The family of the deceased does not believe the police version.

A state of emergency in Niasvizh – a villager was found in a police car hanged on shoelaces. Blogger Nexta has reported this in his telegram channel.

Nn.by has found out the details of the story. The police claim it was suicide. The relatives of the deceased are sure that there could be no suicide.

The deceased’s name is Siarhei Abramovich. He was 48 years old.

The man lived in the village of Slaukava (a few kilometers from Niasvizh) together with an elderly parent. The father called the police that night, on November 29.

Siarhei Abramovich worked, according to his father, cutting the forest for private traders. He was divorced. Sometimes he drank, was coded.

“That evening, Siarhei and a friend went to his boss, he paid them with vodka. Siarhei drank two bottles together with the friend.

Then he came home, quarreled with his father. The father called the police,” – Siarhei's sister Inna says. That evening, she was at her father’s.

“The police arrived, two men: a lieutenant and a warrant officer. Siarhei was taken away,” – Viktar Abramovich, the father of the deceased, recalls. It was after lunch, he says, between about 16.00 and 17.00.

And later in the evening, the investigators came to the father and said: they did not take the son to the department. He hanged himself on the laces from the shoes in the police car. The body was examined and taken immediately to the morgue.

The father does not believe in a suicide.

“How can one hang himself in a car? Yes, I saw the body – we took it on December 14th. There were no marks on the neck, – Viktar Abramovich says. – Someone from the investigators blurted out that the son had a fight in the car on the way to the office.

Siarhei's sister does not believe in a suicide either.

“A car arrived, a new UAZ Patriot. The brother was taken. But they were taken not to Niasvizh, but towards Yushevichy. They went through the villages. Allegedly they wanted to check another guy there.

And at the intersection near the village of Pahulianka, my brother was found dead,” – Inna says.

The woman asks questions: did both policemen have to get out of the car? How and why was her brother left alone? Was there no video recorder in the car? If so, why isn't she being told anything about this?

“I have documents from the morgue, a copy. It says: The cause of death is being established.

My second brother, a younger one, died long ago. He really hanged himself. I saw how a man who hanged himself looked like. He was blue, and the death certificate said “asphyxia,” – Inna says. – And they didn’t allow me to dress Siarhei. They said that the face was damaged, he needed make-up, they would do everything themselves. They dressed him in the morgue. I did not see whether there were traces of beatings on the body. But there was no mark on the neck.

Besides, a police officer I knew told me that it is almost impossible to hang oneself in a car.”

According to the father, one of the locals saw a police UAZ standing, two policemen were near it, and a body was lying on the ground. The father believes that the son could start a fight that ended in murder, maybe it was even an accident one, but that was not a suicide.

The sister is also sure that Siarhei did not die himself, but now the police cover their own employees.

The body of Siarhei Abramovich was quickly passed to the relatives. On November 29, he died, on November 30, the body was already passed to the relatives. On December 1, Siarhei was buried.
