Re: Ukraine: Cop Beaten and Shot During Traffic Stop
Two cops checking out the back of the car when the driver and passenger can do whatever they want like grabbing a gun. Not smart tactics. The Vinnytsia Specialized Prosecutor's Office for the Defense of the Southern Region is checking the involvement of two servicemen in the murder of a policeman. The Office of the Prosecutor General reported this. Currently, the scene of the incident has been inspected and material evidence has been seized. According to the National Police, the person who died during the night attack was 20-year-old Maxim Zaretsky. Since 2021, he has studied at the National Academy of Internal Affairs and served in the patrol police response sector for a year and a half. Maxim was the only son of his parents. Captain Maxim Sharapansky, was wounded. The National Police of Ukraine or the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not report anything about the capture of the attackers. It is known that they are being searched throughout the country and a case has already been opened under Criminal Code 348 (attack on the life of a law enforcement officer). The men face up to life imprisonment. The original version of the post said that two of the attackers had previously served in the 28th Brigade, but had nothing to do with it for more than a year. The command of the Southern Defense Forces and the 28th Brigade is assisting the investigation as much as possible in catching the attackers. The head of the Odessa region's police department, Sergei Bratchuk, noted that the online discussion about the murder of a policeman in the Vinnytsia region is "dangerous" and is being "fueled by Russian bots." “The opinion is being spread across the network that it seems that “bad police officers are ‘harassing’ good military men.” We are recording two harmful positions at once: the military cannot withstand pressure from the bad police; Ukrainian defenders are dangerous. The level of discussion is raised by Russian bots playing for both teams.” , writes Bratchuk. He noted that the goal of Russian bots is to undermine trust in the Ukrainian Armed Forces and law enforcement officers, as well as to split Ukrainians. Bratchuk asks Ukrainians not to be manipulated online. |
