“Yes, it really is, I turned to the TFR and the Prosecutor General's Office with an appeal. Because of the work on this case, I receive threats, colossal pressure is exerted on me, ”said the lawyer to RIA Novosti.

According to him, “some persons are planning to turn to law enforcement agencies” with statements about bringing him to criminal responsibility.

"This is being done so that I would give up the case," Pashayev said.

On August 21, it became known that Efremov refused the services of Pashayev, who represented his interests in court.

On August 24, Pashayev announced that the actor had again entered into an agreement with him.

It was also reported that during the meeting, Efremov said that he was "90% sure" that he was sitting in the passenger seat of his car at the time of the fatal accident in the center of Moscow.
