The Savelovsky district court of Moscow has left without motion the claim of the lawyer and combat veteran Alexander Treshchev to the singer Alla Pugacheva about her statements about the leader of the Chechen separatists Dzhokhar Dudaev. This was reported in court.
"The court left without motion the claim of A. S. Treshchev to A. B. Pugacheva," TASS quoted the court representative as saying.
At the same time, on the eve of the Savelovsky court of Moscow, a similar statement of claim was accepted for consideration. Treshchev asked the court to recognize the information disseminated by the defendant as untrue and discrediting the honor and dignity of the plaintiff as a citizen of Russia, a combat veteran and a patriot of his country, oblige the defendant to issue a refutation and seek compensation for moral damage.
It was also previously reported that Treshchev filed an appeal to the Prosecutor General's Office and The Investigative Committee The Russian Federation with a request to check the singer's interview for a crime under Article 205.2 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (public calls to carry out terrorist activities). The departments accepted the application for consideration. In addition, an application has been submitted to the Russian Copyright Society (RAO) to block the artist's accounts for the duration of a possible investigation.
As reported by EADaily, a number of statements by the singer in an interview provoked outraged comments.
In particular, Pugacheva stated that she personally knew the president of the terrorist Ichkeria, Dzhokhar Dudayev, and his wife.
"He was such a decent, decent, intelligent man, a handsome man. And what a wife — an artist, a writer, a politician. I'm even ashamed, she called me as if I could help with something, but how could I help?" — said the prima donna.
Pugacheva apologized to Dudaev's wife for not being able to "help them with something."
The head of Chechnya, Ramzan Kadyrov, reacted to these words.
According to the head of the republic, it was not enough for such "enemies of the people and traitors like Pugacheva to stupidly reflect" on the most difficult period for the Chechen people.
"This pathetic empty talk of an artist who absolutely does not understand the topic, it would be better to leave it somewhere deep in yourself and not provoke the whole people," Kadyrov advised.
Because of the words about Dudaev, the lawyer and veteran of military operations in Afghanistan, Alexander Treshchev, demanded through the court to recover 1.5 billion rubles from Pugacheva.
The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, told the singer's fans: "If you don't want to be disappointed, don't be charmed." She also recommended "not to endow people with qualities they have never possessed" and to make the singer a guru on all issues.
Later, Pugacheva responded to criticism with a post on her social network page.
"The momentary impulse to speak is gone. Wouldn't it be better to just finish your glass? I'd better leave smiling," the singer wrote.
