Vitaly Nalivkin, director of the satirical Internet series about the “chairman of the board of directors of the Ussuri region”, confirmed reports about the death of actor Andrei Neretin. Andrei Klochkov told socialbites.ca that the artist began to actively drink alcohol, which is why he was hospitalized.
“Indeed it is. Just a few days ago, a video was published in which our comrade president recorded his objection that we could not continue the project. Because we are currently under pressure due to the second criminal case filed against us. This situation affected our comrade so negatively that he lost his temper. Before this, he was receiving treatment and had not consumed alcohol for a year. Then I couldn’t stand it after receiving the message that the project would be closed. He was very fond of alcohol. It actually had an impact,” Klochkov explained.
According to the director, doctors have not yet stated the exact cause of Neretin’s death, but alcohol addiction definitely had a negative impact on the actor’s health.
“We tried to provide him with all the necessary assistance, he was sent to hospital but he did not make it. Doctors tried to save him, but he was in such a state that nothing could be done. And on Saturday, at 19.00 Primorye time, we received the news that our legendary comrade president had passed away. [Оторвавшийся тромб] – this is more of an assumption. We don’t know the reason, the doctors haven’t told us yet. But it is clear that these are precisely the consequences of the harmful effects of alcohol. “We haven’t heard any medical terms yet,” he concluded.
