“The court left the previous preventive measure for Efremov in the form of house arrest for a period until January 22, 2021. We consider this decision to be quite adequate. Also today, a petition was considered to recognize Irina Stekhova, the common-law wife of the deceased Sergei Zakharov, a victim in this case, it was rejected by the court. In general, so far, everything is going roughly as we expected, ”TASS quotes the lawyer of the family of Sergei Zakharov, who died in an accident, Alexander Dobrovinsky.
