Kozlovichi Mental Asylum
This article needs additional citations for verification. (January 2021) |
The Kozlovichi Mental Asylum was a psychiatric institution located in Randilovshchina, near Kozlovichi in Grodno Province, Belarus. The asylum was housed in a wooden building constructed in 1905. Tragically, on October 12, 2003, a fire broke out and destroyed the building, resulting in the death of thirty patients.
The cause of the fire was initially attributed to a patient with a history of pyromania, who had previously attempted to set fire to the building. However, government investigators also considered staff carelessness as a possible cause. Some staff members, who were sleeping in a separate building on the campus, attempted to extinguish the fire and rescue patients before calling the fire department.
