How the boy Dima Peskov is recovering. Four-year-old Dima Peskov got lost and wandered in the forest in the Urals for four days, but he was found alive

01.08.2020

4-year-old Dima Peskov alone spent 5 days in the forest. He went on an overnight camping trip with his parents. When the family laid out the tent, the father went with his son to collect wood for the fire. But soon the boy became bored. And dad let the 4-year-old child go to the tent alone. Dimka never got to her.

2000 people took part in the search for the boy. In those neighborhoods, rescuers even noticed a bear. On the fifth day, when they no longer hoped to find Dima alive, the little boy was found next to the swamps, 7 kilometers from the place of loss. The brave kid all this time ate grass and drank from the swamp so as not to die of hunger.

Rescuers feared that the child had been killed by a bear found nearby. But Dima went into the swamp, and it saved his life ()

The searcher who found a 4-year-old boy in the forest: "I disobeyed the commander and went in search of one in a different way

The spetsnaz soldier told how he managed to find the child, whom they had been looking for for 5 days (

A forest lesson for everyone else.

The entire Sverdlovsk region followed the search for 4-year-old Dima Peskov for several days. And the whole country rejoiced at his discovery. Now the boy is in intensive care unit of the CSTO # 1, nothing threatens his life. But the parents are threatened with a criminal case initiated during the search for the boy in the forest. Whether the rights of the child were violated and whether it was worth suspecting the father of the state of emergency - the situation in an exclusive interview "" was analyzed by the ombudsman for children's rights in the Sverdlovsk region Igor Morokov.

- Igor Rudolfovich, how do you assess the organization of the search for Dima Peskov?

We have been working with the Sokol detachment for a long time and have carried out a number of measures to prevent the loss of children. I have an application on my phone: when information about a missing child appears, I immediately receive an alert. In this situation it was the same. We were in touch with the detachment all the time.

This case showed that we have a huge number of caring people who are ready to help. And you can close your eyes that many arrived unprepared, people had no idea that they would have to go into the swamp. The most important thing is the impulse of the soul to help.

Although non-professionals can sometimes do much harm: trample the tracks, drive on an ATV. Adjustment is required here. And this operation showed that volunteers, the Ministry of Emergencies and the police can interact. Local authorities also showed themselves well: food and water supply were organized.

- Do you see the parents' fault in what happened?

There are hotheads who say: "The parents are to blame, let's get the parents involved, let's punish them." Here I remember a line from Vysotsky's song: "Let life condemn, let life punish!" Life has already judged them. It makes no sense to call somewhere and say that you behaved incorrectly. No commission will make such an impression as what happened to them. Parents need to be allowed to calm down. They already understood everything.

Although I can't imagine how you can send a 4-year-old kid somewhere. I had a 6-year-old grandson this weekend, well, where are you going to send him?

- At the beginning of the search, the investigators suspected the parents. Was their action correct?

We also talked with the investigators. Now there are those who are dissatisfied with their work - allegedly the parents were interrogated with passion. But this is the job of the investigators. These rules are written in blood. Unfortunately, we have had several cases when the crimes were covered by the disappearance of children. And investigators must rule out this possibility, which they did. It was the investigators who said that the parents were innocent, and all efforts should be thrown into the search.

But the investigation of the criminal case continues. Could it be reclassified as "Leaving in Danger"?

I think the case will be closed soon. Whether to change the article and blame the parents is a matter for specialists. It's hard for me to prove it. Relations between children and parents in the department of investigative bodies, police and commission on juvenile affairs. We interfere if the rights of the child are violated by state authorities, officials. If the police hadn’t left, the Emergencies Ministry didn’t do something to the end, we would have turned them on.

And about parents - people have already learned such a lesson that God forbid anyone.

- How to warn parents against such situations?

This case can be the basis for all work with parents on child safety. There seems to be a specific list of threats. But you need to understand: danger can arise completely from scratch. When a child is with you, this is a special situation.

An adult must always control everything. By the way, the fall from the windows is from the same series. Distracted, did something wrong, walked away, the child fell out. 50% of injuries to children in road accidents are the result of parental actions. They didn't fasten, they didn't put the chair. Like, why, I have great experience. And the newcomer leaves to meet you. The danger can "leave" anywhere.

The story of four-year-old Dima Peskov, who survived in the forest, did not leave indifferent, perhaps, a single resident of Sverdlovsk. Every day people bring gifts and treats to the house in the village of Reftinsky where the boy lives.

With balloons and gifts, alone and with whole families - about a hundred people come to the entrance where Dima Peskov lives. They came from different cities to arrange a real holiday for the child who survived in the forest. Even the rain did not interfere. The hero of the occasion smiles and willingly accepts gifts. It seems that Dima is already used to the attention of people. The organizers of the meeting themselves did not expect so many people wishing to visit the boy. Vladislav Knyazev admits: at first he was going to come only with friends and relatives, but the idea was supported by all the neighbors.

Vladislav Knyazev, a resident of Reftinsky: “Everyone was terribly worried about these days, they were looking, but now everything is fine, Dimas wanted to wish that he would grow up as a normal man in any case, so that everything would work out for him. I will follow you, Dimon, when you grow up. "

Natalia Kadochnikova and her family came to Reftinsky from Asbest. The trip was initiated by her daughter Galya. All these days, the girl followed the news and wanted to see Dima.

Natalya Kadochnikova, resident of Asbest: “We have worried about him all these days and still worry about him. My daughter has watched all the videos on the Internet directly, more than once, and wants to go to Dima, to Dima, to Dima ”.

The baby was ashamed to approach the hero. But other guys were not taken aback. Yulia Salyakhova went in search of Dima practically from the plane. The girl lives in Indonesia and when she flew to visit Yekaterinburg, she immediately joined the rescuers. For three days she combed the forest, and now she came personally to wish Dima good health.

Yulia Salyakhova, participant in the search operation: “The first thing I saw was consolation. My tears started flowing now, because when they found him, I was crying too. Now I shook hands with this baby with great pleasure, God grant him health, strength, fives. The kid is great, he has very strong guardian angels ”.

Gifts to the Peskov family arrive almost daily. People hope that new toys will help Dima to get distracted and forget everything that he experienced in four days in the forest.

Andrey Peskov, Dima Peskov's dad: "Well, of course, I was delighted, he played with these gifts all night yesterday, and, of course, many thanks to everyone."

Dima's story united the citizens of Sverdlovsk. True, some believe that such overprotection can harm the boy. But psychologists are sure: if everything is explained to Dima correctly, it will benefit not only him, but also other people.

Dima has a story to tell. He got lost on June 10 near the Reftinsky reservoir and wandered through the forest for four days without food or water. More than six hundred rescuers, policemen, volunteers were looking for him. On the fifth day, the bitten and exhausted child was found by the search engines of the Sokol detachment. Now Dima Peskov is completely healthy and has finally returned home.

Four-year-old Dima Peskov, who has been wandering through the woods near the Reftinskoye reservoir for four days, will be taken to the Yekaterinburg hospital by land, not by air. Earlier, a Mi-8 helicopter of the Kamensk-Uralsky airbase flew to pick up the child.

Press service of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations in the Sverdlovsk Region:

However, the helicopter still flew for the child. The pilot said that the boy would be taken to the Regional Clinical Hospital.

The child has already been evacuated from the forest. The boy's condition is assessed as grave, but nothing threatens his life.

Doctors who examined the child diagnosed him with pneumonia. Besides, little Dima is severely emaciated and bitten by ticks. In the near future the child is to be delivered by helicopter to one of the hospitals in Yekaterinburg.

According to them, the son does not speak, but he understands what is being said to him.

Alfia, mother of Dima Peskov:

Dima's dad thanked everyone who helped to find his son. The man told who and how found his child.

Andrey Peskov, Dima's dad:

“The investigators suspected that I had killed him, buried him,” said Andrei Peskov. The man declined to comment further. The mother and father refused to confirm the information that the investigators put pressure on them.

Recall that for four days, while they were looking for the boy, the security forces checked the boy's parents on a lie detector. The mother of the missing child works as a junior teacher in a kindergarten. The father has several convictions. The police were also alarmed by the fact that the mother, after the disappearance of the child, soon left, citing the fact that she became cold. Only the father remained in place. However, the polygraph confirmed that the boy's dad was really telling the truth.

Investigators continue to investigate the criminal case opened into the disappearance of four-year-old Dima.

Press service of the Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation for the Sverdlovsk Region:

Recall that Dima Peskov was lost on June 10. He came to nature with his parents, who pitched a tent in the forest. The boy went with his dad to get firewood, but after a while he asked to go to the tent and went there alone. Despite the relatively short distance - about ten meters, the child got lost. Late in the evening of June 13, rescuers managed to find fresh tracks of the boy. And this morning - himself.
