But at that very moment Ansar received two gunshot wounds (in the neck and pelvis), as a result of which he died.
On 7 April, the police exhumed the body three months after the funeral, despite the family's attempts to challenge the decision in court.

The officers did whatever they could think of, hitting him in the lower back, on the kidneys, on the back. They put white paper on my son's back, which meant that he had to be hit particularly hard. They hit his legs, his thighs, and below.
At the moment, Timur is still in pre-trial detention.
