“Information regarding this incident has been entered into the Unified Register of Pre-Trial Investigations under Article 115, marked as ‘Natural death’. Law enforcement officers are working to establish all the circumstances of the incident,” the police press service reported.
Local community pages have also confirmed that the circulating reports were false.
