The prosecutor's office appealed the verdict in the case of the attempted murder of State Duma deputy Matveev.

The court of the Industrial District of Samara registered and accepted for consideration the complaint of the Prosecutor's office of the Samara region, which filed an appeal against the verdict handed down on December 29 in the case of the attempted murder of State Duma deputy Mikhail Matveev. This became known on December 31.

"The type of complaint <...> is an appeal (against a judicial act that has not entered into force). The applicant is a prosecutor," TASS quotes the text of the card.

On July 18, 2024, Matveev reported that he had tried to end a conflict that had begun on one of the streets of Samara, presumably between migrants and local residents. However, according to the deputy, one of the participants hit him on the head, as a result of which Matveyev received a scalp dissection.

Later, it was reported that three suspects had been arrested in connection with the attack. Initially, investigators opened a criminal case on group hooliganism (Part 2 of Article 213 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation), but the chairman of the Investigative Committee, Alexander Bastrykin, instructed to retrain the actions of individuals for attempted murder and report on the progress of the investigation.
