Double Vitebsk regional court canceled the decisions given by the judges October district court of Vitebsk , refusal to institute criminal proceedings on the complaint of a resident of Vitebsk region Leonid Zdrestova against UE " Vitebskoblgas ." Also twice a complaint activist still considered in the trials , decisions are taken by him - not in favor of an activist , but then these regional court decision had been declared illegal and canceled. In the end, the activist has complained to the judges. He wrote Lukashenko and heard : in relation to two of the judges taken effect.

First , who ruled illegal - as later admitted Vitebsk regional court - the decision not to initiate a case on the complaint of Leonid Zdrestova became deputy chairman of the court of October District of Vitebsk Elena Popkov. Followed in her footsteps went Judge Victoria Leshenko that left without complaint activist movement to protect the rights of consumers - and that , as confirmed by the Regional Court , it was again illegally . Finally, half the complaints still considered at the October District Court , both times the judge Natalia Lyakh . And each of the decisions of the judge Lyakh in the case, was illegal ...

According to the activist, the district court judge intentionally handed down their decision clearly illegal , depriving him of the right to a fair trial. "Cancel the two judgments in the same case - is a relapse of lawlessness. If the three are illegal decision of one court in one case - it is beyond common sense . After that, the judges involved in this should no longer remain a place in the judicial system of the state " , - said Leonid Zdrestov . That's what he wrote to the President , asking the latter to understand the situation and take appropriate organizational and staffing solutions .

Of course, the horrible treatment activist is not on the table, the president and his administration. Administration forwarded to the Supreme Court, which made a check and confirmed that violations of the judges had indeed taken place .

As a result, in the case of a judge October district court of Vitebsk Natalia Lyakh in breach of the law , disciplinary proceedings , which is forwarded to the Qualification Board of Judges of the Vitebsk Regional Court, as the Acting Chief of the Main Department of Justice Executive Committee took the decision to deprive a judge Lyakh Award for August.

Violations of the law by judges in appeals Leonid Zdrestova were discussed at the working meeting at the headquarters of Justice of the Vitebsk Oblast Executive Committee. Result: Deputy Chairman of the October district court of Vitebsk Elena Popkova pointed to the need for strict observance of the law and the implementation of appropriate controls during the consideration of civil cases other judges .

After all the trials unscathed out the judge Victoria Leshenko . The Supreme Court said Leonid Zdrestovu that he found no grounds for bringing her to justice.

History, it seems , is nearing completion . Perhaps now, after all, Leonid Zdrestov finally be able to get access to a fair consideration of his case by an impartial tribunal . Zdrestov's case is not isolated, so after his story the question remains: Does not it remind today's Belarus is not a European constitutional state beginning of the XXI century , which has a rule of law and the legitimate interests of each person can stand in an independent court , and some despotism of the East since the Middle Ages in which to achieve the truth , the man had no choice once , either directly or through close contact to the throne of a monarch , hoping he mercifully hear him and have mercy on his application ?
