The result imposes on them two articles of the criminal code. Defendants threaten real prison terms.
Responsible for painting the stars took on their own shoulders the Ukrainian rufer Pavel Usever, famous named Grisha Mustang. He posted to the world wide web a picture is on some of the colored rays of the star with the flag of Ukraine. The result achieved extramural punishment for his detention and stated in the investigation, But Ukraine did not want to give rufer.
"The indictment is composed of very vague, We can't defend ourselves from the abstract of charges. We asked the court to remand the case to the Prosecutor that the Indictment rewrote and pointed out how our clients could have jumped to destabilize the situation in the capital of Russia and provoke strong resentment, " said Lavrov.
He added that all based jumpers " absolutely apolitical citizens, who just happened to be in the wrong place at that moment."" The investigation considers that a star painted Ukrainian rufer, and our defendants jumped from the roof to attract attention to his campaign. But they failed to link him with the Mustang - no detail talk on the phone or by localization. On their clothes even no traces of paint, " added the lawyer.
