    Moscow - A Russian jury has found three policemen guilty of murder for
    burning a suspect to death during an interrogation, the Gazeta
    newspaper reported Tuesday. Reporting on the trial in the Volga River
    city of Saratov, the paper said the jury accepted the evidence from
    the October 2008 incident in which the policemen, who were drunk at
    the time, had first beaten an Armenian suspected of theft and then
    poured petrol over him and set him ablaze. They buried his body in a
    forest.
    The three policemen face possible life sentences after the verdict.
