IHM Discussion
Lukko’s update provides a clear but deliberately limited account of Moisanen’s situation. It confirms that he is receiving hospital care and identifies the circumstances of the incident, while leaving all further medical detail private. The club has also made clear that its immediate focus is supporting Moisanen and those close to him.
