According to the official version, he had hanged himself. One week later, about eight thousand people witnessed an ecumenical mass, as a silent protest against the military regime. Three years later, the coroner responsible confessed that he had signed the autopsy document without having examined the corpse. In the same year, the Federal Justice Department was held responsible for illegal imprisonment, torture and death of the journalist. In 2004, two unedited photos of Vladimir, naked in a cell just before his death, were published in a journal. His widow declared that these pictures were not showing her late husband. Only in 2013, Herzog’s family received a new death certificate, in which the true cause of death was mentioned.
