The Elektrostal City Court of the Moscow Region sentenced Zafar Razokov and Ilya Taigunshoev to three and a half years in prison in the case of assault and scalping of a young man. This was reported by the press service of the courts of the Moscow region.
The men were found guilty of hooliganism (Part 2 of Article 213 of the Criminal Code) and causing harm to health of moderate severity (points “d”, “e” and “h” of Part 2 of Article 112 of the Criminal Code). They must also pay the victim 750 thousand rubles in compensation.
In July, Razokov and Taigunshoev attacked 19-year-old Elektrostal resident Yuri Markov. According to the victim, he approached “two people of non-Russian appearance” and asked them for a cigarette. They didn't like his green mohawk.
“At the end of this conversation they began to cut off my hair along with part of my scalp. Then they threatened a little,” Markov told the authors of the Mash telegram channel.
Razokov and Taigunshoev were detained and arrested a few days after the attack. During the first court hearing on the merits of the case, as TASS reported , the men admitted their guilt. They explained their actions by saying they were drunk.
