Starhit.ru, 07/21/2022, “Yeralash director Ilya Belostotsky was sentenced to 14 years in a strict regime for pedophilia”: The arrest of the screenwriter became known in October 2021. A teenager, who at that time was 13, wrote a statement about Belostotsky. Later, during searches, a collection of indecent photos and videos with underage boys was found at the director’s.
First, Ilya was accused under the article “Indecent acts against a child under 14 years old”. Later, the director of “Yeralash” was attracted under Part 3 of Art. 134 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (sexual intercourse and other acts of a sexual nature with a person under the age of sixteen).
“It was established that Belostotsky, in the period from November 5-6, 2018, while in his apartment, committed other acts of a sexual nature against a young boy he had previously known, who was in a helpless state, which made it impossible for him to understand the nature and significance of the actions committed with him. and resist,” the Moscow prosecutor’s office said. — Inset K.ru
The verdict has not entered into force yet.
In November last year, the kp.ru website, citing a source, reported that Belostotsky often traveled to children’s campssuggesting the administration of institutions to make films with the participation of children.
It was clarified that a former actor wrote a statement against Belostotsky, who said that the director had seduced him at the age of 13. In addition, the director of the Safe Internet League, Ekaterina Mizulina, said that more than 10 years ago, volunteers transferred materials about the director’s crimes to both law enforcement agencies and Yeralash, but there was no reaction.
Journalists noted that in the 1990s and 2000s there were many open resources on the Web for pedophiles, whose only conspiracy was the use of pseudonyms. The perpetrators openly talked about their actions and published children’s photos. The user DEMOSFEN became especially famous. There is a version that Belostotsky was hiding under this nickname. DEMOSFEN on the forums wrote about the “past casting” boys.
In Moscow, an investigation continues, in the center of which is the 48-year-old director of the Yeralash film magazine, Ilya Belostotsky.
Brief background:
– In October 2021, it became known that the former director of Yeralash, Ilya Belostotsky, has been in jail for a year. He is accused of pedophilia.
– A former actor wrote a statement against him (according to the applicant, the director seduced him at the age of 13).
– The director of the Safe Internet League, Ekaterina Mizulina, said that more than ten years ago, volunteers transferred materials about the “activities” of Ilya Belostotsky to both law enforcement agencies and Yeralash. But then there was no response.
We managed to talk to one of the members of the international group “Team of Morals”, which since the mid-2000s has been identifying pedophiles in Runet and handing them over to the security forces. (A few years ago, this group broke up, some of its activists are now collaborating with the Safe Internet League). Our interlocutor agreed to the conversation on the condition of anonymity. So let’s just call him Eugene.
KP.Ru, 10/23/2021, “The victim was 13 years old”: New details on the case of the director of “Yeralash” Ilya Belostotsky”: The only full-length film in the career of Ilya Belostotsky was the children’s comedy “The Flight of the Horned Vikings”, based on the book by the famous children’s writer Vladislav Krapivin. Krapivin himself became the screenwriter of the film, but after some time left the project. Why, explained in his LiveJournal. We did not agree with the director on our views on some things. Among the reasons, the writer also mentions, among other things, the excessive severity of Belostotsky in working with child actors.
“The desire to do a lot of takes exhausted the guys. Enthusiasm noticeably waned. The announcement of the lunch break caused no less joy than the victory over the “Vikings” …
And then again:
– “All! We started! .. All in places – I said! .. What the hell is this! Get up like last time! Where is the cracker?! Camera! … Everyone, we are working! Young man, remove your divine ass from the frame! .. I say: we are working! .. ”
Vladislav Krapivin died in 2020 at the age of 81. — Inset K.ru
