Suspect in the murder of parents on Orbital in Rostov was convicted

The brutal massacre of elderly spouses on Orbital Street in Rostov-on-Don is acquiring new shocking details. The suspect, 49-year-old Vitaly Sh., who is now wanted by police, was convicted. As it turned out, the man has twice served time for murder, being released on parole.

Recall that on the afternoon of November 11, in one of the apartments on Orbital, the dismembered bodies of a 73-year-old man and his 74-year-old wife were found. The Rostov Regional Prosecutor’s Office has taken the investigation under special control.

According to a source portal DonDay, Vitaly Sh. was convicted in 2003. He was sentenced to 12 years in prison for murder and theft. However, in late 2010, he was released on parole.

The freedom didn't last long. According to the files of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation, in June 2014, Vitaly Sh., together with an accomplice, organized the brutal murder of his mother-in-law for profit. The woman was trapped, strangled with a coat belt, and the body wrapped in a carpet was buried in a cemetery. The criminals got 5 thousand rubles, gold, icon and telephone.

The attackers did not stop there: the next day they kidnapped her sister, demanding money and cards. The woman was saved only by chance - a passerby scared off the attackers.

In August 2017, the court sentenced Vitaly Sh. to 22 years in prison. The Supreme Court left the sentence unchanged. However, like the first time, the man was released from prison early. After his release, he went into business and, judging by social networks, was actively looking for acquaintances on sites.

Police are still searching for the suspect. The investigation is to find out the motives for the brutal murder of an elderly couple on Orbital.
