The defendant in the “Network” case, Viktor Filinkov, was planted in the colony with two blades for his birthday

Viktor Filinkov, convicted in a criminal case on the Network terrorist community, told his lawyers that the colony officers tried to throw two blades at him. Prisoners are prohibited from having a personal razor, for which the convicted person can receive serious disciplinary action. Filinkov received a “gift” for his 27th birthday.

About it informs Telegram-channel Rupression, which covers what is happening with the defendants in the “Network” case. The authors published the act of questioning Viktor Filinkov by his defenders.

“On November 8, 2021, just before the conversation with V.S. Filinkov was thrown 2 pieces of a blade from a disposable razor. It was organized as follows: before the bath, Viktor Filinkov was asked if he wanted to change his clothes. Victor refused: the clothes were still clean and Victor liked his jacket, did not want to change it.

However, they did not listen to him, they cut off the tag from the old tunic, took away the old tunic and brought a new one. They gave out a shaving razor.

Viktor Filinkov took a bath and at 15:40 handed over the disposable machine to the duty officer in the punishment cell, Vadim Yuryevich. However, Vadim Yuryevich drew Viktor Sergeevich’s attention to the fact that there is one blade in the machine, not two. Viktor Sergeevich said that he did not hide the blade and offered to conduct a full search.

The employee did not find anything by touch, but with the help of a metal detector he found a piece of the blade hidden in the seam of his tunic (not by Victor). Then Vadim Yuryevich went to the bathhouse and “found” there a piece of blade hidden in the foam in the door.

Believes that what happened was a special operation organized by Vadim Yuryevich and his colleagues. “

October 30, the day of remembrance of the victims of political repression, Filinkov went on a hunger strike in a colony demanding the release of political prisoners. He still holds her.

Filinkov is serving a sentence in IK-1 in Orenburg. Since August 12, he has been periodically placed in a punishment cell for trumped-up reasons. For example, he allegedly did not greet the colony officer and refused to sweep the exercise yard. The convict was registered as “prone to systematic violation of internal rules.” This is Filinkov’s third professional account. Previously, he was included in the lists of those who are prone to extremism and terrorism.

A criminal case on the so-called terrorist community “Network” was opened by the FSB in October 2017. Then, for a month in Penza, Yegor Zorin, Ilya Shakursky, Vasily Kuksov, Dmitry Pchelintsev and Andrei Chernov were detained. Arman Sagynbaev was found in St. Petersburg, and the Penza residents Maxim Ivankin and Mikhail Kulkov were later detained in Moscow. Also, three Petersburgers were detained in the case: Viktor Filinkov, Igor Shishkin and Yulia Boyarshinov. Most of the detainees are anarchists and anti-fascists, who were also fond of airsoft. According to the investigation, young people have created a network community with the aim of committing terrorist attacks, preparing for revolution and civil war.

According to the FSB, no later than May 2015, the person involved in the case, Dmitry Pchelintsev, decided to unite anarchists and antifascists from different cities – Penza, St. Petersburg and Moscow – into “battle groups” to attack the security forces, attacks on government bodies, military registration and enlistment offices and branches of “United Russia” … Activists allegedly gathered in 2018 during the presidential elections and the World Cup with the help of explosions to “shake the masses to further destabilize the political situation in the country,” and then to raise an armed rebellion.

The defendants argued that the materials of the case were fabricated by the FSB, and that they gave confessions under torture. Programmer Viktor Filinkov and other defendants spoke in detail about the torture.

In February 2020, seven defendants in the Network case were sentenced to imprisonment for a term of six to 18 years. In the summer of the same year, Filinkov was sentenced. He received 7 years in prison.
