“All three defendants – a senior sergeant, a sergeant and a junior sergeant – are new to the police, since they all came to work there in the summer of this year, and committed a brutal crime on the evening of September 30 in Kharkov on one of the city streets,” the prosecutor’s office said.
“Gavrilenko is 46 years old. He is a resident of the village of Kozachaya Lopan, Dergachevsky district in the Kharkov region, unemployed.
