In the Republic of Buryatia, law enforcement detained a man suspected of involvement in a violent robbery. The suspect is described by the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs as homeless and previously convicted. The arrest followed an investigation conducted by police teams in the area.

The 43-year-old man, with a prior criminal record and no fixed residence, faces charges of violent robbery. Reports indicate that the victim and the accused knew each other. The events unfolded when the accused visited the injured resident of the Poselye village in the Ivolginsky District. The two men reportedly consumed alcohol together, and after the beverages were finished, the visitor left the home.

Several hours later, the resident went to sleep, only to be awakened when the guest re-entered the dwelling. According to accounts, the attacker forced his way through a veranda door that had been secured by planks, ignored the hostess’s request to leave, and assaulted the woman. During the confrontation, the assailant attempted to strangle the victim, later leaving with the stolen cell phone after taking it from the home.

Following the incident, police units located and detained the suspect. It was later revealed that the detainee had managed to sell the stolen device and used the proceeds to buy alcohol.

The case is under formal investigation, with authorities pursuing additional details and potential charges related to the robbery. The sequence of events has prompted ongoing inquiries by law enforcement officials in the region.

In related historical context, officials note a prior case in the Irkutsk region where a person was punished by a court following a fatal incident involving a pig bite. It was disclosed that the individual had mental health issues and was declared insane in connection with that case. This past event is not directly linked to the current investigation but is cited in regional records as background information.

Authorities continue to monitor the situation and verify the facts through standard investigative procedures, including gathering testimony, examining security footage, and tracing financial transactions related to the stolen property. The aim is to establish a clear timeline and determine the motive and full scope of the crime.
