An attempt to help children to buy housing ended tragically.

A couple from Zhlobin took a loan to help children build an apartment. At first, the family was coping with the loan, however, the situation subsequently deteriorated: payments including the interest exceeded the earnings of the family, gomel.today writes.

The amount of bank loan including the interest exceeded 120 million in non-denominated rubles (12 thousand denominated rubles).

As a result, the husband, while in a state of intoxication, poured gasoline over himself and set himself on fire. He was taken to a hospital with 80% of the body burnt, doctors tried to save his life for several days, however, the attempts were unsuccessful - the man died.
