Russian curler Anna Sidorova named the diagnosis of Olympic figure skating champion Dmitry Solovyov, who was beaten in Moscow. She is quoted by the Telegram channel of the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC).
“Dima has a severe head injury. Moreover, this is not just a concussion – there is a brain hematoma, ”the skater's girl shared. According to the athlete, the doctors recommended to closely monitor the hematoma, since it is not known how it will behave further.
Earlier, Sidorova clarified that Solovyov would have to spend at least ten days in the hospital. She added that she was happy about the publicity that the story received. “Other people should see in this example that this is not and should not be done,” said the curler.
The Olympic champion fell victim to an attack on December 21 when he stood up for his girlfriend. The attackers were detained, and the victim himself was hospitalized with a head injury. The skater is in the neurosurgical department of the Botkin Hospital. The moment of the attack was captured by a video surveillance camera.
Soloviev performed in ice dancing with Ekaterina Bobrova. Together they became 2014 Olympic champions and 2018 Olympic silver medalists in team competition.
