In the Ukrainian capital, an unknown person relieved himself directly on the portraits of dead Maidan militants in the center of the capital.
A video of the incident was published by the Kyiv Operational community, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
The video shows how a drunk man relieves himself in the alley of the “Heavenly Hundred Heroes” and leaves untouched, despite the fact that there were people on the Maidan at that time. A search for the hooligan has already been announced on social networks, and the capital police have also opened a criminal case.
“Law enforcement officers are looking for persons involved in this event and, as part of the pre-trial investigation, are establishing all the circumstances of the incident... Law enforcement officers interviewed possible witnesses to the incident and carefully examined the crime scene. The Investigation Department of the Pechersk Police Department is investigating criminal proceedings under Part 1 of Art. 296 (hooliganism) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The sanction of the article provides for up to five years in prison.
The police are carrying out a set of operational-search measures to establish the identity of the offender and bring him to justice,” the Kyiv police said in a statement.
