Jurymen find seven skinheads from "Ryno Group" guilty

The jury has found guilty seven members of the skinhead gang headed by Arthur Ryno and Pavel Skachevskiy. Other two figurants in the case were completely acquitted and released right in the court room.

The verdict of jurymen was passed in the evening on Tuesday, December 2, at the Moscow City Court. The jury found guilty seven of the defendants accused of 20 murders and 12 murder attempts, but acquitted two members of the grouping.

Unanimously, without any voting the leader of the gang - Ryno - was found guilty and deserving no indulgence. Nine jurymen voted for the guilt of Skachevskiy, accused of the maximum quantity of episodes - 29, also without any indulgences, in their opinion. Roman Kuzin, Vitaly Nikitin, Ivan Kitaikin, Alexander Anikin and Denis Lavrinenkov were found guilty but deserving indulgence. It means that they cannot be awarded the punishment higher than 2/3 of the terms they deserve, and they cannot be imprisoned for life, the "Gazeta.Ru" reports.

In relation to two more defendants - Svetlana Avakumova and Nikolai Dagaev - the votes of the jurymen split as fifty-fifty, and under the law in this case defendants should be acquitted. On other points the board of jurymen passed the verdict unanimously, as Anna Usachyova, press secretary of the Moscow City Court told the ITAR-TASS.
