In the forensic center of the Tver region, the examinations of the Volkswagen car of the journalist Gennady Bachinsky, who died in the accident, told Interfax on Friday a source in the regional Department of Internal Affairs. The version of the "external impact" on the Bachinsky car is confirmed, the source said. Earlier, that in the accident was the third participant - a truck hiding from the scene of an accident - said Bachinsky friend Sergey Stillavin. Now this version has received a weighty confirmation.
"According to preliminary data, it can be assumed that the departure of Gennady Bachinsky in the oncoming lane was provoked by a certain external influence. Perhaps Bachinsky was innocent in an accident," the agency’s interlocutor said.
According to him, such a conclusion can be drawn, based on the results of a traceological examination, which showed that the blow of two Volkswagen cars was not forehead, but at an angle and came into the front left of the Bachinsky car. “One of the witnesses of the accident claims that when the Bachinsky car was rebuilt into its row, the car began to throw from side to side. The witness says that Volkswagen carried it on the oncoming car sideways. And this could happen, in his opinion, or because of the Bachinsky car,” the Department of Internal Affairs explained.
However, according to the interlocutor of the agency, it was precisely established by the automotive technique that the Bachinsky car was working out before the accident: the engine, the brake system, and all other details of the car at the time of the accident were in perfect order. “There is a version that the cause of the accident is broken. But this examination is not yet ready. It is the longest of all - it can take for about a month. In addition, to draw the final conclusions, it is necessary to find the driver of the truck that, according to eyewitnesses, Bachinsky overtook. Why did he disappear from the scene of the accident? Perhaps this driver has the most directly related to the ATC,” the source in the Internal Affairs Directorate said.
Recall that the accident, which took the lives of journalist Gennady Bachinsky and the mother of two children of Yulia Merkulova, occurred on January 12. Gennady died on the spot. Julia died in the hospital ten days later. Until now, the investigation adhered to the following version: making overtaking ahead of the truck, Gennady drove into the oncoming lane. But, not having time to rebuild in his row in front of the truck, he collided in his forehead with the Volkswagen Transporter minibus, walking in the oncoming lane.
Stillavin: the rear bumper of the Bachinsky car crumpled
From the very beginning, a friend and co -host of Gennady Bachinsky, from the very beginning, indicated that he should look for a truck: he has a fragment of the rear bumper of the Bachinsky car, which shows traces of red paint. In a collision with WV Transporter, such traces could not remain, Stylevin is sure: "Well, it could not expand him like that. So, there is also a third participant in the accident who disappeared from the scene of the accident."
In his blog, Stillavin writes: “Firstly, the driver of the“ conveyor ”Andrei testifies that Gene finished overtaking and got into his row with all the cars that overtook the truck. He got into his row-he completed the overtaking. And most importantly: in the photographs on the network, and on the fragment of the Genkin Golf bumper, which is at my disposal, any little man is noticeable The trace of the right back of the car on the right back of the car on the right back of the rear bumper. What if the car on a slippery road is hit, like a ball, in the rear right side, it will fly forward and left.
