Yashin states readiness to sue critics of his report

In the course of presenting his report "Criminal Russia Party", an oppositionist Ilya Yashin stated his readiness to present documents to the court confirming links of the ruling party with criminals.

The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that today in Moscow, Ilya Yashin, a Co-Chairman of the PARNAS Party, has presented a report about links of the Russia's ruling party with criminals. The four chapters of the report are dedicated to representatives of the "Edinaya Rossiya" (United Russia) Party acting in Southern Russia. Crimes of the Tsapok gang and the team of Mikhail Stolyarov and Said Amirov, as well as the killings of Kadyrov's opponents have been made possible due to the support of the party in power at the highest level, the report said.

The presentation of the report "Criminal Russia Party" was held today at the Moscow office of the Alexei Navalny's Anti-Corruption Fund, the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent reports.

At the presentation, Ilya Yashin has emphasized that the relevance of the report "is caused by the upcoming elections to the State Duma." He showed the audience a map of Russia, marking the places of work of the party members, involved, according to his data, in criminal and corruption schemes. "We are dealing with a full-fledged system, not with individual cases," he said.

"We are ready to present all the documents to the court, if necessary and if any lawsuits follow," Mr Yashin said while presenting his report.
