PanARMENIAN.Net - The Moscow Municipal Court sentenced 5 young men, who brutally killed an Armenian in one of the local suburban trains, to 9-14 years of imprisonment. As reported by Moskovskiy Komsomolets Russian newspaper, a band of young men aged 17-22 ranked themselves as members of neo-Nazi organization of skinheads and had the aim "to clear" the local electric trains of Caucasians. On December 12, 2003, on entering Petushki-Mocsow suburban train, the murderers saw a man with "Caucasian appearance" and knocking him off his feet trampled on him. The maimed man died after suffering in the aid station for 2 hours. At those days a 35-year-old Azeri was killed in the same way.
