Nikass Safronov's Son Held 'Hostage' in Turkish Hotel

The son of Russian contemporary artist Nikas Safronov, Luka Zatvrakin, has been 'held hostage' in a Turkish hotel after breaking a children's swimming pool, according to Собеседник.

Nikas Safronov stated that the hotel refuses to release his son until he compensates for the damage, which has been estimated at $19,000. Following the incident, Zatvrakin is already recovering, Safronov said.

“The injuries are improving, time is needed for recovery, his legs are still swollen, but they no longer hurt,” the artist remarked.

It is noteworthy that Zatvrakin, who weighs about 250 kg, jumped into a children's pool that is 1.5 meters deep, breaking the pool and injuring his legs.
