In the Nizhny Novgorod region, a local resident is accused of murdering his brother (Operational video, video comment)

      In March 2026, the mother of a 40-year-old resident of the Ivanovo region filed a report with law enforcement about his disappearance in the Balakhna municipal district of the Nizhny Novgorod region. Based on this fact, an investigator from the Balakhna inter-district investigative department of the Investigative Committee of Russia for the Nizhny Novgorod region initiated a criminal case under Part 1 of Article 105 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (murder). During the investigation, a number of circumstances regarding the man's disappearance were examined, including the circle of relatives and friends, possible reasons for his departure, and the version of a crime committed against him. As a result of well-planned investigative actions, investigators from the Investigative Committee of Russia, together with police officers, detained the missing man's cousin. According to the investigation, in March of this year, the accused brutally beat his cousin with a metal pipe on Cheryakhovskogo Street in the urban-type settlement of Lukino in the Balakhna municipal district. The man died at the scene from the injuries sustained. To conceal the crime, the suspect hid the victim's body in his garage. The investigator from the Investigative Committee of Russia submitted a petition to the court for the selection of a preventive measure in the form of detention for the man. While working on the initiated criminal case, the investigators conducted a comprehensive set of necessary investigative actions, including a thorough examination of the accused's home and garage using forensic techniques, interviewing witnesses, and appointing expert examinations. Currently, the investigator from the Investigative Committee of Russia is conducting a comprehensive set of necessary investigative actions aimed at establishing all the circumstances of the incident, collecting, and securing the evidence base.
