MOSCOW (AP) A Moscow court on Monday convicted 12 teenage boys and a man of committing a series of vicious ethnic attacks, including the murder of a chess champion who was a member of Russia's Yakut ethnic group.
The attacks, which were videotaped, set to heavy music and widely disseminated on Web sites, prompted widespread outrage among many Russians and again focused attention on the country's increase in race attacks and hate crimes.
The Moscow City Court sentenced them to prison terms ranging from 4 1/2 years to 10 years after convicting them of crimes including ethnically motivated assault, murder and attempted murder, court spokeswoman Anna Usacheva and city prosecutors said.
The group's oldest member, 20-year-old Ivan Kalinichenko, was ordered to undergo psychiatric treatment in addition to being imprisoned 10 years
