ArmInfo. The opinion that the Russian authorities intentionally
provoke xenophobic murders is wrong, Speaker of the Armenian Parliament
Tigran Torosyan told ArmInfo commenting on the acquittal verdict made
by Moscow Regional Court in the case of Armneian Artur Sardaryan's
murder for nationality.
He said the lawyer of 19-year-old Sardaryan's family Simon Tsaturyan
pledges to appeal against the verdict. 'Not only Armenians are murdered
in Russia.
However, one can not close eyes on the fact that murders and pressure
on the basis of national intolerance has become so large-scale. We
understant, indeed, that Russia like any other country can punish
the guilty only through judicial instances, However, if the guilt
is not proved, there are no guilty. As a result., the real murderers
are free. Nevertheless, there is no reason to doubt that the Russian
authorities combact xenophobia,' Tigran Torosyan said.
