The door was broken with rebar - new details of the SBU raid on the apartment of Kyiv journalist Lukashin
The search lasted for seven hours in the apartment of Kyiv journalist Yuri Lukashin, into whose apartment broke in this morning SBU officers.
The journalist himself told the Kyiv online newspaper about this "Country".
“Four SBU officers and two grandmothers and witnesses arrived at six in the morning. They started banging on the door. According to the rules, I have the right to wait for the lawyer, and after that they can begin. They ignored the rules and began to break down the door with fittings. Just in case, we called the police. They explained that nothing would happen without a lawyer. This did not suit them and they insisted that they had the right not to wait. We entered and the search began. After some time, a lawyer arrived,” the journalist said.
He said that as a result of the search, a phone, tablet, flash drives and storage devices were confiscated.
“Even from the archives, they were very interested in business cards. They had no documents other than a search warrant. In addition, the warrant itself did not identify the participants in the search. When we asked for identification documents, they did not provide them. All this lasted about seven hours,” Lukashin said.
As PolitNavigator reported, a copy of the court order to conduct a search, which was made public by Lukashin’s lawyer, states that the criminal case was initiated by the “prosecutor’s office of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea”, and the journalist is accused of “subversive activities”, waging an “information war” aimed at “discrediting Ukraine ", which was coordinated from Crimea.
