‘Blasphemous’ Posthumous Trial Against Magnitsky Begins with the Forced Appointment of a State Sanctioned Lawyer to Magnitsky

February 18, 2013

Today at 11 am at the Moscow Tver­skoi Dis­trict Court, a closed pre­lim­i­nary hear­ing will be held in the posthu­mous tri­al of the late whis­tle-blow­ing lawyer Sergei Mag­nit­sky. At the pre­vi­ous hear­ing, the judge ordered the appoint­ment of a state sanc­tioned lawyer to rep­re­sent and give ‘legal advice’ to Sergei Mag­nit­sky who has been dead for more than three years. The for­mal pur­pose of tomor­row’s hear­ing is for the judge to deter­mine if Mag­nit­sky has been ‘prop­er­ly noti­fied’ of the tri­al and if pros­e­cu­tor has ‘obtained the con­fir­ma­tion of noti­fi­ca­tion in writ­ing’ from Magnitsky.

“The fact that this posthu­mous tri­al is going ahead, indi­cates that jus­tice in Rus­sia is turn­ing into raw and out­right ble­sphamy. The only place where a notice to Sergei Mag­nit­sky can be deliv­ered is to his grave at the Pre­o­brazhen­skoye ceme­tery, and any writ­ten con­fir­ma­tion would need to be obtained from his corpse. There is a spe­cial place in hell for the peo­ple orga­niz­ing this,” said a Her­mitage Cap­i­tal rep­re­sen­ta­tive. Read more
