Mr. Pichugin is interrogated and a further charge for an additional “murder” from 1998 – the murder of a town mayor, V. Petukhov – is announced against him.

Mr. Nevzlin is also charged in this incident, as well as the incidents Mr. Pichugin was charged in on April 14, 2005.

Once more, there is no evidence tying Mr. Pichugin (or Mr. Nevzlin) to those crimes. Instead, they depend on layered hearsay that is ultimately recanted.
