Back from Swiss prison, he feels well and thanks fellow citizens that supported him, Vitaly Kaloev announced in Domodedovo airport, Moscow, Vesti TV channel reported. “In prison, I didn’t feel outside the homeland,” Kaloev emphasized.
The former prisoner said he wants to go back to Vladikavkaz, where he will visit the cemetery in Beslan and the graves of his children.
In October 2005, Vitaly Kaloev was sentenced to eight years of prison for stabbing to death Skyguide air traffic controller Peter Nielsen February 24, 2004. The controller was on duty in time of the 2002 mid-air collision of Russia’s Tu-154 airliner and Boeing cargo plane. The death toll of that crash reached 71, including Kaloev’s wife and children.
Kaloev was released after the Swiss court upheld the ruling that shortened his sentence to five years and three months, of which he had served two-thirds. Four air traffic control managers were found guilty of manslaughter. Three of them got 12-month suspended sentences and one more was fined. Four other employees were acquitted.
