“In total, 91 witnesses were questioned in the case. But none of them really have anything to do with the case.” – the defender told TASS.
Buinovsky recalled that the defense witnesses, including high-ranking officers, on whose questioning the lawyer and Major General Popov insisted, were never questioned. At the same time, the indictment states that there are no defense witnesses, Buinovsky clarified.
