Defence explains protraction of Geriev's trial by manipulations with pressure statement

The court session on the case of Zhalaudi Geriev, a correspondent of the "Caucasian Knot", was not resumed after the break. According to the presiding judge, one of the judges needed medical care. During the break, the brought to the court the original judgement on the refusal to investigate the Geriev's application about his kidnapping and use of violence during investigatory actions; and the defence believes that waiting for this document was the real reason of the delay.

The today's demands to disqualify the presiding judge and the whole panel of judges were put forward, it is impossible to trust the judges any longer, said the advocate Alaudi Musaev.

According to his story, the situation with the transfer of the document during the break also shows that the judges cannot be trusted in. The unmotivated delay of the trial has to do with manipulations of the materials of the case, Mr Musaev believes.
