Former Sochi judge's home raided, Nazi daggers and luxury cars found
Valery Sluka reviews investigation documents
A search was conducted at the home of former judge of the Central District Court of Sochi Valery Sluka. Recall that the head of the Investigative Committee of Russia Alexander Bastrykin initiated a criminal case against the former judge from Sochi.
The judge collected weapons
As reported by REN TV, during the searches at the home, a whole arsenal of weapons was discovered: bayonet knives, daggers with SS symbols, an AK-style carbine, a weapon resembling the German Schmeisser MP40 submachine gun, as well as a hunting crossbow in camouflage coloring. And also elite cars in the garage — BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Toyota Land Cruiser.
Sluka is accused of working in the interests of criminal authority Ruben Tatulyan, known under the nickname Robson.
It is noted that Sluka was detained in Vladikavkaz, from where he was planning to travel to Georgia.
Recall that on January 28, the chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia Alexander Bastrykin, with the consent of the Higher Qualification Board of Judges of the Russian Federation, initiated a criminal case on seven episodes of crimes provided for by Part 2 of Article 286, Part 1 of Article 305 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (exceeding official powers and rendering knowingly unjust decisions), against judge of the Central District Court of Sochi Valery Sluka, whose powers were prematurely terminated.
— According to the investigation, from June 23, 2021 to July 2022, judge Sluka, exceeding his official powers, in violation of territorial jurisdiction, unreasonably accepted for proceedings claims from citizens. Without actual consideration, examination of evidence, and without involving representatives of the defendant and interested parties, he rendered seven knowingly unjust decisions, leading to the illegal seizure of land plots in the city of Sochi from municipal ownership, — reports the press service of the Investigative Committee.
In the appellate instance, Sluka«s decisions were overturned, and the land was returned to municipal ownership. Investigative actions are being carried out in the criminal case aimed at establishing all the circumstances of the committed crimes and securing the evidence base.
Recall that in February 2023, the qualification board of judges of the Krasnodar Territory considered an appeal to bring judge of the Central District Court of Sochi Valery Sluka to disciplinary responsibility. Based on the results of the consideration, a decision was made to prematurely terminate the judge«s powers with the deprivation of the fourth qualification class.
The Council of Judges appealed to the qualification board after a comprehensive inspection was conducted, which established that judge Sluka allowed systematic and gross violations in the administration of justice. About two hundred decisions on illegal disposal of state and municipal lands, as well as on legalizing unauthorized constructions, were identified. Most of these decisions were made by judges Valery Sluka and Ruslan Taigibov. 120 court decisions were overturned as illegal in the appellate instance immediately, the rest — a bit later.
