Police publicized identikits of Weil’s murderers

20 days have already passes since the murder Mark Weil, a legendary artistic director of the famed Ilkhom Theatre, who was reportedly killed by two young men near his house. However, police still does not have any substantial results of the investigation.

Police is reportedly doing its best in finding the murderers. As it was said before, people gave two possible reasons for his murder. First, political – Weil’s murder has to do with upcoming elections and his refusal to support the president’s daughter. Second, it might be an anti-Semitic attack, as Weil was a Jew and showed progressive ideas in his theater. However, police did not make any official statements about the reasons of the murder. Yet, according to Ferghana.ru News Agency, ‘detectives representing the prosecutor’s office, Interior Ministry, and National Security Service have concentrated on the domestic crime hypotheses’.

And here are the identikits of the murderers provided by police:

I personally do not think that these pictures will be of much help. You can find a lot of people who have such face features. Moreover, I do not think that these identikits are real. They maybe fabricated, because the police had to feed the public with positive information. Otherwise, their competence would be questioned by people.

The most possible scenario, I guess, is that in near future police finds couple of guys with criminal backgrounds and claims their alleged guiltiness. And of course, they will admit their guilt and will be sentenced from 10 to 20 years of imprisonment. But what if they are not guilty at all and admitted their “guilt” under tortures, which happens quite often in Uzbekistan? Uzbek police is very good in finding ways out from delicate situations…
