In Krasnodar Krai, a criminal case has been opened regarding a mass brawl in the village of Afipsky in the Seversky District. The Seversky District Prosecutor's Office is overseeing the investigation into this incident, which occurred on the evening of September 7, 2024. Reports indicate that a group of individuals conspired to engage in hooliganism, resulting in a severe disruption of public order near the Afip House of Culture. Eyewitness accounts suggest that over 50 people participated in the fight, during which several gunshots were heard.
The police responded promptly to the situation, detaining 43 individuals for questioning. Despite the chaotic nature of the brawl, local authorities confirmed that none of the participants sought medical attention, and no serious injuries were reported. Preliminary investigations suggest that the conflict was domestic, allegedly stemming from a dispute over a girl. The participants could face substantial legal repercussions, as the investigation has been classified under Part 2 of Article 213 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, which addresses hooliganism committed by a group.
Legal experts have indicated that the consequences for those involved will vary based on their level of involvement and any aggravating factors. If any individuals seek medical assistance, this could lead to further charges being filed against them. The investigation will also be reported to the central office of the Investigative Committee of Russia, as instructed by the Chairman, Alexander Bastrykin.
