SKINHEAD SCOUNDRELS TAKE ADVANTAGE OF BEING UNPUNISHABLE

Nothing Changes for Good, While Number of Victims Grows
The April 22 murder of 17 years old Armenian student Vigen Abrahamiants
in Moscow testifies to the danger of the growing nationalistic movement
in Russia. The law enforcement bodies stated in the beginning that
Abrahamianst was killed for chasing a young girl. But, according to
the majority of the Russian mass media sources, this cause doesn't
correspond to truth. The details of the case showed that the very
skinheads chased Vigen Abrahamiants and his friend. Denis Kulagin
is currently accused of the murder. In order to prove his guilt, the
policemen put forward the abovementioned cause. Though many witnesses
and Kulagin himself state quite different things about the case.
Besides, the April 22 record of the video surveillance at the
underground station where the murder took place has disappeared. This
factor makes the impression that the law enforcement bodies try
to conceal the real facts. Moreover, a teenager is accused of
Abrahamiants' murder, while the young man was killed with a stab of
knife of a professional. Simon Tsaturian, lawyer of Abrahamiants'
family, added that the murdered not only stabbed Vigen, but also two
other people.
It's noteworthy that the testimonies of the witnesses about the
attack of the skinheads given in the beginning, after 12 hours were
replaced with others that state about the quarrel for a girl. Most
likely, the statements of the Moscow Armenians, RA Embassy to Russia
and the Armenian's Union of Russia condemning the murder case had
certain influence and the testimonies of the same witnesses again
"stated about the skinheads."
The failed attempt of the law enforcement bodies to represent the
murder as a result of a quarrel for a girl testifies to the large-scale
activities of the skinheads. Quite many cases of attacking foreigners
in Russia were registered in the four months of 2006.
Over 10 people were killed as a result of nationalistic attacks from
the beginning of the year.
"Russia for the Russians" slogan of the Fascists doesn't seem to
bother the law enforcement bodies.
Though the Fascists act openly, in public, the Russian law enforcement
bodies can't or do not want to reveal the criminals and stop the
activities of the skinheads.
The skinheads mainly act in big cities, particularly, in
St. Petersburg, Moscow, Voronezh, Cheboksary, Petrozavodsk, Tolyaty
and in other big cities of Russia.
