Consequences of the accident at the secondary school of hydroelectric power plants: one criminal case per blogger, one closed blog

    I want to start the post with condolences to all the relatives of the employees who died in the accident at the Sayano-Shushenskaya hydroelectric station. The consequences of this dramatic event are manifested in a variety of areas. Including in the field of freedom of speech in RuNet.

    The results of the accident and its discussion in the Russian blogosphere are quite serious (of course, here we do not compare with human losses): one criminal case against blogger Mikhail Afanasyev rukhakasia . A less serious consequence is that the diary of the engineer (according to some data from the secondary school of hydroelectric power plants, but more likely to the St. Petersburg NPF Rakurs) is closed by a certain greycygnet (according to various opinions - of his own free will).

    How to call the campaign to cover the accident - sabotage hysteria / PR for blood or real journalism - everyone’s moral choice. Consider the situation in more detail and summarize the dry results.

    Under the cut some details.

    Journalist

    Original news from Mikhail Afanasyev (08/20/09, 12:54):
    A criminal case has been launched against the author of this blog, journalist Mikhail Afanasyev. Last night, his apartment keys, mobile phone and system unit were seized from him. Apparently, as an instrument of crime. The wine journalist charged with "possessing sufficient, reliable and accurate information on the progress of rescue work at SS HPP, accused the SS HPP and Head of the Emergency Ministry of Khakassia Firsov of committing a crime under Article 293 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation"

    On the case, in the aisles as witnesses Journalists Eric Chernyshev and Grigory Nazarenko, who worked at the scene of the accident. They also seized mobile phones and system units.

    All three are signatories of the “underground knock” letter .

    I can’t be an expert regarding the recommendations given in the letter (maybe someone will help). Here, for example, is a critical look at the knock version . And an alternative version of what could be done .

    The criminal case, according to the accused, is the result of Shoigu's instructions.

    In response to a heated discussion on blogs about information about knocks in the flooded engine room of the Sayano-Shushenskaya Hydroelectric Power Station, Minister of Civil Defense and Emergencies Sergei Shoigu called for "punishing the disseminators of false information and not sowing panic."

    Further news of the criminal case was posted across the blogosphere by politically engaged Marina Litvinovich. Stillavin, whose political commitment is no less known, dug up that the investigator Eric Chernyshev is working for Rusal (Company No. 1 in the region is an influential player, but his role in this scam is still not very clear - it is logical that the melting process is due to the accident aluminum should at least slow down).

    Actually reference to the conclusion of the Khakass prosecutor’s office :

    The prosecutor's office of the city of Abakan verified and recognized as legal the initiation of a criminal case against the editor-in-chief of the online magazine "New Focus" Afanasyev M.V. The check on the fact of the dissemination of deliberately false information about the situation during the accident at the Sayano-Shushenskaya hydroelectric station on the Internet was carried out by the prosecutor's office of the city of Abakan, after which on August 19, 2009 the department of inquiry of the Department of Internal Affairs in the city of Abakan was based on the report of the assistant prosecutor of the city regarding Afanasyev M.V. A criminal case was initiated under part 3 of article 129 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (defamation combined with the accusation of a person committing a serious crime). It was established that on August 18, 2009, MV Afanasyev, having reliable and official information that the Sayano-Shushenskaya Hydroelectric Power Station is undergoing continuous work to eliminate the consequences of the accident and that all necessary measures are being taken to search for missing people, disseminated deliberately false information in the online magazine "New Focus", discrediting honor, dignity and undermining the business reputation of the leadership of the republic and the secondary school of hydroelectric power plants.

    Let’s leave the “Internet” network (oh horror), but think about the wording of the accusation.

    Engineer

    The closed blog of the ASU engineer Greycygnet is also interesting (thanks for the news to LJ user orleanz ):

    It should be noted that greycygnet could not be hiding as an engineer of a secondary hydroelectric station (as mentioned on some resources), but rather, but an employee of an automation company from St. Petersburg possibly NPF Racurs. The new automation system was installed just on the GA2, which flew into the sky. “

    ( Anonymous avmalgin blog comment ). He continues:

    “Now a commission is working there that will decide who is to blame. Accordingly, the participants of the regatta tensed up and their employees were instructed to tighten up and annihilate the public discussion of the extreme one. "

    Yandex cache kept the last entries (if not deleted, thendocx file of recent entries here ):

    I remember this one (dated 15.08.09):
    Well, that's all.

    The GA6 tests are completed, the reconstruction of the automatic process control system of all units of the secondary school is also completed.


    Moreover, the anonymous engineer did not write anything special. Unless about the unreality of the terrorist attack, as well as about the version with the destruction of the turbine cover (in which there is no special crime). In any case, during the online campaign, very aggressive characters ran into the user’s blog, after which the magazine was deleted.
    Summary

    1. There is a closed diary under the pressure of online gopniks.
    2. There is a criminal case against a blogger who tried to make the incident widely publicized and accused of libel against the leadership of the republic and the hydroelectric power station. Even if you have doubts about Afanasyev’s good faith, the fact of the criminal case, moreover, is also evident for an inadequate reason.
    3. There is an informational response from people who are considered to be pro-Kremlin bloggers (not that it was written on them, but in all such situations they took a changeable, but always similar to the official media position).
