Tesak's associates were found guilty of the murders of migrants

In the Sergiev Posad City Court of the Moscow Region, the jury found guilty of murders of migrants committed twenty years ago, six associates of the nationalist Maxim Martsinkevich, known for the nickname Tesac.

According to investigators, in 2003, adhering to the ultra -right views of Martsinkevich, Semyon Tokmakov and Andrei Kayl "under the pretext of construction work" lured two migrants to the cottage in the Smolensk region, which belonged to the Tesak family. At the dacha, one of the workers was killed by an ax, and the second was strangled, after which the bodies of the dead were buried right on the site.

A little later, according to the investigation, Tokmakov, Kayl and other defendants - Alexey Gudilin, Alexander Lysenkov, Maxim Khotulev and Pavel Khrulev - killed and beheaded two more migrants in the territory of an abandoned camp site in the Sergiev Posad district. They shot crimes on the video and laid it on the Internet, and the cut heads were thrown into the streets of the Moscow district of Golyanovo.

Martsinkevich considers the investigation one of the organizers of crimes. It is on his testimony that a criminal case is built. However, Tesak himself was found dead in the Chelyabinsk pre -trial detention center in the fall of 2020. It is known that he was going to interrogate him in several more cases of murders.

According to the FSIN and the prosecutor's office, Martsinkevich, fearing a life sentence, committed suicide. Close by Tesak believe that he was killed, and he gave his testimony under torture and pressure. The associates of Martsinkevich, who are now in the bench of the defendants, are holding the same opinion. The Mediazona publication notes that at the investigation they also gave confession, but during the trial they abandoned them and now they are not plead guilty.

It is also noted that during the consideration of the process from participation in it, three jury were removed. Two of them allegedly violated the secret of the deliberative room, discussing the case in the presence of outsiders.
