Ternopil military personnel suspected of torture: three of them have been given a preventive measure – arrest
In Ternopil, a preventive measure could not be established for three out of six military personnel detained on suspicion of kidnapping and torturing people.
According to local media reports, three of the six accused requested to replace the state attorney during the session. The consideration of measures for them was postponed until the next day. The other three were given a preventive measure in the form of detention.
Police data indicate that the military personnel took the victims out of the city, beat them, and demanded money or valuable items. For example, a 27-year-old resident of Ternopil had his KIA car taken and used for the perpetrators’ own purposes.
One active-duty serviceman, who was under medical treatment, was forcibly placed into a minibus by the offenders and taken to an unknown location. He was beaten, threatened with a weapon, and demanded to pay 50,000 hryvnias for his release.
Another resident of Ternopil was forcibly dragged into a minibus with the use of tear gas and taken out of the city. There, he was stripped, doused with a flammable substance, and forced to run in front of a vehicle. He was later beaten and held for three days in inhumane conditions.
According to Zubanenko, the head of the National Police in the Ternopil region, law enforcement officers are currently working with the victims and suggest that there might be other victims.
