City Department of Internal Affairs in St. Petersburg and Leningrad region informed about that. Preliminary information says Kacharava and his friend were smoking near a bookstore at about 18:30 when the group of young men attacked them. Nearly ten young men began beating students and then they disappeared. After the attack Kacharava died red-handed of numerous knife wounds and his friend was hospitalized with craniocerebral injury and thorax wound.
