0?American adoptive parents of the 3-year-old boy must be brought to court over Maxim?s death,? Russia?s children's rights ombudsman Pavel Astakhov said.
0He voiced his indignation over the fact that the U.S. has not yet handed over all data concerning the investigation of the boy?s death to the Russian Investigative Committee, though some details were made available to the media.
0Maxim Kuzmin died in Texas on January 21, 2013. The recently published autopsy results say that the boy?s death was accidental, and the bruises found on his body had resulted from self-injury as Maxim was not mentally stable. ?

0The autopsy report of a three-year-old Russian boy adopted by a Texan couple concludes that the child had more than 30 bruises on his body as well as other signs that he was routinely injured.

0The medical document released to the Odessa American suggests that the foster family, who have also adopted the victim?s brother, were struggling to provide proper care for Maksim Shatto but examiners believe that the injuries were due to self-injury stemming from a serious mental condition.
0The medical examiner found abrasions, scrapes and bruises on the boy?s body.
0Max?s adoptive father has said that the boy was constantly hitting his head at home and had serious behavioural issues.
0The mother had previously told the authorities that Maksim used to claw himself, which she tried to prevent by cutting his nails short and having him wear gloves at night.
0The boy, born Maksim Kuzmin, died January 21 after his adoptive mother Laura Shatto found him unresponsive outside their home in Gardendale, Texas.
0Last week?US prosecutors said that no charges would be made in the case due to lack of evidence.
0Moscow has repeatedly blamed the adoptive couple for the death of the child based on abusive treatment. But the US authorities claim Maksim?s death was an accident.
0Russia, U.S. to hold consultations on destiny of adopted children soon - ministry
0Russia and the United States will soon hold consultations and will in particular discuss the destiny of two Russian children adopted to the U.S., Kirill Kuzmin and Yegor Shatabalov, Voice of Russia's Olga Denisova reports.
0"We plan to hold relevant consultations soon during which we will receive exhaustive information on the investigations on the deaths of Russian children. Then we [will discuss] the issue on the latest two cases related to Kirill Kuzmin and the re-adoption of Yegor Shatabalov," Russian Deputy Education and Science Minister, Igor Remorenko, said while speaking at a "governmental hour" in the Russian State Duma.
0Kirill Kuzmin's brother, Maxim Kuzmin, died in his adoptive family. Yegor Shatabalov, Kuzbass native, was adopted several years ago by a U.S. woman, who as it later transpired was in a same-sex marriage.
The Russian official said that several requests have been sent to the U.S. State Department. In these requests Russia raises the issue that in certain cases agreement on conditions in which Russian children live in U.S. adoptive families has been violated, Remorenko said.
0"In particular, we've stated that if conditions in which a child lives change, we are entitled to demand them to provide other living conditions, including the child's return to Russia," Remorenko said.
0?The Russian official said that regardless of the ban Russia introduced on U.S. citizens, the Russian-U.S. agreement on adoption remains in force until January 1, 2014. "This allows us to demand that the U.S. side fulfill the agreement on regulations related to control over living conditions and upbringing of adopted children," Remorenko said.
