EN have not been previously convicted criminally

. Politsei uurib nüüd nende täpsemat seost ohvriga, tegutsemise motiivi ja teisi asjaolusid. Reimaa lisas, et noorte vägivallajuhtumitele reageeritakse alati tõsiselt. Kahtlustatavatel noortel on olnud politseiga kokkupuuteid varasemates väärteomenetlustes, kuid mitte seoses vägivallaga. Uurimine jätkub, et selgitada, miks teisipäeva õhtul toimunu selliste tagajärgedega lõppes.

Lõuna ringkonnaprokuratuuri prokurör Raul Heido ütles, et esialgse uurimisversiooni kohaselt olid kannatanu ja kahtlustatavad tuttavad. Nendevahelised suhted võisid viia peksmiseni. Esialgsetest tõenditest nähtuvalt oli kuriteos suurem roll tüdrukutel. Prokuratuur taotles nende vahistamist ja õhtul võeti nad kaheks kuuks vahi alla. Seni kogutud tõendite põhjal ei olnud noormehe roll kuriteos keskne ja praegu puudub oht, et ta hakkaks menetlusest kõrvale hoidma. Seetõttu ei taotletud noormehe vahistamist.

Kriminaalmenetluse viib läbi Lõuna prefektuur ja juhib Lõuna ringkonnaprokuratuur.

The police detained them on Wednesday and charged them with murder.The suspects have not been previously convicted criminally. The police are now investigating their exact connection to the victim, the motive behind their actions, and other circumstances. Reimaa added that incidents of violence involving young people are always taken seriously. The suspects had previous contacts with the police in minor offenses but not related to violence. The investigation continues to determine why the events of Tuesday evening ended with such tragic consequences.Raul Heido, prosecutor of the Southern District Prosecutor's Office, said that according to the initial investigation version, the victim and the suspects were acquaintances.

Based on the evidence gathered so far, the boy's role in the crime is not central, and there is currently no risk of him avoiding the proceedings.
