They started beating up the young man before the eyes of his fellow patients. Vintsuk Vyachorka told that for about three minutes he heard on the phone his son being beaten up. He heard Franak shouting it hurts, and asked for a chance to go to the car himself. He also heard that an officer said that it was executing an order.

Vintsuk Vyachorka told that after that Franak was forcibly dragged out of the ward, and then he was thrown into the police car. Security service officers in a jeep were driving in front of them.

Doctors of the hospital haven’t answered whether the results of the medical examination are read. The young man was said that he would learn everything in the military enlistment office. As said by Franak Vyachorka, physicians haven’t carried out check-up of his eyesight, though he had been given a determent because of an eye surgery. An orthopedist and cardiologist haven’t checked him up yet.
