During the court hearing, a dozen friends and sympathizers of Bandera gathered in front of the building and accused the court of bias and rendering a verdict in favor of the DPR. In their hands they had posters “Free Bandera”, “Today they imprison my friends - tomorrow they will imprison you”, “A patriot is not a criminal.” Simonik’s colleagues insist that he is not involved in crimes and complain that the former fighter was put in the same cell with the “separatists.”
“Today he is in a Mariupol prison, sharing a cell with the separatists. It’s very strange how a former police officer, a patriot, can be in the same cell with the separatists. And we can only imagine how he exists and survives there,” said the commander of the Tornado battalion, Ruslan Onishchenko.
Let us remind you that earlier the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Arseniy Avakov disbanded the special purpose company “Tornado” of the Main Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine in the Luhansk region, which are accused of robbery, illegal imprisonment, torture, rape and murder of local residents under the leadership of the five-time convicted battalion commander Ruslan Onishchenko.
