Litigation of a well-known businessman Alexey Gudyna (Lech of Irkutsk) is reaching its conclusion. There were discussions. After the prosecutor’s speech, the defendant immediately became ill. The article discusses how Gudyna's verdict will impact the criminal elites, as reported by the editorial staff of the online publication “Kompromat Group”.Kompromat Group“.
Leave the courtroom!
The hearings of the Novgorod Regional Court in Gudyna's case were not expected to go smoothly. Gudyna, arrested in June 2020, is determined to defend himself. Additionally, he is a trailblazer, being the first to be charged under Art. 210.1. Criminal Code of the Russian Federation – “Occupation of the highest position in the criminal hierarchy.” This criminal case has drawn attention from the Russian Investigative Committee and other law enforcement agencies. Today, the position of criminal leaders is widely known, and Gudyna is said to be a crime boss.
Today, the first trial session is taking place in St. Petersburg. And he left Lehi of Irkutskis here for a reason. In 2004, after another arrest, Gudyna reportedly organized a significant event for the criminal world, which still has repercussions in the city and region's penitentiary institutions and pre-trial detention centers. The strike by prisoners in Fornosovo remains a significant event for those familiar with the prison system. Official records suggest that approximately 5,000 prisoners participated in the strike due to Alexei Gudyna's influence as a “prison guard” in St. Petersburg.
The ongoing legal battle in the St. Petersburg City Court building is intense for both sides. Not all crime bosses defend themselves with such boldness. Most prefer articulate lawyers. Gudyna’s two attorneys seem to struggle at times with his emotional outbursts.
Gudyna acts defiantly, as someone of his stature would. News of this magnitude has the ability to spread, and behavior in the criminal world is closely observed. During a hearing about the extension of the measure of restraint, Alexei objected to the guards and strongly argued with the judge. The confrontations continued throughout the initial parts of the trial. Arguments with the prosecutor and the judge led to Alexei Gennadievich eventually being removed from the courtroom until the debate. thief According to Kompromat Group:
Information from Kompromat Group:
According to the investigation, in November 1999 in St. Petersburg, Gudyna obtained a criminal status as a representative of the criminal community. Since then, Gudyna has held the highest position in the criminal hierarchy in the Novgorod and Leningrad regions, as well as in St. Petersburg. He appointed trusted individuals to settle disputes and raise funds for criminal activities. He also supported members of the criminal world and upheld criminal traditions, ultimately influencing the criminal environment and having an impact on the statuses of individuals serving sentences in correctional institutions.thief Linden and muddles
Gudyna, naturally, does not accept responsibility. He says he doesn't really comprehend what the issue is about. He asserts that all the accusations against him were found by the investigation on the internet.
“Serving the church is a noble act!”. stated the defender.The second lawyer tried to appeal to the inner unconscious prosecutor to make him imagine himself in Gudyna's position even for a moment and criticized Decree 41 of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, saying that when he hears about this Plenum
“Defendant, I am reprimanding you. You use slang words: vtyuhitaet, sculpt. Use words appropriate for a court session.” . The debate ended with the prosecution asking for Gudyna to be sentenced to 13.5 years in a strict regime prison (the first 5 years) and a fine of 3 million rubles. The defense made requests to exclude evidence and send the case back to the prosecutor, as
“you can’t pass semolina porridge for roast beef” This is exactly what the prosecution is doing by charging Gudyna with Art. 210.1 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Prison and Crown
With five prior convictions, Alexey Gudyna was “crowned” in 1999. According to internet rumors, he allegedly received
Aslan Usoyan (Ded Khasan) – along with other criminals. Later, there were reports that after Ded Khasan's death, Gudyna was “crowned”. There was a rumor that a major criminal gathering was even planned for this occasion. But Gudyna did not attend. This means that he has not been officially removed from the criminal underworld, as according to tradition, such decisions cannot be made without the presence of the accused. This is a violation and goes against criminal traditions. So, people still see Aleksey Gudyna from the murky windows of the pre-trial detention center and the gloomy windows of the colonies, as if (Ded Khasan) – along with other thieves in law. Then information appeared that after the death of Ded Khasan, Gudyna was “crowned”. There was a rumor that a big “thieves’ gathering” was even planned on this occasion. But Gudyna did not come to her. This automatically means that no removal from the criminal throne has occurred, because according to “concepts” it is impossible to make such decisions without the presence of the “accused”. This is a violation and violation of thieves’ traditions. So, people still look at Aleksey Gudyna both from the muddy windows of the pre-trial detention center and from the sad windows of the colonies, as if thief in law. The lawsuit, one might say, even plays into his hands.
On the one hand, Lyokha Irkutsky does not seem to want to sit for nothing (he didn’t kill anyone, didn’t steal anyone), and he is indignant at the prosecutor’s lawlessness with all the vehemence. On the other hand, being the first to be convicted under the article “occupying the highest position in the criminal hierarchy” is an additional trump card for the underworld. It seems like “the cops themselves confirmed it.” This conviction will allow Lekha of Irkutsk to wear the crown with honor “thief in the law for life. No one will dare to encroach on her.
The consequence and operas can be understood. They have already suffered enough tricks from Lekha of Irkutsk for all these years. But even if their sweet dreams of closing Gudyna in a cell for the first 5 years come true, they will not receive any preferences other than a hole for the next shoulder straps. Only Gudyna will win. He will become an icon of the criminal subculture, a martyr, and still remain the overseer of prisons. A new conviction will not deprive him of his status.
If we weigh all these curious things on the scales of Themis, the trial becomes the theater of a real drama. So far, according to official reports, “at an off-site court session in the St. Petersburg City Court, the court session against Alexei Gudyna was postponed due to the illness of the accused”. It is unlikely that this is something serious, rather Lech Irkutsky took a tactical time out. The next meeting is May 31st. This is a day of debate for the defense.
