The conflict started because Brovking had parked his car at a traffic way between the rows of parked cars and hindered the traffic. The victim slowly started going round his car and the car brushed against the wife of the accused, when she had got out the car. The woman was not injured or hurt. Brovkin caught up and them blocked the doctor’s car and started a row. During the conflict he shot at him, then hit him several time with a traumatic gun and then shot at his head point-blank , which became the cause of the death.
