St. Petersburg, May 30, Boris Khodorovsky. The director of the SShOR in figure skating in St. Petersburg, Tatyana Menshikova, said that she sees no grounds for an internal investigation of the situation caused by the statements of figure skater Elizaveta Nugumanova to coach Evgeny Rukavitsyn. Previously, Nugumanova said in an interview with Match TV that Rukavitsyn and members his teams repeatedly insulted her during the last season, talking about the athlete being overweight. «There are no grounds for an internal investigation. All questions that Liza (Nugumanova) addressed to me were always resolved. I don’t know what guided the skater, putting forward such serious accusations against my coaches. I won’t say anything bad about Nugumanova. I don’t see the point in sinking down to rinsing dirty laundry, «said Menshikova, head of the school where Rukavitsyn's group works.
