Preventive prison for taxi driver who overwhelmed Mexicans in Russia

A Moscow court ordered two months of preventive detention for the taxi driver who on Saturday raided his vehicle on a sidewalk in the center of the capital and injured eight pedestrians, including two Mexican fans who arrived for the World Cup. We ordered to satisfy the demand of the investigation to establish a precautionary measure against Chinguiz Anarbek, of two months of arrest, until August 16, "said Judge Natalia Larina. The taxi driver, a Kyrgyz of 28 years, previously recognized his fault before a judge and apologized to those affected. I apologize for everything I did. I am very sorry for what happened, I fully acknowledge my guilt and I apologize to all those affected, "said the taxi driver when appearing in court. The taxi driver told through an interpreter that "he had not slept for two days" and therefore confused "the brake with the accelerator", as he had said this weekend before the police during the interrogation. I did not sleep because I have to feed a family and make money, "said the defendant, who is going to undergo an examination to check his mental faculties. The incident, which occurred on Saturday in a street next to the Red Square in Moscow, caused a stir among the many people who were in the area, crowded with fans from many countries that arrived for the World Cup. Among the eight injured are two Mexican women, who did not require assistance since they hardly suffered any bruises, as confirmed by the Embassy of Mexico. The other injured people are Azerbaijanis, Russians and a Ukrainian. As of today, three wounded are still hospitalized, all Russians, whose condition is "satisfactory and will soon be discharged," said a health source. After his arrest, the man said he had lost control of the vehicle. But a video of the moment of abuse spread by media and social networks caused rumors that it could be an intentional act, since you can see how the taxi, which was standing behind several cars due to traffic, suddenly starts and makes a sharp turn to the right going up on the sidewalk and running over everyone who was there. Then the taxi driver gets out of the car and is chased by numerous pedestrians.
