This is reported by the local website Zanoza with reference to the press service of the State Penitentiary Service of Ukraine in the Zaporozhye region.
The incident occurred yesterday, August 9, in a cell in the Zaporozhye pre-trial detention center.
“He tied a sheet to the TV shelf and tried to hang himself. He was stopped by the pre-trial detention center officers. Now a psychologist is working with him. His physical condition is satisfactory,” the department noted.
This is not the first time a man has attempted to take his own life. He had previously attempted to commit suicide, but, at the request of his wife, he was transferred from solitary confinement to general confinement due to suicidal tendencies.
Let us remind you that in early June, 8-year-old Nastya Bobkova disappeared in Zaporozhye. The girl's body was found in Khortitsa. Subsequently, a 34-year-old suspect in the rape and murder of the girl was also detained. He admitted to what he had done. At the end of July it became known that this man was involved in the rape of another child.
