Sergei Filin acid attack case

Dmitrichenko was arrested on March 5, 2013 in relation to the attack, of January 17, 2013, on the artistic director of the Bolshoi Sergei Filin.[2] According to the police an unknown assailant doused acid on the face of Filin.[3] On March 5 Dmitrichenko’s home was searched.[4] According to Moscow police on March 6, all three detainees wrote a confession.[5] On December 3, 2013 Dmitrichenko was given a six-year prison sentence for his role in the attack.[6] In March 2014 the conviction from December 2013 was canceled. The case was then reviewed. At the retrial the court refused Dmitrichenko's request to call witnesses in his defense and rendered a verdict quickly with the prosecution, resulting in a sentence of 51/2 years, six months less than the original 2013 sentence.[7]

Dmitrichenko was granted an early release from prison due to good behavior in May, 2016 after serving 3 years of his sentence.[8] Following a chance meeting with the Bolshoi's new artistic director, Makhar Vaziev, Dmitrichenko was granted a building pass and returned the Bolshoi for morning practice routines only. General director Vladimir Urin stated after Dmitrichenko's release that the dancer could audition to rejoin the company provided there was an opening and provided he proved himself as an artist.[9]

gollark: Oh, and unify ServiceWorker and WebWorker and SharedWorker and whatever into some sort of nicer "background task" API.
gollark: API coherency: drop stuff like XMLHttpRequest which is obsoleted by cleaner things like `fetch`, actually have a module system and don't just randomly scatter objects and functions in the global scope, don't have a weird mix of callbacks, events and promises everywhere.
gollark: Alternatively, cross-origin stuff is allowed but runs with separate cookies, caches, etc. to first-party requests, and comes with a "requested from this origin" header.
gollark: Cross-origin fixes: *no* use of crossdomain resources unless the other thing opts in. This breaks image hotlinking and such, which is annoying, but fixes CSRF entirely.
gollark: That doesn't really help with the security issues though.
