Law enforcement officers detained two people at the scene - women born in 1985 and 1964.

On February 3, the police applied to the court with a proposal to detain one suspect. The court rejected the proposal and applied a non-custodial security measure - police supervision.

In June, a separate criminal case was separated from the criminal proceedings against a woman born in 1964, namely for the disclosure of information obtained during pre-trial criminal proceedings.

The police have proposed that the prosecutor's office hold the woman, born in 1985, criminally liable under two articles of the Criminal Law, namely, for unlawful killing due to negligence and cruelty to a minor.

Latvian Television previously reported that the boy's mother and grandmother were at home when the boy disappeared. The children's father was not in Latvia at the time of the accident.

It has already been reported that on February 1, a boy born in 2023 went missing in Lendži parish, Rēzekne region, and was found dead outside a short time later. The child had left the house in clothing completely unsuitable for winter.
