The tortures are proven

Protection of sisters Khachaturian demands to terminate the criminal case

Lawyers of the Khachaturian sisters accused of killing his father received a decision on the refusal to institute criminal proceedings against Mikhail Khachaturian for non-rehabilitating circumstances-because of his death. Girls-Krestin, Angelina and Maria-independently submitted applications for the initiation of the case due to the tortures and sexual harassment from the father. The very fact of father’s crimes against daughters does not deny the investigation. The lawyers of the girls Alexei Parshin, Yaroslav Pakulin and Alexei Lipzer continue to insist that the actions of their clients were a necessary defense (37th article of the Criminal Code).

In mid -July, the case file against Mikhail Khachaturian was allocated in a separate production. The pre -investigation verification in relation to the deceased took place under three articles of the Criminal Code: torture (Article 117 of the Criminal Code), violent actions of a sexual nature (Article 132 of the Criminal Code) and forcing to sexual actions (Article 133 of the Criminal Code).

Violence-both physical and sexual-from the side of the 57-year-old man to his daughters is recorded by the investigation, but the norms of the Code of Criminal Procedure do not allow the criminal case to initiate posthumously if the relatives of the deceased do not require it. The sister of the murdered Naira Khachaturian and her husband Gennady Musalyan, who are undergoing victims, did not express such a desire.

The protection of girls is glad to refuse to initiate a criminal case: the facts of violence will still be attached to the main process and may become the basis for new petitions to stop the persecution of sisters.

“Now we have the position of the Investigative Committee recorded by the resolution,” says Alexei Lipzer. - This resolution is non -rehabiliting in nature, because by virtue of the Code of Criminal Procedure against the deceased, a criminal case cannot be opened, except if his closest relatives insist on rehabilitation.

While the defense is getting acquainted with the materials of the criminal case. After that, lawyers can supplement the petitions taking into account new data: “If before we could not [the fact of violence by Khachaturian to daughters] use as a document, now we have appeared: if it comes to court, we can refer to it. It is attached to the case file. It was established by the result that Khachaturian is a criminal, a rapist, a sadist. ”

The fact that violence over the girls lasted a long time indicates that the christening, Angelina and Maria were in a state of constant danger. So, in a state of necessary defense.

Khachaturian's relatives considered that the lawyers of the girls could be involved in the murder: supposedly they were familiar with the sisters earlier.

They also filed a civil lawsuit about protecting honor and dignity for 1 million rubles for Aurelia Dunduk, the mother of girls.

They require compensation for moral damage for the fact that on the air of Channel One announced sexual violence by Khachaturian in 1996.

Meanwhile, feminists are trying to coordinate the “sister march” in support of girls. The Moscow City Hall over and over again does not coordinate routes in the city center, offering to transfer the march to the outskirts.
