Prosecutors ask for life imprisonment to seven defendants in case of attack on Nalchik
Today, at the Supreme Court (SC) of Kabardino-Balkaria, in the case of the attack on Nalchik committed on October 13, 2005, public prosecutors asked the terms of sentences to the defendants.
The public prosecutors ask to sentence seven defendants Azamat Shokumov, Anzor Mashukov, Murat Bapinaev, Aslan and Ruslan Kuchmenov, Eduard Mironov, and Rasul Kudaev to life imprisonment in a high-security penal colony.
As far as Zalim Ulimbashev, Kazbek Budtuev, and Anzor Ashev are concerned, the public prosecutors ask to sentence them to 5 years and 2 months, 4 years and 6 months and 6 years and 7 months imprisonment, respectively, and propose to exempt them from further punishment.
Let us remind you that at the court session held on September 10, the public prosecutors emphasized that all defendants in the case of the attack on Nalchik were members of a criminal grouping aiming at overthrowing the political system and establishing a Sharia state.
The court has announced a break till September 16. On that day, the defence will deliver speech at the debates.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that the trial of the attack on Nalchik was started in 2008. The debates on the trial were started on 19 August 2013.
