9am    In front of the Supreme Court, people are more than ever crowded. The line began to line up from the night. Many specially arrived from different cities of Russia. As the weather in Moscow is cold, most are dressed in winter. From time to time someone brought coffee and cakes for those standing in line. The police officers work professionally and in a coordinated manner to provide safety for the hearers of the process.

10 :15  The representative of the Ministry of Justice requests that the copies of the decisions of the CC's Steering Committee on the appointment of members of committees of MPOs be attached to the case materials.According to the Ministry of Justice, these documents testify to the leading role of the Center. Representatives of the CA are left to the discretion of the court. In their opinion, this is unbearable evidence. Attorneys pay attention to the fact that some documents are dated 1998 and earlier (that is, before registration of the CA under the new law). In addition, the contents of the certificates fully comply with the Charter of the CA. Inquiries were issued due to the fact that the charter of the LRO was changing, so the certificates were issued to confirm that the persons indicated in them were still members of the LRO. The court determines to attach, with the exception of those that are related to the time before re-registration of the CA,

10:25

The court proceeds to examine the case materials. The first document is the statement of claim of the Ministry of Justice. The court again clarifies with the representative of the Ministry of Justice on what grounds the department asks to liquidate all LROs together with the Center. He asks whether the Ministry of Justice intends to clarify the claims. The Ministry of Justice does not intend to. Lawyers of the defendant pay attention that the property listed in the claim does not belong to the CA.

"Lawyers of the defendant pay attention that the property listed in the claim does not belong to the CA. "

Incredible !!!!

[jayrtom]

What is the "CA"? our Organization?

Circuit Assembly

10:35
 The court examines the document "The Fundamentals of the Doctrine and the Practice of Jehovah's Witnesses."  Lawyers pay attention to the provisions on love for neighbor and tolerance (which directly contradicts the notion of "extremism").  They are also asked to read out the provisions that say that Jehovah's Witnesses are trying to give their children a good education. 
 

10:40
 The Charter of the UC is being investigated.  The court is interested in the question, are religious groups part of the structures of the LROs?  How many unregistered groups?  The lawyers explain that unregistered groups are part of the CA structure.  The concept of "structure" in the "Law on Freedom of Conscience" is connected with the separation of religion from the state.  Religions exist in accordance with their internal hierarchical institutional structure, to which the state does not delve.  In this regard, the UC does not maintain legal documentation related to the activities of unregistered groups, and therefore can not provide official information to the court. 

 10:47
 The court announces a 10-minute technical break.
