In Moscow, the trial of Mikhail Efremov began, the actor claims that he is not guilty of the fatal accident.

“I understand the charge brought against me. How can I admit my guilt when I don't remember anything? " - said the artist at the trial.

Biological traces of actor Mikhail Efremov were found on the driver's airbag, which went off at the time of the fatal accident. This suggests that it was the actor who drove the car, the prosecutor said in the Presnensky Court of Moscow, where the hearing on the merits began, notes "RIA News".

“Sweat and bacterial cells were found on the deployed driver's airbags, which, according to DNA research, belong to Efremov,” the state prosecution representative announced the results of the examination.

Earlier, the defense of Efremov stated that the artist was definitely in the car at the time of the accident, but it was not proven that he was driving. The actor himself said that he did not remember the events of that evening at all. He disagreed with the charges.

The lawyer of the victims, Alexander Dobrovinsky, said that earlier the artist had appeared at the pre-trial hearing and "stated that he was not an actor, but an individual entrepreneur."

Efremov, speaking in court, also asked to reprimand the lawyer of the injured party because of the “offensive comments”.

“Please pay attention to the insinuations about me from Alexander Dobrovinsky. My minor children, when they go to the sections, to sports, they communicate with friends who watch TV. And there the materials of the case are shown in the programs, where I allegedly admitted my guilt, there are insinuations and insults against me. Since I am a Spartak fan, I am no stranger to it, but these are children. I ask the court to reprimand them, ”said Efremov.

An analysis for drugs was taken from Efremov immediately after the accident.
