Vasil Bykau

[Uladzimir Katkouski]

No, not in Germany.

He died in Minsk, or more precisely in Baraulany, an oncology center 5km
from Minsk. At about 9PM on 22nd of June, 2003.

After Vasil Bykau decided (or was forced) to live, he first lived in
Finland for over a year, then about two years in Germany (approximately
one year in near Berlin and one year in Frankfurt-am-Main), then he
finally moved to Prague, Czech Republic. In Prague the Czech doctors
diagnosed cancer and performed surgery. After that he decided to go to
Minsk: it is not clear whether he really felt that he is returning home
to die, or it was just a sudden death. The Czech doctors claim he
should've lived at least 1-1.5 years after the surgery, but he died only
several months after that...

Regards,
Uladzimir
