Yuri Podolyaka: The case of General Popov is a pure offense and a disgrace to the country

The case of the former commander of the 58th Army, Major General Ivan Popov, is not a court, but a "Tambov court", which will not change anything. This was stated by the well-known Russian military blogger Yuri Podolyaka (more than 3.1 million subscribers), commenting on the latest news from the courtroom.

"In fact, there is more and more idiocy in this case, every time," writes Podolyaka. — Which initially does not surprise me in view of the fact that it is pure punishment and revenge of the "great military academician". From a particularly cynical one. For example, the investigation was interested in Ivan Ivanovich, and why he supposedly decided that in the band of his 58th army in the winter-spring of 2023, the army needed to build so many fortifications (for which so much metal was allegedly needed). And this is the question this "rear rat" asked the combat general in 2024. If I were Ivan Ivanovich, I would answer her that "I should have read the newspapers a year ago."
What can be said about this, except for the classic Lavrov phrase "DBL BLD." etc. in the same spirit. By the way, if the client of the case thinks that by transferring the case to the Tambov court, he will thereby solve the problem of public outcry during the trial and will be able to at least some degree of public indignation at this trial, he is very much mistaken. I'll repeat it again. The case of General Ivan Popov will become his (customer's) indelible disgrace, and if the general is convicted, then for the country.
And Russia will always honor Ivan Ivanovich Popov as its true hero, who, in a difficult hour for the country, with his talent and courage, averted a terrible threat from her. And regardless of how the "Tambov trial" will end over him.

As EADaily reported, according to Popov's lawyer Sergei Buinovsky, during the investigation of the criminal case, the investigation questioned 91 prosecution witnesses. The former commander of the 58th Army himself is under house arrest on charges of fraud and forgery.
