“Four days have passed since that damned Monday. I did not know what to say, and now I do not know. I do not know how and with what words to ask for forgiveness from the family of Sergei Zakharov. But I still ask, although I know that they will not forgive, ”said Efremov.

He also said that he was ready to help them "by all means if they accept", adding that it was "not an attempt to pay off, but an attempt to redeem."

“Of course, I have no forgiveness from my wife, from my children, and from all those who believed in me. In general, it’s unforgivable to drive behind the wheel when an innocent person, a good man, my peer dies as a result, ”the actor emphasized.

Efremov also admitted that he did not understand “how to live on,” but added that he was not going to “otmazyvatsya” with the help of “some of his connections or acquaintances.”

“Everyone saw everything, and I saw it when I slept and walked away from the shock ... this is not a movie, you can’t rewind anything. The end, there is no longer any Efremov, I betrayed everyone, excuse me, please, ”he concluded.

On June 11, in the Ryazan region, the funeral of Sergei Zakharov, who died as a result of an accident with the participation of Efremov, was held.

On the evening of June 8, a car driven by Efremov drove into the oncoming lane on Smolenskaya Square in Moscow and crashed into a van. The driver of the van died in the hospital.

An examination found that Efremov was driving while intoxicated.

The Tagansky court of Moscow sent Efremov under house arrest.
