Two suspects in a Moscow policemen murder case have been detained.
One of the suspects is David Zviadadze, a citizen of Georgia. He
was charged with compliance in the murder of two policemen in the
southeast of Moscow on April 28, as well as with robbery.
A court has issued an arrest warrant for him.
The other suspect is also a citizen of Georgia, Teimuraz Gognadze,
43. He was detained in Georgia. "The question of his extradition is
being decided," the Moscow prosecutor's office said on Wednesday.
Moscow police have initiated a search for five more suspects involved
in the same case. These are Noye Gvenetadze (aka Nukri), 41, with
previous convictions, Nikolai Meladze (aka Niko), 33, with previous
convictions, David Asatiani (aka Asatyani), 39, with previous
convictions, Paliko (aka Parmen), 40, with previous convictions,
and Vakhtang Dzhjavakhadze4, 34. The latter two are from Tbilisi.
The Moscow prosecutor's office said "a decision has been made in
absentia to put them in custody and put them on the international
wanted list."
On April 28, 2006, the residents of one of the flats at 17-1,
Kirovogradskaya Street called police and said they could hear noise
and calls for help from one of the flats on the ground floor in their
house, where Armenians were living. A group of policemen was sent
to the scene. Senior Lieutenant Andrei Ashurkov and Master Sergeant
Sergei Rebrikov entered the flat and came under automatic gunfire.
Ashurkov was killed, Rebrikov was seriously wounded and died later.
Police asked those who may have information about the suspects to
call at 200-94-70, 200-98-35 or 200-85-47. Their photographs are
posted on the Moscow city police's website at www.petrovka38.ru.
