Information about launching of criminal proceedings over abduction of Leonid Razvozzhayev is not rue

The information spread in media about a criminal case allegedly opened over abduction of Leonid Razvozzhayev is not true. In fact the Investigative Committee is continuing a procedural check which was started as early as 22 October not over appeal from Razvozzhayev, but over information spread by media. Moreover, it was the Investigative Committee who initiated it. We should note that during interrogation Razvozzhayev did not once request the investigator to launch criminal proceedings against people who had allegedly abducted him, which is at least strange.

Unfortunately, the investigation has not managed to get any other information so far except confused and discrepant explanations from Razvozzhayev himself. Moreover, the defense attorneys have not yet provided any objective information indicating not only facts of abduction, but holding of Razvozzhayev in this or that place. Therefore investigation is unilaterally trying to find the truth. But even in these conditions investigators are going to complete the check in the time stipulated by law and based on its results to make a lawful and grounded decision on initiation or rejection in initiation of a criminal case.
