8.4 Annexes to Section 6

November 9, NTV, “Segodnya” (7 p.m.) the right to speak is given to a barrister Sergey of the convict Maxim Luzyanin (there are printed letters on the screen: “I ask realty owners for pardon in advance, whose property is located in the center. Revolt is revolt. One should have a sufficient supply of first-aid means: drugstores will be closed. Don’t be afraid of bringing of troops: the matter must be pushed through completely”).

A secret video of negotiations of a Georgian politician Givi Tarmagadze with “Levy Front” activists (Sergey Udaltsov, Konstantin Lebedev and Leonid Razvozzhaev) served as a basis of the film. These materials (they are treated as if the leaders of the Russian opposition prepare mass disturbances upon Georgian politicians’ command and on their money) are being promoted actively through all three federal TV-channels: there have been released 72 video plots related to that film within the period from October 6 till October 21 (First channel – 28, NTV – 19, “Russia” – 32 video plots).

Vladimir Markin said the following in “News” at 1.00. p.m. on October 22, on the First channel: “Razvozzhaev described in details how he together with Sergey Udaltsov, Konstantin Lebedev and other persons had been preparing mass disturbances on the territory of the Russian Federation. Also, he stated in that document that the persons mentioned were involved in mass disorders that had taken place on Bolotnaya Square on May 6. And which is also very important, he mentioned that financing of the event had been provided by Givi Targamadze”.

On the same day a presenter of the program “Vesti” on the “Russia” TV-channel announced a reporting related to this topic by saying: “Razvozhaev came with a confession and described in details how he had been preparing mass riots on Bolotnaya Square, as well as who paid and for what”.

But actually the plot contained neither confirmations, nor accurate quotations from Razvozhaev’s “confession”.

October 28, 2012, “Russia-1”, “Vesti nedeli” (News of the week) (8 p.m.). Reporter Evgeniy Rozhkov made an attempt to clarify why Razvozhaev had been charged with organization of conflicts on Bolotnaya Square: “Investigators confirmed: it all happened not spontaneously. Particular people and money supported the protest. Among other confirmations is a video of “AP-2” where Udaltsov is carrying out negotiations with colleagues regarding financing of actions from Vladivostok to Kaliningrad with a Georgian politician Givi”.

But actually Bolotnaya has not been mentioned at all in the video telecasted on NTV. It remains unclear what investigators’ confidence has been based on.

November 9, 2012, the First channel, “News” (3 p.m.) “The court refused to meet the application of his barristers” – it is all that was said.

May 13, First channel, “Vremya”, 9 p.m., reporter Vernitsky: “On May 4 there appeared an instruction for citizens of Moscow for actions on May 6 (an anonymous user’s page from www.vk.com is displayed on the screen). Calls to conflicts are distributed through the Internet (There appears the following information on the screen: “I ask realty owners for pardon in advance, whose property is located in the center. Revolt is revolt. One should have a sufficient supply of first-aid means: drugstores will be closed. Don’t be afraid of bringing of troops: the matter must be pushed through completely”).

December 13, First Channel, “News” (9 a.m.). There are four white carton figures on the screen. Voices over:

Razvozzhaev: I liked this breakthrough …

Targamadze: The situation on the whole turned out to be very, very… much better, nicely done.

Lebedev: It was very sharp, it…

Targamadze: Let’s say the truth, it turned out to be more than you had expected too, didn’t it?

Lebedev: Of course!

Razvozzhaev: Most people decided that there were no passway to the meeting site, and there were cordons near the “Udarnik”.

Targamadze: Who is it by the number? Oh..

Lebedev: Everyone but for Serega.

Razvozzhaev: Yes.

Eymaletdinov: Everyone but for Serega.

Razvozzhaev: Here it is.

Targamadze: Was it improvised?

Lebedev: Of course!

Razvozzhaev: No, a day before it!

Lebedev: Ok, let it be a day before …

Razvozzhaev: They visited the site…

Targamadze: So tell me exactly: a day before or it was improvised.

Lebedev: A day before, but it was an improvisation – why is it so?.. (is eager to give explanations).

Razvozzhaev (distinctly): Two days before.

December 13, “Russia-1”, “Vesti” (11 a.m.): “As it has been confirmed by the Investigation Committee, there exist evidence that Russian opposition was not only financed, but also manipulated from abroad. There exists an audio recording in Internet where Georgian specialists in ‘color’ revolutions were meeting with Russian opposition representatives, soon after May disturbances. Givi Targamadze praises Lebedev and Razvozzhaev for the bloodshed conducted on this recording” (It’s curious to admit that all that is supported by old video shots from Protest Anatomy-2 where Udaltsov is present).

December 13, “Russia-1”, “Vesti” (5 p.m.):

Razvozzhaev: I liked this breakthrough …

Targamadze: The situation on the whole turned out to be very, very… much better, nicely done.

Targamadze: It was very sharp, it…

Targamadze: Let’s say the truth, it turned out to be more than you had expected too, didn’t it?

In shot, the reporter Skabeeva is sitting with Vladimir Markin simply and in a rather intimate atmosphere at a table covered with a red cloth. There is a glass of water and a book in a red leather binding on the table:

- Was the scenario of the event developed from outside? – the reporter asks.

- Targamadze is ruling the opposition and Udaltsov’s actions almost in an online regime. It is all recorded. Here we can see an active Givi Targamadze participation in Bolotnaya events and also in a number of other actions that took place later” – Markin answers.

December 13, “Russia-1”, “Vesti” (5 p.m.), reporter Olga Skabeeva: “After a failure on June 12, when the action ended peacefully, the Russian opposition started to search for betrayers and consult the client, particularly the ex-chairperson of the election commission of Georgia”.

A correspondence in Skype between Konstantin Lebedev and an unknown interlocutor is presented on the screen which is dated…MAY 28! Viewers can see the following skype-message:

Kostya: We have a serious failure. Ilya is telling now left-wing activists Udaltsov is connected with Georgians in Minsk. It’s really bad. That’s why I need to talk to Givi.

In an 8 p.m. “Vesti” program all that text would be cut and reduced up to one phrase: “After a failure on June 12, when the protest action ended peacefully, the Russian opposition started to search for betrayers and found them. A Gosduma delegate Ilya Ponomarev was suspected of data leak”.

Skype correspondence of May 28 would be reasonably removed.

This video will be shown on the NTV on May 13 for the first time. Then this very shot will be seen on a placard which participants of a picket organized by Frank Klintsevich will be holding in their hands in support of the OMON (First channel, May14).

Then videos will be shown once again on NTV on June 4.

Then they will be repeated three times on “Russia” channel: on December 13, 15 and 27.

May 6, “Russia”, “Vesti” (8 p.m.) it was said: “It is known that there are about 12 injured policemen and OMON soldiers”.

May 8, First channel, “News” (6 p.m.) it was reported: “There are 7 of 20 injured law-enforcement officers with craniocerebral traumas and fractures at the UVD hospital already”. At the same time, none of the policemen shown in this video shot was even bandaged!”

May 11, Vladimir Markin, while participating in “Vesti” program on “Russia” channel (11 a.m.), confirms: “20 police officers were injured”.

This figure increased drastically by May 13. It was reported in “Vremya” program of the First channel (9 p.m.): there were 30 policemen injured during the events.

May 15, at the sitting of Gosduma reporting (“Russia” channel, “Vesti”, 5 p.m.) a similar figure was pronounced by the delegate Nikolay Kovalev: 29 police representatives were injured”. At that he added: “There are no injured people among demonstrators”.

The number of victims among police officers and representatives increased again by June 11.

“About 40 law-enforcement officers got bodily injuries”, was reported in “Vesti”, “Russia” TV-channel, 5 p.m., and once again on the next day at 2 p.m. The same figure is mentioned once again in this program: “Thus About 40 law-enforcement officers got bodily injuries then”.

As a result, only one hurt OMON soldier is shown on the screen.

May 28, NTV, “Segodnya” (7 p.m.): “There appeared shots in Internet today where a girl that looked like Dukhanina was throwing something at OMON soldiers”.

There is a girl with a band at her head and a backpack is throwing something indeed in the shot, but it’s completely unclear as for what she was throwing and at whom. There are many people and cameras around, but no OMON soldiers in the shot”.

May 28, “Russia”, “Vesti” (8 p.m.): “18-year-old Aleksandra Dukhanina has been detained in Moscow (there is a video with a girl in a band on her head taken from YouTube, where she picks something up and throws. Then she runs away somewhere. Shots from behind). One of OMON soldiers identified Dukhanina as that girl who had thrown a piece of asphalt at policemen”.

June 3, “Russia”, “Vesti nedeli” (News of the week), 8 p.m.: “Aleksandra Dukhanina. 18 years old. That’s she (there is a girl moving pretty fast over the square is shown on the screen). Dressed in a black dress, with a scarf, and ‘big cobblestone’ in her hand (it’s not seen on the video what she holds in her hands indeed) walks around an OMON soldier, raises her hand with a stone, and the stone is flying right at a policeman” (it’s seen on the video that she raised her hand only).

It’s interesting that shots with Dukhanina are shown by “Russia” TV-channel in the reverted order in comparison with its own reporting in “Vesti” on May 28. It was ending earlier with the shots where Dukhanina was running up over the square. Now the new reporting starts with these shots! Probably the channel representatives decided that due to a reporting cutting Dukhanina’s “fault” would look more convincing. Besides, “a piece of asphalt” in her hand (on May 28) transformed into a “big cobblestone” (on June 3).

June 8, “Russia”, “Vesti” (5 p.m.): “It is seen on these shots that Mikhail Kosenko dressed in a red shirt and black jacket takes part in the conflict and hinders guardians of order”.

His face is circled with a red pencil in a shot. It is seen indeed that the red circle is situated next to a policeman, in the midst of the mess. But it is not seen what the man is actually doing.

“And here are video shots where Stepan Zimin is being arrested”.

“A bottle with flame liquid, a wireless radio set, a face mask with slicks and a number of passports were found later during searches conducted in Zimin’s flat”.

June 8, NTV, “Segodnya” (4.00 p.m.): “It has become known that two more people involved in the turmoil have been arrested. Mikhail Kosenko and Stepan Zimin are suspected of force application towards policemen”.

There is the same conflict between demonstrators and OMON soldiers in the frame; some face (seen indistinctly) is circled with red ink.

Then the same frames are repeated with a bold man pressed by policemen to the body of the prison truck. The man is being checked up, and at that it looks like another OMON soldier is trying to put a cap on him! This time no explanations regarding identities of those people are provided. In all appearance, viewers should conclude themselves that those men are Kosenko and Zimin.
