniper spotters, and Yakhyaev, who seems to have given Budanov photographs depicting Elsa and her mother heavily armed and in the mountains. The Court ruled that the witnesses must be questioned, but added that it was impossible to locate them. So all by ourselves we found Sembiev. He was sitting in a Russian jail, so finding him was easy. And we located Yakhyaev by using his address. All this time he had been awaiting a subpoena from the Court. We asked that they be questioned, since they were Budanov's witnesses, but the Court, with the full support of Nazarov and the lawyers of the accused, refused to do so. So I called it a kangaroo court. These witnesses were fictitious? They were the main trump cards in Budanov's defense, but when we started to determine the facts we were faced with a series of legal jokes. Let's start with the photo, which was the cause for the arrest of the Kungayevs. This picture was nowhere to be found. No one ever saw it. Furthermore, from case documents it was known that both had participated in the first Chechen war, when Elsa was only 13 years old. Elsa's mother had a Group 2 handicap, and a serious illness, and could not even work in the fields, which, according to Chechen tradition, is obligatory for women. So imagine a What do you think about the scandalous expert testimony by the Serbsky Institute in the case? Initially, the psychological-psychiatric examination (of Budanov) was conducted by the Novocherkassk psychiatric clinic, and it concluded that, at the time of committing the crimes, Budanov was in an altered state of consciousness, though it was simply as a result of drunkenness. It is known that Budanov, on the day of the murder of Elsa Kungayeva, had celebrating his daughter's birthday. In his first testimony he said that he drank two bottles of vodka, but in the following testimony the amount of vodka was reduced to 600 ml, and then to 400. That is, the further the investigation proceeded, the more sober Budanov became. In the latest evaluation by the Serbsky Institute, he had finally sobered up. This evaluation came up with some very exceptional results: during the commission of the crimes of kidnapping and exceeding official authority, Budanov was “partially insane”, while during the murder he was “absolutely insane and in a twilight state of consciousness.” At the same time the experts said that he was not in a twilight state before or after the murder, and so as far as compulsory medical treatment they identified him as needing outpatient monitoring, and even decided that he was partially fit for military service. The fact is, the leader of this committee of experts is the notorious psychiatrist Pechernikova, who ‘sentenced to treatment’ many dissidents, including Vyacheslav Igrunov (ed: at the time a Member of Parliament), and initially this outraged both professionals and the public. The Court, however, refused to take it into account. In response to a personal telegram from Igrunov protesting the decision of any commission headed by such a compromised person (and similar telegrams had come from many of Pechernikova's other victims), a letter was sent to the Parliamentary disciplinary commission, complaining that, «a Member of Parliament is putting pressure on the Court.» At the time we joked that they finally found someone guilty in the Budanov case — MP Igrunov and Attorney Markelov. The results of the psychological-psychiatric evaluations outraged the most imminent Russian and foreign specialists in these fields, and they responded by sending the Court alternative evaluations. The Court, who in principle would not take any of this into account, suddenly, after the twist in the case, determined that the final evaluation was in violation of the previous and did not answer every question, and so it was necessary to appoint a new commission. It was proposed that Psychiatric Clinic No. 6 in Petersburg, and the Bekhterev Institute, conduct the evaluation, but the Court refused and again selected the Serbsky Institute. There is certainly some corporate solidarity here. The commission invited specialists from the What about the soldier Yegorov, who admitted to reporters from 'MK' that prosecutors forced him to confess to raping the Yegorov's video testimony that was made by the journalists, will, I hope, help in the investigation. But the fact is: the girl was raped while still alive. This was clear in the first forensic examination immediately after the autopsy, and the autopsy acknowledges this. Traces of blood, the result of Budanov removing the girl’s virginity, are clearly visible in the photographs. The pathologist who performed the autopsy did not do a histological analysis, allegedly due to the fact that he did not have on hand the necessary materials. I think that back then the analysis was not performed simply because it was an obvious case of rape. The next examination confirmed the pathologist's conclusion, but at the same time, however, it stated that the girl was raped either while alive, or immediately after death. Legally it does not matter; the fact is that Budanov raped Elsa Kungayeva. A later forensic examination that included specialists from Moscow concluded, with absolute precision, that the rape was not done by Budanov, but by the soldier Yegorov, who raped the dead body with a shovel handle during its interment. Independent experts, I turned to such We know that war brings out the very best, and very worst, qualities in people. For some it is self-sacrifice and heroism, while for others it is a chance for financial gain and to commit murder with impunity. So, in your opinion, who is Colonel Budanov — an original user of war, or its offspring? I think that the war was a means to realize the colonel's worst ambitions. Yes, war is always accompanied by many crimes, but the situation that Budanov organized was utter chaos, a blow primarily against Russia and against any chance of establishing relations with Chechnya. An interesting detail: on March 26th, 2000, on the eve of Elsa Kungayeva's murder, when the villagers of Interview by Irina Ozyornaya. Views: 3924 |
