and Krasnodar Governor Tkachyov protects his accomplices
Sergei Tsepovyaz fined 150,000 rubles for concealing the Kuschyovskaya mass murder Krasnodar, May 31. INTERFAX.RU — The Kuschyovsky District Court of Krasnodar Territory on Thursday ruled to fine Sergei Tsepovyaz, who was charged with concealing the murder of 12 people in a farmer’s home. "The court ruled to impose a fine of 150,000 rubles on Sergei Tsepovyaz," court spokeswoman Oksana Bashkirtseva told Interfax-South. ////////////////// 150,000 rubles. In the view of the Party of Crooks and Thieves (a derogatory nickname for Russia’s ruling party), taking part in a rally is twice as dangerous. BThose killed were the 51-year-old owner of the house, Server Ametov, his 48-year-old wife Galina, his 19-year-old daughter-in-law Yelena and her one-year-old daughter Amira; guests Vladimir Mironenko, his wife Marina, their daughters Alyona and Irina, and Marina’s parents Viktor and Lidiya Ignatenko. In addition, the criminals murdered Ametov’s neighbors, who had dropped by to visit — 36-year-old Natalya Kasyanova and her 14-year-old son Pavel. ... We knew that Vladimir Mironenko, the director of an agricultural company from Rostov, would be coming to visit Server Ametov with his family, so we waited until everyone had had a drink and relaxed. We watched them through binoculars from a car parked on the neighboring lot. We figured Ametov and Mironenko would be playing billiards in the bathhouse. So that’s where I went with Bykov and Alexeyev. Armed, of course, with guns and knives. The others headed for the room where the women and children were sitting. When Ametov saw us, he tried to fight back with a cue stick. I knocked him to the floor, started strangling him, and stabbed him several times. Meanwhile, Andryukha and Bespredel were killing Vladimir Mironenko. The rest of the guys were ransacking the rooms in the house and murdering the guests.
Mironenko’s two daughters — aged five and two — and Lena, the wife of Server Ametov’s son, were shoved into the bathroom so the neighbors would not hear their screams. The farmer was getting in the way of my business and undermining my authority. So I wanted him to suffer himself and to see his loved ones suffer. We dragged him into the living room — he was still breathing — and killed the others before his eyes. Then we piled the bodies together, and on top of the heap of corpses we placed nine-month-old Amira, Ametov’s granddaughter. She was alive, crying. The bodies were doused with gasoline and set on fire. We looked at our watches and were surprised — we pulled it all off in about ten minutes. As they were leaving the house, the gang noticed a boy running away — 14-year-old Pasha Kasyanov.
His mother, the Ametovs’ neighbor, was visiting them, and the teenager decided to hurry her along — it was getting late. Bykov shot the boy in the back and dragged him into the house. The killers then went off to the local Malinki café as if nothing had happened. http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9C%D0%B0%D1%81%D1%81%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%BE%D0%B5_%D1%83%D0%B1%D0%B8%D0%B9%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B2%D0%BE_%D0%B2_%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B0%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%86%D0%B5_%D0%9A%D1%83%D1%89%D1%91%D0%B2%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B9 photos from here Tsepovyaz received a far lighter punishment than people get simply for filming the illegally erected fence around Governor Alexander Tkachyov’s country residence. Update: November 19, 2010 GGovernor Tkachyov: if the killers of 12 people buy their way out of punishment, I will resign. We wait, but something suggests that Tkachyov will stay right where he is, and Tsepovyaz will be appointed presidential envoy to one of the federal districts.
