/PanARMENIAN.Net/ A district court of Kaliningrad, Russia, has brought
in a second verdict of guilty for Vladimir Podtoptanny and Denis
Krupitsin, charged of killing Armenian-native Meruzhan Sargsyan and
beating his brother, Meruzhan Sargsyan in September 2005. The accused
were sentenced to 14 years of imprisonment under article 111.4 of the
Russian Penal Code.

The first verdict, issued in 2006, supposed a more severe punishment
(16 years in prison). However, it was appealed in the circuit court.

The current verdict is likely to be appealed as well, since both the
prosecution and defense showed displeasure.
