Skinhead is not a killer; skinhead is a patriot, isn't he?

By March 2007, 539 cases of similar attacks have been registered, among which 54 with deadly outcomes.

The circuit court of Moscow has justified Roman Polusnyak; the murderer of the 19 year-old Arthur Sardaryan. 10 out of 12 members of the jury found the murderer not guilty, in spite of the evidence brought by two witnesses, who identified the murderer. Arthur Sardaryan was killed on May 25, 2006 on train near the Klyazma station. Two skinheads attacked Arthur from his back and shouting "Viva Russia" struck him 6 blows on his thorax.
PanARMENIAN.Net - The decision of the circuit court of Moscow speaks for the policy carried out against the "foreigners", which gives more and more bases for similar crimes to be committed not only in large cities, but in smaller and remote places too. It should be mentioned that the Russian Nation has always been very conservative towards the "others". And they have never liked them, but recently the number of the xenophobes and the nationalists in Russia has increased greatly, and most of those suffering from xenophobia are young people. The murders are committed by young people, who unfortunately do not regret for the committed, and vise versa, even may boast about it. For instance the 18 year-old Arthur Rino together with his friend 18 year-old Pavel Skachevski killed dozens of people. The teenager told in details how he killed and "cleaned up the city" from the foreigners and said that at first no one believed his words in the police station, but later on some of his evidences proved to be truthful. If the proves of all the other crimes are found as well, this case will undoubtedly give rise to a storm in the society as in this case the question is not in a single murder of a representative of a national minority, but of a series of murders. Since August 2006 Rino killed 37 people, 20 of which he did together with his friend Skachevski.

By March 2007, 539 cases of similar attacks have been registered, among which 54 with deadly outcomes. These crimes do not include the crimes committed against the homeless, even if the skinhead attacks are officially given publicity to by the representatives of the law enforcement officers. The victims of the mass fights aren't included here either, as it's not possible to fix their exact number.

The violations of the organized skinhead groupings start to carry a more demonstrative character, which is expressed in different ways. Before it was basically expressed through recognizing the responsibility for violent activities, but now the organized attacks become more common, especially those dedicated to some certain event (excluding the traditional "celebration" of the skinheads dedicated to Hitler's birthday, April 20, which was fixed long ago). This is particularly typical of St. Petersburg, where a rather big and well-organized skinhead grouping is sheltered, and the attack on the 9 year-old Lillian Sisocco, which was made right after the trial on the murder of another 9 year-old girl was over speak for the above mentioned. Yet this tendency is gradually moving to some other cities and firstly to Moscow. The attackers may show they are not afraid to be caught so many murders are committed at daytime in crowded places just like the case with Vigen Abramyants, who was killed on the platform of the metro station "Pushkinskaya" on April 22, 2006. Crimes committed on racial grounds become more common. The case with Alexander Koptsev, who organized a slaughter on January 11, 2006 in a synagogue in Moscow in the result of which 9 people were injured, is not the only one.

According to the official statistics of 2005, 50% of Russians are for setting limits on the number of the people of Caucasian origins. 46% of Russians think that they live in poorer condition than the representatives of other nationalities. 37% agreed with the idea, that "in Russia many troubles are caused by the representatives of others nationalities mainly".
