The Moscow City Court’s public prosecutor has demanded a 16-year custodial sentence for Alexander Koptsev, charged with attacking the congregation at a Moscow synagogue on Bolshaya Bronnaya Street on January 11, 2006.
Koptsev not only inflicted physical damage by stabbing the believers, but also affected people who were inside the synagogue during the attack, he said.
The Russian Supreme Court earlier repealed the Moscow City Court’s sentence of 13 years in custody.
