In Izhevsk, neo-Nazis set fire to an apartment antifascist May 23, at about 2-3 am, in Izhevsk, a group of neo-Nazis committed another audacious criminal offense. At this time, Udmurt "admirer of Hitler" tried to set fire to the apartment, which is home to well-known activist anti-fascist movement of Izhevsk - Oleg Serebrennikov. In addition, neo-Nazis in the entryway written several titles with threats to life and health to the anti-fascist.
According to Oleg, a group of neo-Nazis in the street threw a loggia apartment, where he lives a lighted roll of old matter and set ablaze the paper. From this the loggia the fire started, causing severe smoke in an apartment and damaging things, lying on the balcony. Neo-Nazis also made 11 shots from the air weapons in the apartment balcony glazing, where anti-fascist.
Moment of arson and shooting Oleg did not notice - he worked on the computer, but the noise in the apartment and spread a thick acrid smoke disturbed young man. Going to the balcony, he saw that part of the lodge on fire, he also said employees fire protection, trying to extinguish the fire. One of the firefighters asked them to open the door from the entrance, and apartments for the second calculation of fire protection. Oleg immediately admitted to the shelter a second group of firefighters, but their assistance is no longer needed - source of fire was extinguished. At the same time leaving the apartment in the staircase, an anti-fascist found that all the walls floor on which he resides, densely plotted with swastikas and other Nazi symbols, as well as death threats against him.
According to Oleg, after a group of firefighters left the apartment, he walked into the courtyard, in order to try to assess how badly burned loggia and look for the search of possible participants arson. Approaching the balcony, he noticed that at a distance of 30-40 meters from the fire are several suspicious persons. He then began to inspect the loggia and found the inscription offensive content, made a balloon with paint, as well as others made in the entryway. After seeing the loggia, an anti-fascist again turned to the side, where before had been unknown assailants, this time they were gone.
May 24 at about 13.30 Oleg caused police to inspect the fire site. After two hours on-call officers arrived October ROVD Izhevsk police captain Sokolov, DA Cursorily inspected the location of fire and taking a short explanation, Sokolov group called investigators and experts from the October police department. Experts and investigators arrived about 17.00, more than two hours inspect the fire site, photographed the graffiti left by neo-Nazis, anti-fascist questioned on the substance of what happened.
According antifascist Izhevsk, attempted arson apartment Oleg Serebrennikov was not accidental action of insane neo-Nazis. Most likely, this was a planned campaign of intimidation. Oleg has been actively involved in the development of anti-fascist movement in the city, his papers on the growth of neo-Nazi attacks Izhevsk, periodically go in the media of Izhevsk. Besides, it's not the first neo-Nazi crime in relation to Oleg. In February 2004 he was attacked by a group of neo-Nazis in the center of Izhevsk, for participation in which four were convicted neo-Nazi. Neo-Nazis trying to set fire to his apartment, of course, wanted that he has ceased to illuminate the existence of a Nazi underground in Izhevsk and crimes committed by neo-Nazis.
Over the past few years in Izhevsk There were several high-profile crimes involving neo-Nazis. In March 2007, about the eternal flame gang of neo-Nazis, was brutally murdered Stanislav Korepanov . In September 2008, at the hands of neo-nazis armed with knives injured three anti-fascist, one of them, Kapshunov Sergei, received severe multiple injuries and a miracle remained alive. In October 2008, two drunken neo-Nazis attacked a 14-year-old schoolboy who was born in Azerbaijan - Nadirli Shaheen-oglu. In November 2008, two neo-Nazi inflicted seriously injured anti-fascists Stukanovskomu Dmitry about a rock concert. In February 2010, in the courtyard of his house was almost killed antifascist Mark Kolbin, he was attacked neo-Nazi gang armed with knives.
According to activists of the anti-fascist movement of Izhevsk, this series of Nazi attacks are likely to be due to the fact that since 2008 MIA Udmurtia sharply stepped up the fight against anti-fascist movement of Izhevsk. And often the methods that use staff police are very far from the "law". Since spring 2008, the MIA Udmurtia against participants in the antifascist movement of Izhevsk was excited about 10 criminal Affairs. Majority of criminal cases the applicants were neo-Nazis who had "trouble with the law": almost all of them have criminal charges for attacks on people, vandalism. During the investigation of these cases, many anti-fascists were subjected to beatings and psychological pressure from some staff MIA Udmurtia. Perhaps, though the Interior Ministry as "pressed" anti-fascists, Nazis, a number of sees in this kind of "support" for his actions by the Interior Ministry, and consider it is an opportune moment to intensify the attacks.
