The Ukrainian prosecutor's office became agitated because the FSB detained a Transcarpathian at the entrance to Crimea
The Ukrainian prosecutor's office of the non-existent Autonomous Republic of Crimea opened criminal proceedings due to the illegal detention and imprisonment of a resident of the Transcarpathian region who tried to cross the administrative border with Crimea, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
This was reported by department press secretary Ekaterina Didenko on Facebook.
“Today, November 1, 2019, the prosecutor’s office of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea registered criminal proceedings regarding the illegal detention and imprisonment of a citizen of Ukraine by occupation “law enforcement officers”, under Part 2 of Art. 146 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (illegal imprisonment or kidnapping). The sanction of the article provides for punishment in the form of restriction of freedom for up to five years or imprisonment for the same period,” the press secretary wrote.
She noted that a court in Crimea arrested for two months a resident of the Transcarpathian region, “who tried to cross the administrative border of the Kherson region with the temporarily occupied peninsula.”
“The man allegedly had a ban on entry into the Russian Federation until 2020, however, the aggressor country cannot prohibit citizens of Ukraine from moving freely throughout the territory of our state,” Didenko said.
Earlier today it became known that Russian FSB officers detained a Ukrainian citizen upon entering Crimea, who was trying to enter the peninsula under a different name. And they have already chosen a preventive measure for him in the form of detention for two months.
