As follows from the materials of the case, on June 9, two bailiffs, with the involvement of specialized equipment, arrived at Prosvescheniya Street in the Adler district of Sochi to carry out enforcement actions by a court order on the demolition of illegally erected buildings.

The owner of the buildings demanded to leave the territory, and then opened fire on them from a hunting rifle.

As a result, two bailiffs were killed on the spot.

Another person was injured.

After the crime was committed, the owner of the building did not resist and surrendered to the police who arrived at the scene.

Later, his interview was published on the Internet, in which he explained that he had lived in this place all his life.

“I have been living in these houses since I was four.

They just brought it - they didn’t allow the land to be formalized, they said “no”, then the government changed.

Not everything is for sale - I am not for sale.

It's mine.

The land of my parents, the land of my children and mine.

I do not regret what I did.

I tell Andranik - talk to a lawyer.

He says no, I have nothing to talk about.

Well, if they don't want to talk, then the conversation is different, ”said Kochian.

According to him, there are 48 apartments on this territory, but after they were recognized as unauthorized buildings, no one began to settle people.

“I didn't want it that way, of course.

But no one came to talk to the people, no one.

At least they said: 48 apartments, let's put things in order.

We will make a parking lot, a playground.

Not!

Pick up and make shops, stalls.

All of them have little money.

Let their parents cry now. "
