At the court hearing on February 5 were called experts from Kiev who conducted the expertise of the materials of the Ruthenian congresses, especially the Second European Congress of Subcarpathian Ruthenians. However, they defiantly refused to appear in court, and carried out their expertise even without a license.

Representatives of the Security Services believed that this counterfeit "expertise" would be overlooked. Now the experts themselves have already realized that the SCU has made them complicit in the crime against the Ruthenian people. Lawyers of the Archpriest Dimytry Sidor fully demonstrated the failure of the conclusions of experts, and their criminal intentions. In addition, Ruthenian lawyers conducted legal review of the Article 110 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine and proved its inconsistency with international law. Article 62 of the Criminal Code of the Ukrainian SSR read as follows:
" The calls for the forcible overthrow or change of state and social system, as well as appeals or other actions aimed at violating the territorial integrity of Ukraine .."

It was subsequently replaced by the Article 110 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, where the word "forcible" was deleted, and now even a word, a hint, syllable, or an indirect reference to the separation from Ukraine is strictly punished. This is the Ukrainian absurd, which thus turned Ukraine into one big concentration camp.

Archpriest Dimytry Sidor is being tried only for what he, as a Ruthenian, who knows the principle that claiming unclaimed law does not violate the law, boldly demanded to recognize the right of the Ruthenian people to exist in their native land and to implement the results of the referendum of the 1.12.1991.

Only two witnesses were present in the courtroom. One of them was the head of the Transcarpathian nationalist organization "Svoboda" O. Kucina. At the judge's question: "Where in the Memorandum of the Second European Congress of Subcarpathian Ruthenians you saw an appeal to separatism, as written in your statement for the Security Services", he was unable to answer. He said that he was not prepared to answer, because he did not remember exactly what he wrote, and that he would be ready to present this information at the next meeting. His statement was the following: "I have personally been watching this man (F. Dimytry), very closely for a long time!" Father Dimytry asked him: "Are you an intelligence officer of the Ukrainian Secret Services?". He replied: "If I were an intelligence officer, investigating this case, you would have been already in prison".

The second signatory, the Ukrainian nationalist Kopolovich, the head of the organization “Svoboda” in Mukacheve City, wasn‘t brilliant either. He said that the Second European Congress of Subcarpathian Ruthenians was about "joining of the Transcarpathian region to Hungary, and that such a decision was approved".

He was amongst a group of 30 men prepared to disrupt the peaceful action of the Ruthenians and stated in the court that he saw a crowd of people, many flags and went with them in the Drama Theatre, where the Ruthenian Congress was held. He said that he took the brochures and went into the hall, where they sang the national anthem. Then he left.

The next morning he wrote a statement and brought all the documents to the SCU. At similar charges and on the testimony of people with rampant imagination and hate for Ruthenian nation, the SCU and prosecutors built their indictment.

By the way, Ukrainian citizen Kopolovich, nephew of the Archbishop of the Russian Orthodox Church Jonathan Kopolovich (deceased), admitted that he had been reading newspapers in Ruthenian, and testified in the Ruthenian language, apparently

not having the knowledge of Ukrainian.
Accused Father Dimytry Sidor, when finished with the questions to him said: "God bless you!". To what he angrily replied: "I do not need your blessing!"
Based on such fake denunciations, nationalist organizations such as "Svoboda" brought up grossly fabricated criminal case number 499 against the Ruthenian nation, in the name of the Ruthenian priest Dimytry Sidor.

It is significant that the next court hearing is scheduled for 12:00, 15th of March,
the day when Galician illegal migrants and the nationalists attempted a coup in the Subcarpathian Ruthenia with the following prosecutions, and set up for the Ruthenians concentration camp "Dumen".

22.12.2009: In Uzhhorod has begun an unprecedented political process over Archpriest Dimitry Sidor, the spiritual leader of the Subcarpathian Rus, Orthodox missionary, builder and rector of the beautiful Christ Cathedral in Uzhgorod.

The Security Service of Ukraine fabricated it. Father Dimitry is tried for "separatism". In fact, Archpriest Dimitry Sidor is tried for Ruthenian (wider - Russian) identity and loyalty to the Russian Orthodox Church.

Father Dimitry is a confessor. He is a missionary, who changed the course of history. When Uniates seized the Cathedral in Uzhgorod, he put in pledge his home and began building a grand Cathedral of Christ, which has now become a symbol of Uzhgorod and Subcarpathian Rus. If it were not for Father Dimitry, Uzhgorod would be a typical Uniate city. However, thanks to him Uzhhorod is one of the spiritual centres of the Russian Orthodox Church. There is every reason to believe that it is the main reason why they are trying to put Father Dimitry behind bars.

We are convinced that those who today staged a trial of an Orthodox priest and educator should themselves be brought to justice. Government of Yushchenko is a criminal regime. An ideology of the followers of Bandera and Mazepa is a criminal ideology, built on the ravings of Nazi collaborators of the OUN-UPA. In the 65th anniversary of the Great Victory "Neo-Banderas", organize trials of the Orthodox priests.

We are asking to sign in support of Father Dimitry. Please re-publish this material where possible.

Just before the trial, Father Dimitry intensely prayed for the repose of his fellow-missionary, Father Daniil Sysoev.

Some priests-missionaries are killed others are tried. God is betrayed by silence!

Here are the charges that prosecutors filed in court against Father Dimitry: http://getsko-p.livejournal.com/50805.html
