Oleg Gazmanov, Igor Nikolaev, Natasha Koroleva, Bogdan Titomir, Alexander Tsekalo and Lolita will be interrogated in court in the case of the murdered Igor Talkov. 150 witnesses will be raised again as the investigation resumes. It turned out that the murderer Shlyafman, arrested in absentia, is the brother of the St. Petersburg crime boss of the 90s. This probably helped him escape justice to Israel.
According to Mash, the first hearing will take place on July 23 in the Petrogradsky District Court of St. Petersburg. The reopening of the 33-year-old case was initiated by a lawyer from the Forty Forty organization. Despite the fact that Valery Shlyafman was ticking from Russia.
According to investigators, Igor Talkov was shot dead in 1991 in the Leningrad Yubileiny Sports Palace in the midst of a stupid quarrel. Initially, Aziza was supposed to sing before Talkov, but her bodyguard Igor Malakhov demanded that she perform after. The result was a fight, the rocker was the first to pull out a gun. Malakhov responded with a revolver and didn’t hit anyone, but Shlyafman’s bullet turned out to be more accurate – he shot at the guard and accidentally hit Talkov.
Activists believe that the handwriting does not look like murder by negligence. Otherwise, the singer’s colleague would have tried to save Igor, rather than run to cover up the traces of the crime. The order of actions and their complexity indicate that the steps were thought through in advance, says lawyer Georgy Soldatov.
The director of Talkov left for Israel back in 1992, changed his name – now his name is Valery Vysotsky – and never bore any responsibility. His brother, known in criminal circles, could have helped Valery leave the country, social activists believe. Therefore, they will ask the court to take this into account.
And more details about Talkov, his life and anti-Soviet creativity have already been told in Mash Room.
