The defendants drove with the deceased in his car to the forest, under the direction of defendant 1, where they got out of the car and began to walk and talk, and when they reached a point far from the vehicle, they told the deceased that they had no money; The deceased was angry and asked if they thought they could steal from him, and in order to frighten him, he and defendant 2 gave him several slaps, when he gave the first slap, and as a result of the slapping, the deceased swayed and fell on a rock, and they noticed blood dripping from his head (pp. 338-341). In this context, defendant 1 denied the claim that the deceased was beaten after he fell; loot that he was beaten while being dragged into the car or that at this point the deceased began to breathe; loot that beat the deceased with kicks, punches or stones; loot that he hit the deceased with a sock with a stone in it or that he had equipped himself with a sock in advance; the name of one of them instructed the other or encouraged the other to beat the deceased; He also plundered that he beat the deceased so hard that defendant 2 had to separate them (pp. 337-338, 366, 370-371, 374-378, 385, 415-413, 422). According to him, he and Defendant 2 lied in their interrogations with the police, and each of them tried to defend himself, incriminate the other and radicalize the other's part, while adding small details in order to add a touch of credibility to the story; And in fact, all the other things that were told about in the interrogations, including the claim of each of them that the other threatened him, did not really happen (pp. 374-378, 384-385, 393, 395-397, 422).
According to him, after a few minutes, when they saw that the deceased did not get up and did not react and that a lot of blood was dripping from him, and since it was raining a lot which they thought was increasing blood flow, they began to drag the deceased towards the car, thinking that his condition would improve in a dry place and he would wake up. During the towing the deceased continued to bleed, and at a certain point he felt that the deceased's leg had fallen and saw that he was pale, and therefore concluded that he was dead (pp. 341-343, 415-417). After they got to the car, they waited for a few minutes, tried to move the deceased's leg and call out to him, but he did not respond, and then they were stressed and realized that they "had to somehow disappear the body" so that they would not be tied to the incident; he suggested to defendant 2 that they go to a gas station, and on their way there he told defendant 2 that if the deceased was alive when they returned to the car, they would leave him in the car and do nothing (pp. 344-346, 417).
