"The defense, including myself, asked Tatyana Nikolaevna to appeal to the investigation with an official petition for the transfer of girls under house arrest. We hope for her speedy reaction and help in mitigating our clients' preventive measures, "Zhilov said.

According to lawyers, in case of transfer of sisters under house arrest they will be accommodated in separate apartments where lawyers, psychologists and school teachers can visit them. The younger sisters - Angelina and Maria - missed almost the entire school year, and they need to make up for the program while there is an opportunity.

According to the lawyer, Khachaturian's sisters are in quarantine in SIZO No.6. To the conditions of their detention, the defenders have no complaints.

Moskalkova previously suggested that Khachaturian be assigned home arrest to his sisters.

The Russian president's authorized representative for the rights of the child, Anna Kuznetsova, announced the need to provide psychological assistance to sisters.
