Sad news

It wouldn't surprise me if it was drugged related.
That's somewhat the reason why Vader kicked him out.
They said something like, "due to addictions that he couldn't control & that he's getting help for." Something like that.

Odszedł nasz Przyjaciel...
Our Friend passed away...

Thats the only thing on their website, it is true and that is horrible.
 
Polish death metallers VADER have posted the following message on their official web site:

"This day we said last time goodbye to our friend and great musician — Krzysztof 'Docent' Raczkowski. The funeral took place in his hometown Korsze near Olsztyn. We accompanied him on his last journey with great sadness, pain and sorrow flowing from our hearts. After the tragedy we've realized how precious gift life is. Especially now, when we should assume some responsibility for his premature death, shouldn't we?... Doc — you will stay forever in our hearts, thoughts and acts."

In a March 2005 statement announcing Doc's departure from the group, VADER frontman Peter said, "Doc pretty hard tried to 'fight' against his weaknesses, which were troubles for all of us. Finaly he had not prevailed over that battle... All in all, he attempted. . . VADER today is not just a friendship anymore — it's our life with armies of man involved in music, releases and — first of all — fans waiting for shows or new albums... This is a high responsibility, not too many know about. If a person, even the most talented one, cannot stand it — [he] has to leave... That was Doc's decision as well."

In an April 2005 interview with AbrasiveRock.com, VADER guitarist Mauser elaborated on Doc's "weaknesses," stating, "He had a problem with alcohol and this is the problem. Maybe in the future, if he will be alright, he may be back in the band. Maybe someday. We will see what happens."
