independent investigation 21.10.2002 (2002)

"Killers by accident" Anyone can witness a crime in Russia, it is considered our civic duty to immediately report the incident and assist justice in every possible way.

However, not everyone is in a hurry to help law enforcement agencies, believing, not without reason, that this is not only very troublesome, but sometimes quite dangerous, since it can turn against oneself.

In the course of this program, we will answer the question of how to avoid becoming a suspect from a witness.

Plot: On July 11, 2000, three Muscovites Andrei Kirillov, Denis Egorov and Sergey Denisov decided to drink beer near the Orekhovo metro station, at about 2 a.m., their acquaintances Zimin and Luzgin approached the guys and said that they had seen a fight near the Orekhovo Hotel.

Witness Luzgin Andrei says that he met A. Kirillov, D. Egorov, S. Denisov on a bench.

Around 3:00 a.m., Egorov, Kirillov and Denisov went home.

They came across a bloody body of a man in the yard.

The guys decided to call the police.

Egorov and Kirillov went home.

Denisov called the police.

A police dog picked up the scent and led them to a bench where S. Denisov and A. Kirillov were sitting.

The young men were detained as suspects in the murder of Vladimir Pinchuk and taken to the police station.

Egorov D. was also detained a little later.

After several hours of talking with investigators, Egorov D. pleaded guilty to the murder and signed the interrogation report.

In addition to the confession of Egorov D., the police also had the testimony of Vladimir Artamonov and Natalia Useynova.
