Hands tied and scrotum cut off: a man’s body with traces of torture was discovered in Izyum
During the exhumation in de-occupied Izyum in Kharkiv Oblast, the investigation found the body of a civilian man with traces of torture.
The victim’s hands were tied behind his back and his scrotum was cut off.
This was reported by Graty on Saturday, September 17, citing a medical expert.
The man’s identity and age were not established at that time. It is known that his body was in the grave with the number 91.
We will remind that on September 15, about 450 ordinary graves and one mass grave were discovered in Izyum, liberated from the Russian occupiers.
The next day, 22 bodies of dead civilians were exhumed, as well as 17 servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine from the mass grave, whose hands were tied with ropes behind their backs.
As the mayor of Izyum Valery Marchenko noted, exhumation of the bodies of the dead will last about two weeks. Currently, 10 investigative and prosecutorial teams are working on the spot.
DNA tests will be conducted to identify the dead. If the relatives know that their relatives are buried there, they will come to Kharkiv for identification, and after all the procedures they will take the body and bury it in Izyum.
