The Russian Federal Service for the Execution of Sentences officially announced that the cause of death in the pre-trial detention center of Belgorod volunteer Alexander Demydenko, who helped Ukrainian refugees, was suicide.

It became known on April 8 that Demydenko died in pre-trial detention center No. 3 of the Belgorod Region. At the same time, the FSIN statement states that the death occurred three days earlier.

Since the beginning of the full-scale Russian invasion, 61-year-old Oleksandr Demydenko has been on anti-war pickets and helped hundreds of Ukrainian refugees: he took them into his home, and also helped them return to their families by driving them to the border.

In October last year, Demydenko was detained, then arrested and sent to a detention center. His house was searched, during which the police allegedly found a grenade and detonators from the Second World War. At the same time, after the search, traces of beatings were visible on the volunteer’s body.

Later, Demydenko admitted that he had found a grenade in the yard, but did not have time to hand over the find to the police.

The publication “Vazhnye istorii” reported that the volunteer was going to be transferred from Belgorod to St. Petersburg and reclassified on a more serious charge – presumably treason.
