This press release, distributed by Alex Goldfarb of the Foundation for Civil Liberties on November 6, 2003, details a petition by Tatyana Morozova regarding the Moscow City Court trial of Adam Dekkushev and Yusuf Krymshamkhalov. Morozova, a victim of the Guryanova Street apartment bombing, alleges that the arrest of her lawyer, Mikhail Trepashkin, on October 24, 2003, was an FSB provocation intended to suppress evidence. Trepashkin, who collaborated with the Kovalyov Commission, was reportedly carrying instructions to reveal facts about the perpetrators and masterminds of the 1999 bombings. The document highlights that the trial was held behind closed doors and that Morozova was the only victim to refuse a non-disclosure agreement during the preliminary investigation led by FSB investigator Ignatiev. Morozova's sister, Alyona, is also noted as a member of the Kovalyov Commission for the investigation of the explosions.
