Elections protocols were simply
changed by local Administration in Sergiyev Posad
Press Release
October 13, 2010
Sergei Kryzhov, leader of Sergiyev Posad YABLOKO, forwarded
to the Public Prosecutor’s Office a video demonstrating that
Chair of one of the electoral commissions was changing by
hand the results of the voting in a corridor of local Administration
at night after the election.
Chair of Electoral Commission No 2661 (village Zhuchki, Sergiyev
Posad Distrcit) at 4 o’clock in the morning is amending the
results of the voting. The action takes place in the corridor
of local Administration, where Territorial Electoral Commission
is also located. Sergei Kryzhov filmed this on his camera.
The video demonstrates that the original protocol has a stamp
and signatures by electoral commission members. Chair of the
electoral commission is putting at random figures into a fraudulent
protocol and fakes signatures of her colleagues. The video
runs for two minutes and after this Nadezhda Krivosheya, Secretary
of the Territorial Electoral Commission comes to her rescue.
According to Kryzhov, while the Secretary was trying to find
out what he was filming, the Chair of the electoral commission
took this time to disappear.
Vyacheslav Sitnik, head of the Territorial Commission, could
not explain this and did not show any interest.
Today, on October 13, Sergei Kryzhov has forwarded a letter
to the Public Prosecutor’s Office with a video attached. Kryzhov
demands from the Public Prosecutor to examine this case and
punish all those guilty of fraud.
