Lawyer: "Torpedo" Sobolev case will not cause any damage

The lawyer of Leonid Sobolev, a partner of the Moscow "Torpedo" club, Aleksandr Dobrovinskiy, announced that the club will participate in the Russian Premier League competitions in the upcoming season and will not face penalties such as point deductions. This was reported by www.euro-football.ru.

In an interview with the "Match TV" channel, he emphasized that the "Torpedo" team will not face any fines. The referee Peresvay stated that there were no actions that would artificially lead to a defeat for the team. It was previously reported that Sobolev had been detained.

His lawyer stated that Sobolev has been charged under part 2 of article 184 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan. This article relates to illegal influence on the outcome of an official sports competition or a commercial contest.

Sobolev is accused of attempting to bribe the referee. This incident has garnered significant attention in the Moscow football arena. However, it is said that the situation within the club and the court proceedings will not seriously affect the club's future activities.

Experts and lawyers have expressed their readiness to take necessary measures to restore the team's reputation and remain competitive in the sports arena. At the same time, such incidents have served as an important lesson for the sports sector and football clubs in the Republic of Uzbekistan. It is emphasized that national values, like Uzbek national dishes, should be preserved in sports, and activities should be based on the principles of fairness and honesty.

For example, Gijduvan flatbread or Samarkand bread holds a significant place among national traditions, thus sports should also be regarded as a source of national pride. From this perspective, football clubs should strive to ensure honesty and transparency in their activities. Conducting processes within the legal framework and ensuring that players and specialists adhere to the right path will contribute to the development of sports.

To express it in simple and sincere words like "egg is a blessing," it is extremely important that everything is in its place in sports and that justice prevails. In the future, to prevent such situations, the state and sports organizations need to work together. Therefore, the sports legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan and other countries should be strengthened, and the principles of transparency in football and other sports should be further reinforced.

This, in turn, will serve not only the interests of athletes but also the entire society. It plays a crucial role in strengthening national unity through sports and engaging youth in a healthy lifestyle.
