When medics arrived at the local police station, the drummer was in a coma. Resuscitation did not help him.
Pestova and a few of his friends were detained on September 4, during a rehearsal in the garage on suspicion of drug use and possession.
Fellow musicians said that police officers hit him several times on the head, but the law enforcement officials stressed that no one beat Pestova.
