As reported by Alexey Tsydenov, the human rights ombudsman of the republic will provide the necessary assistance to the family of the deceased. According to preliminary information, the murder was preceded by a long internal conflict. The threats were reported to the police, but no action was taken. An internal check is underway.
The Investigative Committee of Buryatia opened a criminal case under Part 1 of Article 105 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (murder). The victim’s 31-year-old neighbour was detained as a suspect. The man himself handed over a hunting rifle, stating that the father of many children had been shot with it.
According to the investigation, the suspect had been in conflict with the family living next door for many years. After another fight, he started chasing his neighbour on horseback in his car. The attacker shot him in the back with a firearm and fled. A few hours later he went to the police, wrote a confession and handed over the weapon.
