Nice
21, October 2012
The
offender was hiding in the back scales near Julia
Arkhangelsky’s flat in Nice and assaulted her when she was
opening the door. The Public Prosecutor’s office of Nice deals
with the case. Mr. and Mrs. Arkhangelsky are convinced that
the Bank St Petersburg, their management and lawyers are
behind this new episode of harassment they have been living
since 2009, as long as they have no other enemies.
This
is the second criminal case against them. The file of the
first criminal case, which is being investigated since about
one and a half year by the First Investigating judge of the
Tribunal de Grande Instance (High Court) of Nice, is kept
confidential. This case has been initiated against a group of
people, among which owners and managers of the Bank St
Petersburg, for using forged documents in judicial procedures
in order to unlawfully mislead courts and obtain judgment
enabling them to misappropriate Arkhangelsky’s valuable
properties. The Criminal Code of the French Republic provides
for up to 10 years imprisonment and a fine of € 1.000.000 for
such crimes. Alexander Savelyev seems to use all his best
efforts in order to avoid being interrogated by the French
Investigating judge.
The
Court of Nice has already interrogated certain managers of the
Bank St Petersburg including Savelyev’s Deputy Konstantin
Balandin. The file counts at this stage about 5000 pages.
Vitaly Arkhangelsky’s lawyers expect that the Court will
release letters rogatory in order to obtain, from Russian
authorities to bring Savelyev’s for interrogation before the
Court of Nice.

VITALY ARKHANGELSKY SUCCESSFUL BEFORE THE FRENCH COURTS: RUSSIAN BANK ST. PETERSBURG MUST UNDERGO CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION
Paris, 29
June, 2012 – Today was released Court decision
made in Nice on 19 June 2012. The prominent Russian
Businessman, Vitaly ARKHANGELSKY, 37, has obtained a very important
decision in his favor from the High Court of Nice (France). Thanks to
this decision, he is now a step nearer to the proof of the 750
million € fraud of which he has been the victim in 2009,
orchestrated by the Bank of St. Petersburg and some high profile
authorities of the St. Petersburg Region. Recently, the Court of
Appeal of Aix en Provence refused for the second time to extradite
the businessman considering he would not be granted a fair trial in
Russia and is under a risk of inhumane treatment (i.e. torture) if he
is extradited.
According to this
decision, Bank of St. Petersburg’s managing staff as well as
authorities that have presented forged and fraudulent documents to
the Court must now be investigated by a French Criminal Investigating
Judge and cannot obtain enforcement of Judgments obtained against
Arkhangelsky in Russia until the Criminal Investigation has come to
an end.

Lettre ouverte à M. le Président François Hollande
13 Juin 2012
Par
Aninha
Monsieur le Président de la République,
Vous venez d’être élu à la magistrature suprême. Nous vous en
félicitons et vous adressons tous nos vœux de succès au service des
Françaises et des Français.
Notre démarche est celle de citoyens français, russes et européens,
révoltés par les fraudes électorales ayant accompagné les dernières
élections en Russie cette année, et qui s’opposent à l’accaparement du
pouvoir par Vladimir Poutine et aux violations des droits de l’Homme en
Russie
Parmi ceux d’entre nous qui ont la citoyenneté française, certains
ont voté pour vous lors de ces dernières élections, d’autres, sans
doute, ont choisi votre adversaire, mais tous ont suivi avec attention
les débats contradictoires et fournis de cette campagne électorale et
ont apprécié la chance de pouvoir faire leur choix en leur âme et
conscience, dans le respect de la Constitution et de la procédure
démocratique.
Malheureusement, les citoyens russes aujourd’hui sont privés de cette possibilité.

TRANSLATION
FROM FRENCH
By
Vitaly Arkhangelsky and Boris Berezovsky
Russian
businessmen
Last
week, the Investigation Chamber of the Court of Appeal of
Aix-en-Provence rejected for the second time the request for
extradition of one of the authors of this article (Vitaly
Arkhangelsky) accused by the Russian State of fraud and money
laundering. His co-author, residing in London, obtained similar
protection from the British government for the first time in 2003,
and since then the courts and authorities of Great Britain have
rejected all successive requests for his extradition.
For
the past several years, a wave of expropriation of businesses for the
benefit of police dignitaries, public prosecutors and bureaucrats has
been prevalent in Russia; these actions go unpunished under the
protection of the police State. Deprived of their property, thousands
of businessmen are imprisoned on the basis of falsified penal
charges. These businessmen include owners of the petrol giant Yukos,
as well as heads of small companies that were confiscated by ravaging
local civil servants. The Russian judicial system does not work since
it is allied with the corrupted authorities and serves as an
instrument for blackmail rather than protection. Statements of
American diplomats revealed by WikiLeaks concerning the
transformation of Russia into a “virtual mafia state” which “saw
the borders between the authorities and the criminality erased” are
not exaggerated.

Contre Moscou, une justice commune
La semaine dernière, la chambre d’instruction
de la cour d’appel d’Aix-en-Provence a rejeté pour la seconde fois
consécutive la demande d’extradition d’un des auteurs de cet article
(Vitaly Arkhangelsky), accusé par l’Etat russe de fraude et de
blanchiment d’argent. Son coauteur, résidant à Londres, a obtenu pour la
première fois en 2003 une protection similaire du gouvernement
britannique, et, depuis, les autorités et les tribunaux de
Grande-Bretagne ont rejeté toutes les demandes réitérées de son
extradition.
Ces dernières années, on observe en Russie une vague de prises de contrôle
