“Yet I regret it!” ⟩ Drinking vodka led the Mooste man to kill an acquaintance of his

In May 2023, a monstrous massacre took place in the town of Mooste, Põlva County, where a man who had been drinking alcohol beat to death a long-time acquaintance of his who was sitting calmly in an armchair. He has been charged with a crime Peter Shmutov, whose guilt was proven and the court sentenced him to years in prison. The murdered man’s half-sister was also present in the courtroom. “He worked as a tractor driver, he was clean and went to work, but from one moment to the next his life went downhill,” she told Elu24, remembering her half-brother.

On January 12, at lunchtime, the Tartu County Court held a hearing on the Peeter Šmutov case. The man who lived in a block of flats in Mooste, who turns 67 in early February, has been in prison since May last year, when he was arrested on suspicion of murdering a 56-year-old man.
