The defendants in this case were four people: Maxim Baklagina, Vyacheslav Isaev, Mikhail Volkov and Yuri Tikhomirov. Since all four were accused of very serious crimes, the court had taken increased security measures.

In the courtroom, always present up to five fighters SWAT bailiff service, the armed “Glock” and convoy guarding the defendants. Came the verdict mother and sister murdered judge Chuvashova.

Earlier, the jury recognized Isayev and Baklagina guilty of complicity attack on the judge, and Volkov – the murder of anti-fascist Filatova and a member of the Caucasian nationalist gang “Black hawks “Rasul Khalilov. The jury found that the fault fourth player case, Yuri Tikhomirov, has not been proved.

«The court found that established in 2008 BORN group aimed to attack on persons of non-Slavic origin, pronounced leader and program of action, and its members used measures of secrecy, bought wigs and special clothes for trouble to find them, had a good physical preparation, studying tactics of combat units in the city “- began calmly read the sentence the judge Kozlov. According to the document, the court found that the defendants were stored in a large number of firearms (sub-machine gun “Suomi” sawed-off hunting rifles, revolvers Nagant pistol “Chizeta”), ammunition and explosives.

The judgment also states that in order to hinder their search for members BORN constantly changing removable apartments in Moscow, Russian regions and Ukraine.

Sami defendants listened to the verdict quietly, including that part which described the murder Chuvashova.

«According to the previously developed plan, jointly with another person Isayev and Baklagina established residence, car, path of movement Chuvashova judge and transferred to a person directly attacked, the murder weapon – revolver Nagant “, – said Kozlov. Investigators believe that the judge has shot another BORNovets – Alexei Korshunov, who in 2011 was undermined as a result of careless handling of a grenade in Zaporozhye (Ukraine), where he was hiding from the law enforcement officers.

It is for complicity in the murder Chuvashova Court and appointed Isaev and Baklagina life sentence. In this case, both were found guilty of another series of murders committed on the grounds of national hatred: antifascists Japaridze and Khutorskoy, taxi driver Khachikian (because he killed his passenger), killing an athlete Abdullayev and attempt to liquidate his fellow Nurichueva and attempted district Gagik Benyaminyana.

Third defendant – Mikhail Volkov – was sentenced to 24 years in prison for what he murdered activist movement “Antifa” Filatov and “Black Hawk Down” Khalilov. The first 10 years he will serve in prison and the rest of the time – in the colony. In imposing sentence, the court took into account that all three have pleaded guilty, and some of the defendants are minors.

«The Court also takes into account the fact that they are guilty of very serious crimes, long time never worked and are attempting to escape from the investigation,” – said Kozlov. Recall Baklagina and Isayev were detained in the Vladimir region, where they were hiding after the first interrogation, and Volkov – Ukraine. As for the fourth player of the case, Yuri Tikhomirov, the court acquitted him, in accordance with the jury’s verdict. He was charged with illegal possession of arms and banditry.

Nevertheless, the current criminal case Tikhomirov now has the right to compensation for unjustified prosecution.

Today, the victim was satisfied with the court decision.

«I accept this verdict, I think its fair. It’s hard to say I’m sorry, “- said in a tearful voice elderly mother Chuvashova Svetlana.

But lawyers condemned the decision of the court disagreed. “Only because Isaev watched the judge gave him life, and for several murders he has committed itself, he was given 19 years in prison. I see this as revenge on the part of the judiciary, “- said in an interview with reporters one of the lawyers – Marat Stepanov.

The lawyer Denis Volkov Zacepin said he intends to appeal the verdict.

«We will appeal the verdict. I believe that in both murders – and Filatov, and Khalilov – my client incriminated himself. In addition to his prosecution testimony on the episode with Khalilov is, in fact, the only evidence of his neighbor. It is during the first interrogation said that the killer was wrapped in a scarf, but because she did not know. But two years later on a photo it claims correctly identifies Volkov. It is at least strange “- said in an interview with” Gazetoy.Ru “Denis Zatsepin.

The defense also pointed out that the prosecution was based largely on the testimony already convicted members BORN – Nikita Tikhonov and Yevgenia Khasis, who is believed lawyers may be interested in biased testimony.

The defense has ten days to appeal the court’s decision. Complaint if it served to be heard by a panel of three judges of the Supreme Court.

Meanwhile, the Attorney General’s office has filed a court case in the alleged creator BORN Ilya Goryachev. He seeks a jury, which will select a panel Moscow City Court.
