Pavlova: in Volgograd Region court drags out consideration of Gipsies' murder

The Volgograd Regional Court is permanently postponing the consideration of the criminal case on the murder of two persons and inflicting heavy bodily injuries to others during a skinheads' attack on April 14, 2006, on the Gipsy camp, located in those days in the vicinity of the city of Volzhskiy, Volgograd Region.

"We're sick and tired of this red tape. Court sessions are postponed all the time, but we are not informed about the changes," Tatiana Pavlova who is representing victims Marshenkovs, advocate of the Volzhsk City Bar, told in her conversation with the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.

Thus, according to Ms Pavlova, the next session of the court had been appointed on March 12; however, because of the illness of the defendants' advocate the session was postponed and appointed for the end of April. No exact date was ever announced.

"But the date of April 13 is approaching, and according to the law one of the defendants should be released. We have an impression that the procrastination of the proceedings has the aim to set him free," Tatiana Pavlova assumes.

Tatiana told that during the court sessions the defendants and their advocates "behaved defiantly: they laughed, joked and made sarcastic remarks in relation to the victims." "Moreover, Judge Alexander Valentinovich Guschin, such a humorist, was joking all the time. The courtroom was full of laughter, when Gypsies spoke. People were goof on their bad Russian," the lawyer has noted.
