It is known that the amount of the claim to the actor on the protection of honor, dignity and business reputation is 2.5 million rubles. In addition, the Zapashny requires Nikolaev funds for litigation costs amounting to 80 thousand rubles.

“The claim about protection of honor, dignity and business reputation adopted by the Basmanny district court of Moscow. Requirements to actor Valery Nikolaev, who recently became famous for “good deeds”, which were watched by the whole country. He cried, and laughed, and he bristled like a hedgehog. And, of course, said some stupid things and nasty things, which became the subject of the claim”, – said the lawyer Lyudmila Aivar.

“I never communicated closely with Valery Nikolaev, intersect only in the secular parties, – said the “StarHit” Edgard Zapashny. – And then he for no reason begins to talk in one televised interview that in the circus of Zapashny shot up animals, and it stinks. But it is an outright lie. We regularly let behind the scenes journalists, including “StarHit”, which we had not time. Never no complaints. I know that the last time Nikolaev became a frequent guest of the controversial show for different reasons. But in the program he was completely sober and looked good. He can trust people. So my brother filed a lawsuit for libel and statements discrediting our reputation. Soon will hold its first meeting”.

In it, the actor allowed himself to question the reputation of the trainer. “It’s like Zapashny, who feels that there is a smell of alcohol, but something else. He, probably, predators doesn’t feel that he got shot up. And such a stink… the fact that they are poor does not hold the urine. When you go to the circus on Vernadsky, scary,” – said Nikolaev.
