The alleged perpetrator of the terrible car accident in Moscow,
in which 18 people were killed on July 13, did not testify. The
46-year-old driver of the KamAZ truck, a native from Armenia, who
was hospitalized in serious condition at the Botkin Hospital, woke
from an artificial coma.
The driver was unable to testify, "possibly because of the poor state
of health," the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in
Moscow told Interfax. However, this does not prevent investigation
from asking the court to arrest the suspect.
The detainee was reportedly identified as Hrachya Harutyunyan, Life
News said. According to the newspaper, when questioned for the first
time at hospital, he could not even pronounce his own name.
Doctors say that the man's condition is not critical. According to the
head of the Emergency Medicine Department of Moscow, Sergei Gumenev,
the driver has a "neurotic reaction to a stressful situation, scrapes
and bruises." When asked whether the patient's condition allows him
to communicate with investigators, Gumenev replied: "It surely does."
The KamAZ truck loaded with gravel, driven by Hrachya Harutyunyan,
rammed into passenger bus 1033 on July 13 at about 13:00 near the
town of Podolsk. The truck was pulling out from a side road; the
impact was so strong that the bus was ripped into two. As a result
of the accident, 18 people were killed and more than 30 people were
hospitalized.
According to investigators, the KamAZ driver did not give way to
the bus.
A day of mourning was declared in Moscow on July 15.
The procedure of identification of the victims was conducted on
Sunday. All 18 victims of the tragedy were identified. Most of the
victims are residents of the Moscow region. There is a Ukrainian
citizen among the victims, officials said.
The relatives of the victims were officially recognized as victims
in a criminal case and were entitled to compensation.
