The story of “Russian Nazi Lord”
The night o f May 19th, 2017 , a crowd agglomerated in a popular neighborhood of the city to make Makeev pay for his insults and his hate speech against women, children, seniors and the disabled , which he spread through social media, from where the hostility against Aleksei was encouraged.
That Friday , Carlos Eduardo , of 20 years of age, along with other persons, entered Makeev’s house, in the “cuartería” of the Supermanzana 70, to rebuke him.
He and the crowd had been frenzied from social media to be part of that popular chapter broadcasted in real-time. Upon the break-in of his space and the mass aggression , the foreigner of 42 years old , stabbed the young man with a knife several times, causing him mortal injuries .
Aleksei was hit, stoned and almost lynched , which caused his hospitalization. His belongings were stolen. On May 30th, 2017 , the trial against him began; his legal defense was in charge of public defenders, and he faced his process in the Chetumal prison , but was later moved to the one in Cancún , where he remains.
The prosecutors have not informed about the advance of th e investigation file 126/2017 that was opened for the attempted murder against Makeev , which includes the omission of local police officers who received the instruction of withdrawing when the crowd gathered outside the household of the foreigner.
