Schoolboy confesses of murdering dozens of Caucasian natives

A scandalous case about crimes committed on motives of national hatred is investigated by the Public Prosecutor's Office of the South-West District of Moscow: a young skinhead has confessed of murdering 37 persons, including Caucasian natives. According to the "Vremya Novostej" (Time of News), Arthur Ryno, 18, pupil of the Kisselyov School of Icon Painting, detained in mid-April for murdering an Armenian native, has unexpectedly confessed to investigators of committing brutal assassinations, together with his friend Pavel Skachevskiy, 18, a student of the Russian State University of Physical Culture, who was also detained, of several dozens of persons, the NEWSru.com web site reports.

The teenager was telling the investigators how he "rendered executions" and "cleared up the city" in such details that at first militia did not believe him. They decided that he was self-slandering; however, the conducted checks have already confirmed some of his evidences, the "Vremya Novostej" reports.

Pavel Skachevskiy, with whom according to Ryno they have jointly committed about 20 murders, denies his guilt.

It is remarkable that the Amnesty International human rights organization that published last week its report on situation with human rights in different countries of the world marked xenophobia as one of the basic Russia's problems, which resulted in decline of Russian indicators. The report has separately mentioned excessively lenient verdicts, in the opinion of human rights defenders, passed by Russian courts on nationalism-motivated murders cases.
