Young men from Tajikistan have been arrested for two months.
On April 11, the Central District Court of Chelyabinsk ruled to take into custody four citizens of Tajikistan accused of the murder of an 11th grader.
The court decided to place under arrest Ural Regional College student, 20-year-old Shahron Mirov, brothers Zokhir and Tokhir Jalilov, and Najmiddin Imomov for two months.
According to the investigator in court, the accomplices “struck the schoolboy with their hands and feet at least once each, thereby breaking the will of the victim,” and Shahron Mirov delivered a knife blow. Shahron Mirov partially admitted his guilt, confirming that he struck the victim.
The Jalilov brothers and Imomov maintain their innocence and requested to change the measure of restraint to house arrest. Both Jalilov brothers are studying “law enforcement activities” at Ural Regional College.
Najmiddin Imomov is 33 years old and has three children. According to the investigation, all four are relatives.
According to the investigation, “on April 9, during the night, a conflict occurred between two groups of teenagers who are members of a gaming community on one of the social networks. The reason was insults expressed in a common chat. As a result of the conflict, one teenager received fatal stab wounds,” the press release from the law enforcement agency states. “Police officers promptly detained the main suspect. Subsequently, during operational search activities, three more participants in the conflict were detained, including two minors. The author of the insulting messages left in the common chat of the community members has also been identified.”
A criminal case has been initiated against the detainees under Article 105, Part 2, Clause “zh” of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (murder), which provides for punishment in the form of imprisonment for a term of 8 to 20 years, or life imprisonment.
