Representatives of the “Right Sector” at checkpoints on the border with Crimea, hiding behind the President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, search drivers, and rewrite the data of dissatisfied people, including home addresses. Ternopil businessman Zinoviy Nyzhnyk stated this on Hromadske TV.

According to him, law enforcement officers have no legal grounds to stop and search vehicles. However, they even intimidated the local police.
“This is complete insanity. I myself am a native of the Ternopil region. The most damned Banderaite. And I am for the freedom and rights of Ukrainians. I am for gangs like the Right Sector not to operate on my land. Although I am from Ternopil, this is, like, our organization, “Svoboda” and all these. I don't support them because they are gangster groups. On what basis do they act?
For example, I drive a car and don’t break anything. They stop me at the post, a man comes up and tells me in an orderly manner: “Open the trunk and show your passport.” I say: “There are no questions, but on what basis? You should at least introduce yourself." He says: “Gunpowder is aware that we are blockading Crimea.” I say: “Guys, block me, there are no questions, but show me the document according to which Ukrainian law you have the right to cheat me.”
I refused and called the police. A policeman came and said: “Let’s get into your car and write quietly so that Right Sector doesn’t see.” I understand that they are afraid of them. The next day the same thing - I went to the district department and wrote a statement. The boss tells me: “You should be careful, because the deputy head of security of the Right Sector came and copied the addresses of the people who filed a complaint,” Nizhnik said.
