In the Serhiyevo-Posad city court of the Moscow region, the jury found six associates of the nationalist Maksym Martsinkevich, known by the nickname Tesak, guilty of the murders of migrants committed twenty years ago.
According to the investigation, in 2003, Martsinkevich, Semyon Tokmakov, and Andrey Kail, who adhere to ultra-right views, lured two migrants to a dacha in the Smolensk region, which belonged to the Tesak family, “under the pretext of construction work.” At the dacha, one of the workers was killed with an ax blow, and the second was strangled, after which the bodies of the killed were buried right on the plot.
A little later, according to the investigation, Tokmakov, Kyle and other defendants – Aleksey Gudylin, Alexander Lysenkov, Maksym Khotulev and Pavel Khrulyov – killed and beheaded two more migrants on the territory of an abandoned camp in the Serhiyevo-Posad district. They filmed the crimes and posted them on the Internet, and the severed heads were thrown on the streets of Moscow’s Golyanovo district.
The investigation considers Martsinkevich one of the organizers of the crime. A criminal case is based on his testimony. However, Tesak himself was found dead in the Chelyabinsk pre-trial detention center in the fall of 2020. It is known that he was going to be interrogated on several more murder cases.
According to the FSIN and the prosecutor’s office, Martsinkevich, fearing a life sentence, committed suicide. Those close to Tesak believe that he was killed, and that he gave his testimony under torture and pressure. The same opinion is held by associates of Martsinkevich, who are now on trial. “Mediazon” publication notes that at the investigation they also gave incriminating statements, but during the trial they refused them and now they do not admit guilt.
It is also noted that three jurors were removed from participating in the trial during the trial. Two of them allegedly violated the secrecy of the conference room, discussing the case in the presence of outsiders.
