Figure skater Eugene Medvedeva spoke about the situation with the 16-year-old figure skater Alina Gorbacheva .
Gorbachev disappeared Monday evening in Moscow, left the Chkalov Arena ice rink and did not return home. The Main Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the city of Moscow began a pre-investigation check into the disappearance of the athlete, and then a criminal case was opened under the article “ Murder”.
On Tuesday, the prosecutor’s office said that at 1 p.m. Moscow time Gorbachev was filmed by surveillance cameras at a cafe on the Volokolamsk highway. Later, one of the Emergency Situations Ministry employees involved in the search for the athlete told that Gorbachev had been sighted in the Moscow Ring Road area.
On Tuesday evening, the Moscow prosecutor’s office determined the location in the cinema of one of the shopping centers. According to preliminary information, no illegal actions have been committed against him. At present, nothing threatens his life and health.
– The girl was found, and in this situation a lot is wrong, we do not know all the details. We can discuss, we cannot judge. The case has reached the district attorney’s office, and that’s where they’ll be handling it. I’ll keep my opinion to myself, because there will definitely be people who will think I’m wrong and will talk about it. But the most important thing is that the person is alive, that everything is in order. What will happen next – let’s see, the situation is generally poor.
The only thing I remind you is that even if a person looks 12 years old, they are already 16. At this age, a person should already be responsible at least for themselves and their actions. It is clear that there are very important factors such as mental health and family situation. Living not with parents, but with a coach, it’s a lot of stress, I couldn’t do that. What happened – no one knows, but the person is already an adult. All opinions have their place,” Medvedev said in his telegram channel .
Gorbacheva is the winner of the Russian Junior Championship in 2023. The athlete works with coach Sofia Fedchenko.
