Disfavoured Major denied cooperation with the West

Already former Militia Major Alexei Dymovskiy, who was dismissed for criticizing his Novorossisk colleagues and bosses, denied, at the press conference held in the Independent Press Centre, charges that his revelations had been prepaid by western NGOs.

Today's press conference of Major Dymovskiy was one hour late. The hall of the Independent Press Centre was packed. When Alexei Dymovskiy appeared there, journalists were in hustle and bustle, as the "BFM.ru" reports.

Alexei Dymovskiy refuted all the charges that his words were slander prepaid by American NGOs. Only close people help him. He said that he met foreigners only twice in his - in the Amur Region, where he worked, with Chinese who traded in the marketplace, and at the age of 5, when his grandmother took him to Dnepropetrovsk and Alma-Ata. This was reported by the BBC.

Mr Dymovskiy has also stated that he is the holder of some secret information, but he will report it only personally to Russian Premier Vladimir Putin. The "Lifenews" adds that the ex-militiaman wants to address President Dmitri Medvedev with proposals on amending the structure of the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA).

At the same time Alexei Dymovskiy has named the person, on whom he was illegally forced to open a criminal case, the "Gazeta.Ru" reports. It was the son of Militia Lieutenant Colonel of Novorossisk Slyshik by name; Dymovskiy's boss had a conflict with his father.

Also Dymovskiy said that he had managed to make 150 hours of audio records criminating Novorossisk militiamen of corruption. According to his story, starting April this year, every time before going to work he put a tiny dictophone on his neck and switched it on right before service.

When Dymovskiy was asked about any support by his colleagues, Ruslan Kayumov, militia lieutenant of the Moscow GUVD (Chief City Militia Department), stood up and shook Dymovskiy's hand. As reported by the IA "Zhivaya Kuban", Mr Kayumov went on hunger strike on Thursday in protest against illegal, in their opinion, accusations of service duty abuse.

"Now I want to address officers: send you complaints to my telephone number," the Major has continued. "They've already written to me from Yakutia: hold out, we're with you; there're 400,000 of us."
