The investigators intend to challenge two of the four lawyers ex-the Governor of Khabarovsk territory Sergey Furgala, who is suspected of involvement in the killings of businessmen, informs “Kommersant”. Analysts believe that the way law enforcement authorities want to replace the defenders of the former head of the region loyal to the investigation lawyers, to later get arrested official admission of guilt.
Upcoming diversion for lawyers Marina Gorbacheva and Maksim Samoilov. It turned out that they had previously represented the alleged accomplice Furgala Nicholas Mitrukova, on the basis of the evidence which has been detained eks-the Governor. Given that the former head of the Khabarovsk territory does not admit his guilt, two of the defendants in the case there is a conflict of interests, note the investigators.
In this regard, the lawyers previously defended Mitrukova cannot be members of a Furgala. Themselves Gorbachev and Samoilov assure that their participation in Mistrikova was formal, because they even failed even once to speak with his client: he did not admit guilt, but then gave up all his defenders in favor of state-appointed and signed a confession.
The source of “Kommersant” believes that such a scheme law enforcement officers want to apply to Furgala. It is expected that lawyers of the former Governor they want to replace loyal to the consequence in order to force him to admit his guilt. Another source familiar with the position of Furgala on this issue, says that the former head of the Khabarovsk territory knows about the plans of the investigators and requires its lawyers to cause him psychiatric help if he suddenly goes on to deal with the consequence.
“If you say that I admitted guilt, know that I need urgent psychiatric assistance”, – quotes the edition of words Furgala.
