This was reported on November 9 by "Ukrainska Pravda" citing the spokesperson of the Kyiv regional prosecutor's office, Yulia Koltak.
The new suspect is a man born in 2004. According to the investigation, during the unrest on November 2, he was near a service bus carrying servicemen of the National Guard of Ukraine.
Investigators claim that the man urged those present to overturn the bus and also personally participated in attempts to damage the vehicle. In particular, together with others, he rocked the bus and kicked its body.
The man was charged on November 7 under Part 1 of Article 114-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine – obstructing the lawful activities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other military formations during a special period. The sanction of the article provides for five to eight years of imprisonment.
A hearing on the selection of a pre-trial restriction for the suspect is scheduled for November 9. The prosecutor's office will request detention without the possibility of bail. As of the time of the report, the court's decision was not yet known.
According to the prosecutor's office spokesperson, a total of six people have now been charged in the proceedings. Courts have imposed pre-trial restrictions on five of them.
Recall that on November 6, the Solomianskyi District Court of Kyiv imposed a pre-trial restriction on the fourth suspect, Valeriia Ladyka. She was detained for 59 days with the possibility of bail in the amount of 66,000 hryvnias.
The clashes in Petropavlivska Borschahivka occurred on November 2 after the spread of unconfirmed reports on social media about the alleged illegal detention of people in a building used for temporary accommodation of National Guard servicemen.
The pre-trial investigation is ongoing. The guilt of the suspects must be established by the court.
