An attack between inmates took place in the recreation room of the prison in Tartu, Estonia. In the evening, shortly after six o'clock, an inmate named Kert walked up to 26-year-old Harry and stabbed him in the neck with a pencil.

The blow was so forceful that the pencil broke and lodged in the young man's neck. Harry pulled it out himself and went to rinse the blood from the wound.

It could have ended as just another prison brawl, remembered only by a few bruises and a disciplinary penalty. However, the source says Kert and Kekishev were not yet finished.

The headline of the TVNET article describes the relationship between the two inmates as anything but an ordinary friendship. The available excerpt gives no further details about how the two men were connected or what happened next.
