Aslan Usoyan, known as "Grandfather Khasan", was one of the most authoritative thieves in the law in Russia. He was severely wounded in two thousand ten but survived, but in early two thousand thirteen was shot and killed in Moscow with a sniper rifle with a telescopic sight while entering the Old Phaeton restaurant on Povarskaya Street at about fourteen thirty Moscow time. The murder caused considerable excitement in the criminal milieu and led to changes in the criminal hierarchy. Usoyan was the leader of a criminal group that included members of various thieves' clans. His murder remains unsolved, although the investigation has moved closer to solving the crime. Usoyan's supporters conducted their own investigation into the circumstances of the murder and found lawman Rovshan Dzhaniev guilty. Members of his clan were sentenced for Usoyan's murder. The murder of Ded Khasan also led to changes in the criminal hierarchy, where other authorities began to occupy more influential positions.
