The 5th Garrison Military Court (Yerevan) during a visiting meeting at the 102nd Russian military base in Gyumri sentenced the 19-year-old Soldier soldier Valery Permyakov, who cut out a local family of seven people, by 10 years of strict regime. This was reported by RAPSI.
The court appointed the soldier exactly the punishment that the prosecutor, an employee of the military prosecutor's office of the Southern Military District Vladimir Andrusenko, demanded .
Permyakov was found guilty under Articles 338 (desertion with weapons), 226 (theft of weapons and ammunition) and 222 Criminal Code (illegal circulation of weapons and ammunition). Murder materials were allocated to separate production and transferred to the Armenian SK . The Armenian court will judge this crime of the soldier.
Permyakov’s process was held in one meeting. The defendant fully pleaded guilty and declared repentance. At the same time, he refused to testify, noticing only that he deserted to flee to Turkey, and from there return to Russia. As follows from the testimony of Permyakov, given to the investigation, in the house of local residents he was looking for money and jewelry. At the same time, the accused claimed that he was not going to kill the owners, but only wanted to scare them.
The forensic examinationrecognized the soldier to be sane .
On the night of January 12, Permyakov, having left the location of the 102nd base, came to the house of the Avetisyan family not familiar to him and shot five adults from 24 to 55 years old from the Kalashnikov assault rifle, and two children - two -year -old Asmik and half -year -old Seryozha - tried to cut the bayonet -knife. All victims died on the spot, except for a half -year -old baby. He was taken to the hospital and operated on. On January 19, Seryozha died in the hospital.
On the night of January 13, Russian border guards detained Permyakov while trying to cross the Armenian-Turkish border. The Armenian side, including under the pressure of mass protests of local residents , demanded the issuance of Permyakov and the trial of it according to its own laws. Russia refused to give the suspect, referring to its constitution.
Nevertheless, on June 26, after the start of protests in Armenia against raising electricity tariffs, the country's president Serzh Sargsyan met with the Minister of Transport of Russia, co-chairman of the Armenian-Russian intergovernmental commission, Maxim Sokolov, and agreed that the murder made by Permyakov will be transferred to the Armenian side .
