Nikolai Volkov, the secretary of the Moscow city committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, said that the police blocked four of their lawyers and did not allow them to go to court and file lawsuits to challenge the results of voting in the elections to the State Duma, the Kommersant correspondent reports. They are submitting claims to the Presnensky District Court, they will be from all candidates and from the party. The Communist Party of the Russian Federation must have time to file claims by Wednesday, September 29, before 17:00 – after that the deadline expires.
“Now they simply blocked our lawyers who prepared the claim. We will definitely serve it. But given the way law enforcement works, we cannot allow lawyers to be arrested and materials to go missing. Therefore, we are postponing it to another day, ”Mr. Volkov told Kommersant. With the date, he said, the Communist Party will be determined in the near future.
Nikolai Volkov explained that the building of the city committee itself had been cordoned off by the police for several days, and today the building of the legal service was also cordoned off. The city committee is located at 24k3, Simferopolsky Boulevard (Chertanovskaya metro station), the legal service is located at 17s2 Old Tolmachevsky lane (Tretyakovskaya metro station, where the reception of the first deputy chairman of the Communist Party Central Committee Ivan Melnikov is located).
Speaking about the essence of the lawsuits, he called the main problem remote electronic voting, then the formation of voter lists. “We have people who do not live in Moscow, but they are ready to confirm that they voted remotely in the elections in the Moscow system of remote electronic voting. The law does not allow this, but there are facts, ”said Mr. Volkov.
According to the secretary of the Moscow city committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, one of the main “machinations of remote electronic voting” is “compiling voter lists, and there may be people who do not live in Moscow, and bots, and there could be a vote for dead people, plus multiple re-voting.” …
The politician explained that the lawsuit will be filed “from 15 candidates and from the party, then there will be a petition to combine all this in one case, because this is one event in essence.” The first to submit it was ex-candidate Mikhail Lobanov (nominated by the Communist Party of the Russian Federation in the Kuntsevo single-mandate constituency No. 197).
Later today, a lawsuit was filed with the Moscow City Court by a State Duma deputy from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Sergei Obukhov, a lawyer from the Moscow City Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Nikolai Gerashchenko told Kommersant. As the parliamentarian explained in his Telegram channel, through the court he will try to cancel the results of “elections with the participation of electronic bots in the 205 Preobrazhensky district.”
Mr. Lobanov filed a lawsuit with the Presnensky Court of Moscow on Monday, September 27. The ex-candidate demanded to annul the voting results at polling station No. 5002, which was in charge of the DEG in the Kuntsevsky district. In his lawsuit, he refers to the fact that the list of voters included citizens who were not registered in the territory of the district, and “virtual” citizens, and the voting took place with numerous violations.
About how Moscow deputies prepared amendments to abolish online voting – in the material of “Kommersant” “They want to delete electronics from the laws”.
