The Moscow City Court jury has issued a guilty verdict in the trial
over the explosion at the Cherkizovo market in summer 2006.
The defendants were found guilty by the jury, spokeswoman for the
Moscow City Court Anna Usachyova told Interfax.
The decision making process took three days. The jury retired to
their room on Monday, April 28, however it was not until Wednesday
that they made their final decision. The jury faced 270 questions.
"The jurors made a decision which led to a guilty verdict against
all the defendants. Defendants in the trial over the Cherkizovo
market explosion - Korolyov, Klimuk, Kostarev and Zukovtsev - were
found guilty of committing a terror attack, killing 14 people and
the attempted killing of 61 people," Usachyova said.
When issuing their verdict against these individuals, the jurors said
that they "do not deserve leniency," she said.
Also, the jurors issued a guilty verdict against defendant Nikita
Senyukov who was charged with the murder of the Armenian student at
the Pushkinskaya metro station.
The debates on the jury's verdict, during which the prosecutor will ask
to determine sentences for the defendants, are scheduled for May 12.
