Personal Watercraft Insurance, Russia Detains 5 in Deaths of 14 in Summer Camp Boat Accident
MOSCOW — A boating accident in northwestern Russia that claimed the lives of 14 disadvantaged children from Moscow was the result of criminal negligence and recklessness, investigators said in a statement on Monday.
“The instructors who accompanied the children did not take necessary efforts to rescue them,” Russia’s powerful Investigative Committee, the country’s equivalent of the F.B.I., said in the statement. “They were thinking about their own lives.”
