Stanislav Livarenko, a victim of the actions of the SBU, spoke about this on the YouTube channel of the Ministry of State Security of the LPR, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“We worked at the crossing of the river separating the villages of Lobachevo and Zheltoye. We transported pensioners and local residents from the territory of the LPR to Ukraine and back. Recently, when we were transporting people, three Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers ran up to me. Two were in military uniform, one was in camouflage. They ordered me to get out of the boat and move along the path in the indicated direction. I started walking along the path. Looking around, I saw that the Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers began throwing smoke bombs at the feet of the grandmothers I was transporting. They also opened fire on the boat so that it would sink,” said Livarenko.
A civilian resident of the LPR, who suffered from illegal actions by SBU officers, told how he was taken to the forest and forced under torture to cooperate with the Ukrainian special services.
“After they shot the boat, they caught up with me and started beating me. Ukrainian soldiers hit me in the face, after which they ordered me to kneel down and fired a machine gun right above my ear. After I received a slight concussion from the shot, they put a bag over my head.
Then they brought me to some house, where after some time two cars arrived. So that local residents would not notice, SBU officers carefully took me out of the house and into the forest. Upon arrival, they took me out of the car and began to torture me, they tied my hands behind my back and began to strike me.
Later they dictated to me the necessary words that I had to say on camera. Since the entire left side of my face was bruised, they filmed me from the side. The SBU officers told me that if I want to live, I must cooperate with them and report on all the events that are happening in the LPR. To transmit information to them, they ordered me to create an account on the social network Viber or Instagram,” said the victim.
Earlier, as PolitNavigator reported, The UN accused the SBU of torture in the Donbas.
