 Two buses running to Yerevan have been detained in Moscow over technical failures, according to Gazeta.ru. 

Spokesperson for Chief Department of the Russian Interior Ministry Andrey Galiakberov says they manage to verify the route of the buses running from Moscow to Yerevan and stopped them to inspect their technical state. Two buses were taken to a special bus station over serious technical failures and lack of the necessary license and violation of safety requirements. Galiakberov says those guilty for the situation will be brought responsible. 

To recall, 8 people were killed and 47 injured, as a passenger bus running from Moscow to the Armenian capital of Yerevan overturned on the M4 "Don" highway in Tula Region. One of the injured died at hospital. The bus belonged to an Armenian Company King Deluxe. A criminal case was initiated on the basis of Article 264.5 of the Criminal Code of Russia "violation of traffic rules and improper operation of transport means." The police do not rule out that the driver might have fallen asleep while driving. To recall, an ad hoc committee has been set up at the behest of Armenian Prime Minister Hovik Abrahamyan to help organize funerals and provide assistance to the injured.
