MOSCOW, August 30 (RAPSI) - A Moscow lawyer Dmitry Vinogradov, who shot six people in his office dead last November, will give testimony in the Moscow City Court on September 3, RAPSI reported from the courtroom on Friday.

Two witnesses for defense will be questioned on the same day, Judge Sergei Podoprigorov said.

Vinogradov, 29, a Moscow lawyer, went into the office of the pharmaceutical company he worked for on the morning of November 7 and shot at his colleagues, killing three men and two women and wounding a fourth man, who later died in hospital.

Hours before the shooting, Vinogradov dubbed the Russian Breivik posted a message on a social network about his homicidal plans and expressed hatred for the human race.

Vinogradov wrote that humankind has defied the laws of nature in its relentless quest for eternal life and this has been a slap in the face of natural selection. Thus, not only have we lost sight of genetic weakness, but we have even encouraged its perpetuation under the guises of "humanity" and "tolerance," he wrote.

Forensic experts confirmed his sanity during the probe, despite his unbalanced state during the shooting spree. Vinogradov was charged under several articles of the Criminal Code, including murder, assassination attempt, supporting extremism. 

Vinogradov has pleaded guilty earlier in August. He may face life imprisonment if convicted.
