The Berlin police have no doubt that on April 10 in the river near the Muledamm bridge in Berlin, the body of the Russian citizen Anna Mikhalchuk, which disappeared on March 21, was indeed discovered. This was reported by RIA Novosti with reference to the leading case of the investigator of the land criminal police.
"DNA analysis confirmed that the drowned woman is definitely 52 -year -old Anna Mikhalchuk," the agency’s interlocutor said. Earlier, the police were focused only on the testimony of the wife of the deceased, who identified the body by the engagement ring.
The investigation has practically no doubt that Mikhalchuk voluntarily broke up with life. “No signs of violence on the body were found, and the autopsy showed that the woman was choked in the river,” the police officer explained.
Mikhalchuk did not leave a farewell note, nevertheless, the police are inclined to the purely household version of what happened. “In our practice, unlike cinema, farewell notes are rather a rarity, so we see nothing strange in the absence of it in this case,” the investigator explained.
Meanwhile, the German media have already presented to their audience Anna Mikhalchuk as a Kremlin critic and associated her disappearance with a political background. “There are no objective grounds for such a version. We also excluded the murder or accident based on the collected materials and evidence,” the investigator emphasized.
At the same time, in which Mikhalchuk was at the time of suicide and why she decided to do so, the police have not yet found out. “There is still no conclusion of a chemical toxicological examination, it always lasts a little longer,” the agency’s interlocutor said. According to him, the case was referred to the prosecutor’s office, which should make the final conclusion based on the results of the investigation.
Anna Mikhalchuk has been in Germany since November 2007 with her husband, philosophy professor Mikhail Ryklin, invited to give lectures at the University of Humboldt. A married couple lived in a prestigious area of Charlottenburg in a house located by Lake Litz Conduct. Police divers first of all searched the lake and surroundings, but did not find any traces of the missing woman.
Russian citizen Anna Alexandrovna Mikhalchuk, known under the literary pseudonym Anna Alchuk, was born on May 28, 1955 on Sakhalin. She graduated from the History Department of Moscow State University. Known as a literary and artistic critic (co -owner of the magazine "Paradigm"), was engaged in visual poetry and performance. In 2003, she was accused of inciting a religious rash for participating in the organization of the exhibition “Caution, Religion!”, But was justified by the court for the lack of corpus delicti.
Two colleagues Mikhalchuk were then sentenced to cash fines.
