A jury earlier this month found 33-year-old Ilya Goryachev guilty of ordering five killings, setting up and running an extremist cell, and illegally possessing firearms. The Moscow City Court said in a statement on Friday, July 24, that the life sentence reflected the "exceptional danger of the defendant for the society." Several activists of Goryachev's group, called The Militant Organization of Russian Nationalists, were sentenced to jail time earlier this year. Goryachev was hiding in Serbia before he was extradited in 2013.
