The Russian prosecutor general says they don’t look at which
nationality a victim belongs to. Such was expressed at a press
conference in Yerevan by Russian prosecutor general Yuri Chayka about
cases in which Armenians were murdered in Russia.

"We look to solve all serious crimes, including murder," he pointed
out. Chayka then spoke about the murders of Russian Central Bank
president Andrey Koglov and journalist Anna Palitkovskaya.

Chayka said that concerning murders of Armenians on Russian soil
that all he can do for now is report on the progress of each case. We
remind that six Armenians were murdered in Russia in 2006.

Chayka said that cooperation between Russia and CIS countries
concerning crimes against southern Caucasians is good. "I can also
say, about human rights protection, that there are no complaints from
European or national organizations," he said.
