Lawyer Papenov: The Khachaturian sisters prepared in advance for the murder of their father

Moscow, 4 August. Lawyers for the injured party in the case of the Khachaturian sisters insist, that the murder of Mikhail Khachaturyan cannot be qualified as an excess of self-defense. Reporter reports this Federal News Agency.

On Tuesday, 4 August, they stated at the press conference, that Christening, Angelina and Maria Khachaturyan killed their father by prior conspiracy. Also in their speeches, lawyers emphasized, that they doubt the correctness of the conclusions of the forensic psychiatric examination about the sanity of one of the accused - the younger sister Maria (underage at the time).

“In some ways this is a flawed murder trial.. We are talking about medical measures. We dispute the qualifications of the crime and the mental state of the sister. The victims' side insists, that this is a murder by prior conspiracy within an organized group", - noted one of the lawyers Alexey Papenov.

Representatives of the victims - they are recognized as relatives of Mikhail Khachaturyan - also stated, that they support the request of the defense of the accused to consider the case of one of the sisters by a panel of judges. Victims' lawyers believe, that the involvement of a jury in the case will allow an objective verdict.

The body of 57-year-old Mikhail Khachaturyan was found 27 July 2018 years old in the entrance of a house on Altufevskoye Highway in Moscow with stab wounds to the chest and neck. According to investigators, three daughters stabbed their father multiple times with a knife and a hammer. After the arrest, the girls accused their father of years of abuse and violence.. During the investigation, the youngest of the daughters, Maria, was declared insane, her case was separated into separate proceedings.

The materials will be considered in the Butyrsky Court 10 August closed. The hearing in the case of the older sisters will begin in the Moscow City Court after 31 August, as soon as the jury is selected.
