As noted, they are currently being interrogated.

It was established that one of the detainees was convicted of fraud and robbery, the second - for robbery and drug trafficking.

“No family ties of any of the persons involved in such heinous crimes can affect the adoption of legal decisions regarding them,” said Svetlana Petrenko, an official representative of the UK.

The investigation was put under control by the chairman of the department, Alexander Bastrykin. Earlier, he instructed to check reports that the young people were allegedly not detained because one of them was the son of a former judge and chairman of the council of deputies.

According to the preliminary version of the investigation, on the night of September 15, men 24 and 29 years old after a quarrel over the phone with their acquaintance came to him and beat him. The victim was hospitalized, and died the next day.
