The trial of Degi Dudaev, the son of the first head of the Chechen Republic Johar Dudaev, began in Lithuania. He is accused of participating in a criminal grouping, engaged in forging passports.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that in March 2011, Degi Dudaev, residing in Vilnius, was detained with seven Lithuanian fake passports on him. Also in Kaunas, his alleged accomplices were detained, in the house of one of them, according to the police, a factory for forging documents was discovered.
According to the prosecution, Degi Dudaev and residents of Kaunas Alius Yankauskas, Dainius Ivashka and Nerijus Montsyavichyus, acting as a criminal grouping, stole and forged a large number of documents. All of them, but Montsyavichyus, are still at large, the DELFI writes.
Johar Dudaev's son was an intermediary, as the investigation claims, between the manufacturers and customers of forged documents, RIA "Novosti" reports.
A preliminary hearing on the case took place on May 3. The session was attended by all the defendants; however, because their advocates were busy elsewhere, the trial on the merits could not begin.
