Politics Ilya Yashin, sentenced to 8 years and 6 months in a penal colony, was transferred back to Moscow, to the same cell in SIZO No. 4 "Bear", from which he was transferred to Udmurtia before the New Year. The post was published in his Telegram channel.
“As you can imagine, my transfer was not very legal. The verdict has not yet entered into force, we are waiting for the appeal, and the court is obliged to familiarize me with the materials of the criminal case. It is clear that this acquaintance is possible only in the capital, since the materials are physically located here. So the trip to Udmurtia was a petty dirty trick from the series “Well, my friend? Circle in Russia?
Yashin said that he had already come to terms with the idea that he would remain in Izhevsk, but his lawyer Maria Eismont flew to him and recorded the violations. The defender signed the necessary statements with Yashin and immediately after the holidays sent a protest to the Moscow court.
“They twisted the law in their hands, frowned, but were forced to admit: yes, the rights of the defendant Yashin were violated, return him back. And now I’m already shaking in the “stolypinka” on the way to Moscow, ”the politician described his return.
Earlier, Yashin was transferred to Udmurtia, to SIZO-1 in Izhevsk. On December 9, 2022, the Meshchansky District Court of Moscow sentenced him to 8.5 years in a general regime colony under the article on the dissemination of "fakes" about the Russian army (clause "e" part 2 of article 207.3 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), which at that time was the most severe sentence under this article. The case was initiated because of Yashin's stream about the crimes of the Russian military in Bucha. In May, Yashin was fined 30,000 rubles under an article on “discrediting the Russian army” for publishing a 1969 photograph of protests against the Vietnam War. "Bombing for peace is like fucking for virginity." 50 years have passed, but the slogans are still relevant, ”the politician signed the photo. In total, four protocols were drawn up against him under the article on “discrediting” the army.
