    The Suslov problem considers the motion of a rigid body with a fixed point in constant gravity field with an additional nonholonomic constraint that the angular velocity is orthogonal to some fixed vector in the body. The authors study a reduction of this problem proposed by V. V. Kozlov and, using the Ziglin-Morales-Ramis theory, prove that this system admits an additional meromorphic first integral only in one already known case.
