New round

Alexander Koptsev, who broke into the synagogue on Bolshaya Bronnaya, was sentenced to 13 years back in March. Today the court verdict was overturned. It would seem that Koptsev, who tried to kill several people simply for their faith and nationality, was imprisoned, and good. But no, everyone is dissatisfied with the verdict: the defense considers it too harsh, since no one was seriously injured, and the victims are too lenient, since the article “inciting national hatred” was not included in the verdict. In addition, the defense will demand a jury trial.
