The 12-year-old girl, who died in Khibin, provoked an avalanche. This was told at a press conference by the head of the department of particularly important cases of the Murmansk Department of the Investigative Department Nikita Kiselev, his words are given by Interfax.
According to Kiselev, the girl began arbitrary skiing on a ski slope. "This provoked a breakdown of the snow cover, the collapse of the snow massif and subsequent death under the rubble," Kiselev said.
According to investigators, the arrested head of the children's tourist group from St. Petersburg made gross violations of security requirements and overshadowed the child who decided to slide off the slope.
The investigation also established that the route of the group from the organization "Scythian" ran through the flat terrain, so the children did not have anti -vague equipment with them. According to investigators, the leader of the group decided to cut the path and led the children to the top of the slope of the spur of Mount Mannepakhk. According to Kiselev, the arrested does not admit guilt and says that he did not violate safety requirements.
