The court sent the second suspect in the attack on a female volunteer in Kyiv under night house arrest for 60 days. A 70-year-old man should be at home from 10:00 p.m. to 06:00 a.m.
This was reported by the Prosecutorʼs Office of Kyiv.
The suspect asked the court not to place him under 24-hour arrest, since, according to him, he lives alone and has to leave the house to go to the store.
The second attacker (from the left) denies hitting the volunteer
In court, he insisted that he did not use force on the girl, but tried to break up her and his friend, and "he does not hit women at all."
At the same time, the victim wrote on Instagram that it was this man who hit her in the face during the conflict.
- In early June, volunteer Nataliia posted a video on Instagram in which two men mocked her when she said she did not understand the Russian language. It happened near the "Kurenivka" train stop. One of them said that "Russians will come here soon" and rape the girl. The men threatened her and also showed contempt for Ukrainians in general. After that, they hit her several times and tried to knock out her phone.
- One of the attackers, 73-year-old Viktor Salyuk, was detained on June 5, after the situation was publicized on social networks. On June 7, he was sent under 24-hour house arrest.
