Moscow refutes information on student's confession of murder of 37 natives of Caucasus

The investigators deny the nationalist character of the massacres of "Caucasians" in Moscow, allegedly accomplished by two students from the Russian capital.

Presently, the Moscow investigatory bodies are verifying the information that two students arrested earlier on suspicion of killing Karen Abramyan, a native of Armenia, could be involved in a series of similar attacks and murders, the ITAR-TASS reports.

The law enforcement bodies have not confirmed the information that has appeared in mass media stating that Arthur Ryno had ostensibly confessed of nationalist-motivated murder of thirty-seven persons, and a part of his evidences have got confirmed. According to some sources, the arrested young people are indeed checked for their possible involvement in 31 murders and 12 instances of inflicting grave physical injuries, however, so far these data require a more careful check.

Besides, the investigation is inclined to think that the attacks were hooliganism-motivated, since the arrested persons were not members of any nationalist organizations.
