This was reported to TASS by the lawyer of the acquitted Nikolay Viskov.

“Zhdanov is justified. The court did not establish a causal relationship with the consequences, ”said the lawyer.

In June 2018, the Elan-12 walking catamaran and a barge collided in the Volga water area, killing 11 people.

In connection with the incident, the owner of the boat station was detained, allowing the catamaran to enter the Volga.
