On November, 5, 2010, 12 killed people including four children were found in a farmer’s housing estate in Kushevskaya. Several people were detained in process of investigation of the criminal case of mass murder. Sergey Tsapok is suspected of organizing this crime, however, he does not acknowledge himself guilty.
During today’s session Tsapok’s attorney Igor Skripka challenged Chief justice explaining it by his prejudiced attitude towards the defense.
The sufferers’ representatives and state prosecutor objected against Skripka’s statement because they saw no reasons for challenge to the judge. Judge Kulkov dismissed the motion of challenge.
