This decision was made on Tuesday, September 8, by the Moscow Tagansky Court, according to RIA Novosti.

In addition, Efremov was ordered to pay 800 thousand rubles in favor of the eldest son Sergei Zakharov, who died as a result of an accident provoked by the actor.

As noted, Judge Elena Abramova rejected the defense’s version that the victim died because of witnesses or doctors.

“The defense arguments that the death occurred due to the fact that eyewitnesses overturned their car after an accident and the failure to provide a variety of medical services are unfounded,” he said.

Efremov was taken out of the courtroom handcuffed and chained to a police officer.

The injured party stated that it would not appeal against the verdict.

We will recall, on June 8, that Efremov, in a drunken state, drove into the opposite lane on Smolenskaya Square in central Moscow and made a head-on collision with a VAZ car.

Sergei Zakharov, 57, who was driving him, died in hospital as a result of his injuries.

Efremov’s lawyers tried to prove that he was not driving his car at the time of the accident, but in the end, the actor still pleaded guilty, albeit with the wording «If it were me. “

The Prosecutor’s Office asked him for 11 years in a general regime colony for him.

At the same time, Efremov’s defense had a period of 6-8 years.
