Those who wrote a denunciation of the “Police Ombudsman” were convicted: “Everyone was in shock”

All three received real sentences

The Tverskoy Court of Moscow sentenced the defendants in the scandalous case of the so-called “Police Ombudsman” Vladimir Vorontsov, who became “famous” for his exposure of internal affairs officers. He himself was previously sentenced to 5 years in prison, but now the real sentence has been assigned to those who wrote a denunciation against him.

As a MK reporter reported from the courtroom, Irina Andina, Evgeny Moiseev and Vasily Fedorov were in the dock. They were charged with knowingly false denunciation. Andina, after sentencing Vorontsov, admitted that she agreed to slander him by reporting sexual harassment on his part to the Internal Security Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

All three behaved cheerfully and confidently at the verdict, even joking after the announcement. Although the sentence itself was quite severe. Andina received 3 years in a general regime colony, Moiseev and Fedorov received 4 years in prison.

A friend of Moiseev said that he came from Penza to support his comrade. “The prosecutor asked for 5 years and 9 months, everyone was shocked, I think even the judge. We expected that they would be given 2 years each, they would soon be released, taking into account the time spent in pre-trial detention. I am shocked by such a sentence, this is the first time in “Such articles are real sentences. Zhenya is a good person, he worked in the police for a long time, and even in court. I hope that after appealing, his sentence will be changed.”

There were friends and relatives of the convicts in the hall, who asked what to give them in the parcel. The men asked for regular soap and pens, and Andina asked her relatives to write them letters.
