Detained on suspicion of murdering Armenia’s native Karen Abramyan
Arthur Ryno said he killed 37 for ethnic reasons, Vremya Novostey
reported with reference to prosecutors of South-West District of
Moscow. The detectives that are checking acknowledging statement of
the accused have found evidences for some murders already.

On April 17, three unidentified young men attacked Karen Abramyan, 46,
sticking knifes into him several times. Abramyan died in a hospital
of wounds. The attackers had been shouting nationalist slogans,
he managed to say before death.

But Vremya Novostey mentions only two detained – Arthur Ryno, 18,a
student of Kiselev Icon Painting School, and Pavel Skachevsky, 18,a
student of Russia’s State University of Physical Culture. They were
caught nearly red-handed because of the witness testimonies.

Having seen the tape of watching camera, Ryno told about a series of
murders that he allegedly committed from August 2006.

He was attacking in different regions of Moscow. Skachevsky helped
him in 20 crimes. Though Ryno gave details of the crimes he couldn’t
specify exact dates and places. But at least one more murder has been
confirmed already, sources with the prosecutors said.

Unlike Ryno, Skachevsky denies participation in the attacks.
