As his colleague Vladimir Noskov reported, at about 14:00 men in camouflage with the inscription “Self-Defense” grabbed Alexander Gaiduk at the entrance of his house and took him to an unknown direction. According to preliminary information, this group of fighters has nothing to do with the local Self-Defense, but arrived from Dnepropetrovsk.
“For several hours, law enforcement officers (primarily the head of the regional police, Viktor Olkhovsky) answered journalists’ questions that they had no information about this incident. However, then the GUSBU in the Zaporozhye region recognized the fact that Gaiduk was in the “office” and stated that he allegedly voluntarily came to the Service on call,” Noskov wrote on his Facebook page.
However, according to him, neither the lawyer nor his colleagues could get to the journalist. “It became known that the journalist was beaten during his arrest. According to preliminary information, a random witness was beaten and kidnapped along with Gaiduk,” Noskov said.
As PolitNavigator reported, on Tuesday, during a meeting of the Verkhovna Rada, the head of the Petro Poroshenko Bloc faction, deputy Yuriy Lutsenko, called on the SBU to begin a purge of unwanted media outlets.
“The neo-imperialists are betting on preparing the internal disorganization of the Ukrainian state. We have recently seen that the deadly bacilli of separatism, which brought a third of the Ukrainian Donbass to disaster, are beginning to try to sow in other areas.
In this regard, the “Petro Poroshenko Faction Bloc” demands that the special services repulse anti-state elements and spies, and the fifth column of the Kremlin. We also demand an end to the bacchanalia of anti-Ukrainian separatism in certain media, which are fed from abroad and freely distributed in millions of copies throughout Ukraine,” Lutsenko said.
