The Investigation Committee of the Russian Prosecutor General's
Office has launched genocide proceedings based on Clause 357 of the
Criminal Code of the Russian Federation on actionable information about
murders and bodily injuries of Russian citizens of Ossetian ethnicity
resident in South Ossetia, committed by the Georgian Armed Forces.
Started in August 2008, the proceedings will provide the
Investigation Committee with an objective body of evidence for future
criminal proceedings against particular persons, and assist international
judicial agencies in correct, effective and unbiased evaluation of illegal
acts and in determining personal responsibility of suspects, irrespective
of the location thereof.
