Citing its source, the Telegram channel Shot said that the defendants in the assault case against Moscow CSKA basketball player Alexei Shved, 21-year-old Knyaz Amirslanov and his 17-year-old brother Ramzin were seen on the streets. of Moscow. On May 5, together with 19-year-old Gleb Pisarev, they were arrested for two months, and the next day, the fourth accomplice, Yusuf, was detained. All four were to be held by the beginning of July. It was also reported that Ramzin left Russia on 13 June and flew to Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan. The whereabouts of the other three defendants are currently unknown.
It is worth noting that the Amirslanovs and Pisarev were accused of hooliganism using violence (imprisonment up to five years). He can take more of Yusuf, who hits the basketball player the hardest; He faces up to 12 years in prison.
Criminal lawyer Maxim Kalinov said in a meeting with socialbites.ca that the Amirslanov brothers could be released because the investigation petitioned the court to change the preventive measure.
“The situation here is simple, I will explain why. On May 2, Shved was beaten and the court ordered a restraining order in the form of arrests against the attackers. As a rule, this decision is made for a month or two. Firstly, in this case, it is possible for the court to detain the two suspects for a period of one month and therefore to be released.
The second option – the investigation can apply to the court with a request to change the preventive measure due to certain circumstances – admission of guilt, etc.
As a rule, if the investigator makes such a request, in about 90% of cases he is satisfied by the court – both in custody and in changing the restraining order.
In general, when the news came out that the suspects were detained, I was very surprised because the case was brought under paragraph D of article 112, part 2 of the Criminal Code, that is, for the crime of moderate harm to health. hooligan motifs. Penalty – up to five years in prison. This offense is considered a medium severity offense. I was surprised that the suspects were chosen as detention as a measure of restraint. As a rule, for crimes of medium severity, such a measure of restraint is chosen extremely rarely, since most likely the court will issue a suspended sentence for this crime. At the moment, I think the defendants have already confessed, they are cooperating with the investigation, maybe they have made a deal with the investigation. In return, they changed the preventive measure,” Kalinov said.
Also, talking about the young Amirslanov’s departure to Azerbaijan, the lawyer said that there was no point in hiding for such a crime, since for him the punishment would most likely be conditional.
“We signed a cooperation agreement with Azerbaijan, let Azerbaijan extradite the criminals. But I would like to point out that there is no point in hiding them. For this crime, 99% of suspects will receive a suspended sentence unless they have a previous extraordinary conviction or a suspended sentence.
But even if it is a condition then it could be another condition, only the term will increase. They have no reason to hide for such an insignificant crime, ”Kalinov concluded.
Recall that the basketball player was attacked near one of the restaurants in the capital on the night of May 1-2. It was reported that while leaving the institution, the athlete had a verbal confrontation with a group of men, after losing to CSKA in the semi-finals of the VTB United League from Krasnodar club Lokomotiv- they claimed Shved. Cuban. As a result of the discussion, the basketball player was attacked, the ambulance doctors who came to the scene took the athlete, who was later diagnosed with traumatic brain injury, to the hospital. Shved left the hospital on May 9.
The athlete described how he felt after the attack on June 6, and also recalled some details of the incident.
“Now I feel much better than before, recovery is going well. But the situation itself is terrible, it should not happen that some incomprehensible men act like this in the center of Moscow. I don’t know what’s on their minds. It’s good to be as it is now.
It could have been much worse. Doctors told me that 60-70% of cases end badly. Many die or are maimed.
They jumped and laughed while I was lying on the pavement,” said Match TV, conveying the words of the basketball player.
A few hours before the news that the Amirslanov brothers were released, Shved’s manager, Obrad Fimich, spoke about his client’s health and when the basketball player can return to practice.
Alexis is feeling better. He is being treated, his dynamics are stable. He will begin light training in early July and then move on to loads. But let’s see how it goes further,” Fimich told Sport24.
