Kamchatka regional court pronounced sentence in case of cannibalism. 20-year old Denis Gazulin was sentenced to 13 years of imprisonment and his acquaintance 40-year old Vasily Doshenko sentenced to 20 years in colony of strict regime.
Prisoners at the bar didn`t admit guilt.
In October 2004, 2 friends killed and then ate a passer-by in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatski. The criminals were detained a year after the murder. The body of eaten man is still identified.
At first prisoners admitted the guilt. But today they declared that gave previous testimony under pressure of policemen. The defenders also insist on verdict "not guilty" and will lodge a complaint against decision of Kamchatka judges to Supreme Court.
It should be mentioned that last time a trial against cannibals was held in Kamchatka 4 year ago. Then every member of criminal group was sentenced to over 20 years of imprisonment.
