“The court will decide on the case on December 26 at 15:00,” RIA Novosti quoted the lawyer as saying.

Earlier it was reported that the state prosecution requests up to nine years in prison for the accused.

On November 2, 2018, three ex-employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs were detained on suspicion of raping a 23-year-old interrogating girl. Subsequently, they were released under house arrest.

The trial has been going on since July 29. The defendants do not admit their guilt.
