Investigation

After the explosion on June 11, 2008, all the explosions were combined in one series. The laying of explosives on November 10, 2008, hit the surveillance cameras. But due to the poor quality of the video, the only thing that could be determined was the model of the car. It was GAZ 31105. At that time, there were 800 such cars in Sochi. All owners of these cars were summoned for interrogations. Among them was Mikhail Denisenko. Ilya Galkin knew that they were looking for Denisenko's car and organized an explosion on February 20, 2009, so that the police wouldn't search for Denisenko. Galkin found the mobile number of the owner of the same car as in Denisenko and phoned him. He also sent him an SMS with the text "How to connect this?" He disguised the explosives as a flashlight, put the parts for the explosives in a bag, took a bottle of beer, food and put it all near the gatehouse at the construction site. Then one worker died and another was injured. Police found Galkin through a SIM card. After Galkin became a suspect, it was decided to pick up his laptop from him. The boss noticed how Galkin plays games on the laptop in time and took it from him. Galkin panicked. The laptop had a lot of information about explosives. It was April 14, 2009. That evening he told everything to his mother with whom he lived. They collected all the materials for the explosives and took them to the wasteland. During this, the police watched him. Mikhail Denisenko was detained on April 14, 2009. Ilya Galkin was detained on April 15, 2009.
