Sindija Bokāne: jailed Niks fears their relationship will not survive
On the 360TV show “Slavenības. Bez filtra”, Sindija Bokāne described how her partner Niks Endziņš is coping in prison. She says he hopes to appeal his sentence but fears she will walk away.
In an appearance on “Slavenības. Bez filtra” (“Celebrities. Unfiltered”), a show on the Latvian channel 360TV, Sindija Bokāne spoke with her friend Kristiāna about her partner Niks Endziņš, who is currently in prison. The clip was published on 10 November.
According to Sindija, the couple can communicate only through the prison payphone. Even so, she tries to keep track of Niks's daily life and state of mind.
She says Niks is trying to stay optimistic and is convinced that he will manage to appeal the sentence and soon return to freedom. Behind that determination, however, lies insecurity: he is afraid that his partner will not endure the ordeal and will leave him at some point.
“He is terribly afraid that I will leave, that I will turn my back. I tell him: I am not going anywhere,” Sindija said.
She understands that imprisonment has put Niks in a situation where he can no longer control what is happening. Fear about the future of their relationship is therefore only one of the difficulties he has to live with.
The source material does not specify what Niks Endziņš was convicted of or what sentence he received.
