Descriptions

Roman Vidyukov is Deputy Head of the Main Investigation Department and former investigator at the State Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation. During the period when he held the position of investigator at the State Investigative Committee, Roman Vidyukov led the investigation in one of the cases in which Alexei Navalny was sentenced to nine years in prison in 2022. Roman Vidyukov also was a member of the preliminary investigation team for the “money laundering” case against Alexei Navalny’s anti-corruption foundation. Roman Vidyukov further led the investigation against Lilia Chanysheva, former Head of Alexei Navalny’s headquarters in Ufa, who was convicted of “creation of an extremist community”. Lilia Chanysheva was sentenced to seven and a half years in prison in 2023. During those court cases, Roman Vidyukov allegedly threatened a witness in order to force him to give testimony that would be favourable to the investigation during Alexei Navalny’s fraud case. Roman Vidyukov is therefore responsible for serious human rights violations in Russia, including arbitrary arrests or detentions and the violation of freedom of opinion and expression which is of serious concern as regards the objectives of the common foreign and security policy set out in Article 21 TEU.

EU Council Official Journal Sanctioned Entities,

Roman Vidyukov est chef adjoint du principal département d’enquête du comité d’enquête d’État de la Fédération de Russie et ancien enquêteur dans ce comité. Pendant la période où il occupait la fonction d’enquêteur au comité d’enquête d’État, Roman Vidyukov a dirigé l’enquête dans l’une des affaires dans lesquelles Alexeï Navalny a été condamné à neuf ans d’emprisonnement en 2022. Roman Vidyukov a également été membre de l’équipe chargée de l’enquête préliminaire dans l’affaire de “blanchiment de capitaux” contre la fondation anticorruption d’Alexeï Navalny. Il a également dirigé l’enquête contre Lilia Tchanycheva, ancien chef du siège d’Alexeï Navalny à Ufa, condamnée pour “création d’une communauté extrémiste”. Lilia Tchanycheva a été condamnée à sept ans et demi d’emprisonnement en 2023. Dans ces affaires judiciaires, Roman Vidyukov aurait menacé un témoin, afin de le contraindre à apporter un témoignage favorable à l’enquête menée dans le cadre de l’affaire de fraude d’Alexeï Navalny. Roman Vidyukov est donc responsable de graves violations des droits de l’homme en Russie, y compris d’arrestations ou de détentions arbitraires, ainsi que de violation de la liberté d’opinion et d’expression, ce qui suscite de graves préoccupations au regard des objectifs de la politique étrangère et de sécurité commune énoncés à l’article 21 du TUE.
