No criminal case has yet been opened in connection with the accident that paralyzed a student of UrGEU.

      No criminal case has yet been opened in connection with the accident at the Amundsen–Volgogradskaya intersection in Yekaterinburg, in which a 19-year-old girl is unable to move, Olga, the student's mother, told "KP‑Yekaterinburg."

      During the collision, Milena hit her head four times — against the windshield, the hood, a metal barrier and the asphalt, "KP‑Yekaterinburg" writes. As a result of a closed traumatic brain injury she fell into a wakeful coma.

      A criminal case over the accident has still not been opened because doctors were unable to carry out a forensic medical examination. When the girl opened her eyes, investigators requested the necessary information from the doctors. The results of the forensic medical examination are expected to be ready on September 1, Olga told "KP‑Yekaterinburg."

      As the well-known lawyer Sergey Kolosovsky explained to "KP‑Yekaterinburg," experts are most likely postponing their decision because treatment is not yet finished and they cannot make a final conclusion about the severity of the injuries. Such cases are not uncommon in judicial practice, the lawyer noted.

      Recall that the accident occurred on the afternoon of June 2. A Kia Rio, driven by a 21-year-old woman who had received her license only a month earlier, struck two girls while turning, one of whom was 19-year-old Milena. She sustained the most severe injuries and remained motionless on the road.

      To traffic police officers the driver explained that because of the rain she did not see the traffic light and ran the red light.
