Biography

On 20 February 2012, he was detained on charges of fraud, then the charge was reclassified to extortion. According to the prosecution, Achilov extorted money from developers who were building an apartment building with violations that allegedly took place in the same month; he was beaten and tortured during his arrest. A measure of restraint in the form of detention was chosen. Later, Achilov was charged with another extortion from a property developer, allegedly in April-May 2011. On 30 April 2013, he was sentenced to 11 years in a strict regime colony.

He was released in February 2023.

Иск

Иск — письменное требование в суд, в котором просят организовать разбирательство. Например, с помощью иска человек или орган (истец) может потребовать от другого человека или органа (ответчика) признать его право или исполнить то, что следует по закону (погасить задолженность, компенсировать вред и так далее). Если суд откажет в удовлетворении иска, повторно подать его нельзя. Вместе с тем отказ может быть обжалован в вышестоящий суд. Во время рассмотрения иска в суде адвокаты могут представлять интересы истца и ответчика.
