Mass school stabbing in Perm: the primary issue is to identify those involved

Today, the primary issue is to identify all those involved in the conflict, stated Timur Khutov, Head of Criminal Law Practice, BMS Law Firm.

«For instance, the age of the accused will matter. If they have not reached the age of 14, they will be placed in specialized institutions, not criminally prosecuted. Sanity of the participanst of the events is also at issue. O far, a case on attempt at murder has been initiated, but it is likely that other articles will be added as well.

For example, if the guilty ones were fighting, while others were injured trying to break them up, then there are no grounds for talking about a murder attempt in relation to them”, the expert noted.
