Neva Express Blown Up Same as Grozny-Moscow Train
The detectives found wires near the place of railway explosion that crashed Neva Express train. Those wires were probably used to bring into action the explosive device, Interfax reported with reference to a source with investigators. Similar procedures were used on June 12, 2005 to blow up Grozny-Moscow train in Ozeretsky district of the Moscow region.
The wires were found in the ravine, not far from the railway. A person that closed the circuit could have been hiding exactly there.
As to the accident of June 12, 2005, the Grozny-Moscow train exploded at Uzunovo-Bogatishchevo trackside, 153km of Paveletsk direction of the Moscow railway; 42 suffered as a result of that crash.
For that crime, Vladimir Vlasov was condemned to 18 years in prison, and Mikhail Klevachev got the sentence of 19 years. Among charges presented to them was attempted murder for reasons of ethnic hatred.
