Ali-khan Azizov, who died in the Moscow metro, was previously convicted of attempted robbery committed in … the metro. In addition, he had a criminal conviction for theft. Law enforcement officers believe that he had a conflict with a relative, as a result of which both fell on the rails.
Let us remind you that on Saturday evening two people fell under the train at the Skhodnenskaya metro station of the Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya line. The incident was preceded by a short skirmish on the platform, as a result of which two men literally rolled under the arriving train. The driver braked, but one of the passengers no longer needed help – he died on the spot. The second, all bloody, got out from under the train with the help of the metro staff. Despite the injuries, he ran as fast as he could. The law enforcement officers tried to catch up with him, began questioning passers-by on the street, but they just shrugged.
However, the second man was also found rather quickly – and also dead. It turned out to be Ali Khan’s younger brother, 22-year-old Karan Azizov. Soon after the tragedy in the subway, he briskly entered the elevator of a multi-storey building on Svoboda Street, pushing the woman and child away. And a few minutes later he was found dead under the windows of the building.
The brothers were born and raised in Dagestan, in the city of Izberbash. At the same time, both had a criminal past. At the age of 19, already living in Moscow, Ali-Khan and his accomplice tried to take away the man’s mobile phone – moreover, also in the metro. For that crime, the young man received 9 months in prison. In 2016, after his release, Ali-khan committed two thefts of instruments from private houses in his native Izberbash, after which he was sentenced to 2 years. After serving time again, Azizov returned to Moscow in May of this year and got a job as a cashier in a supermarket. As for Karan, he was involved in drug possession. In Moscow, the younger brother lived with his father (the brothers’ parents are divorced).
CCTV cameras did not give a complete picture of the tragedy in the subway. Perhaps Karan had a withdrawal, he intended to commit suicide, Ali-Khan tried to restrain him and eventually died. However, my brother survived him by only a couple of hours.
