Details
As noted by the border guard service, the man allegedly had no legal grounds for crossing the border – he was not going to undergo border and customs control and tried to break through the checkpoint at high speed.
Border guards detained the man: administrative protocols were drawn up against him, and he, along with the motorcycle, was handed over to representatives of the National Police.
A video of the man's detention appeared online.
If the court finds the detainee guilty, he could face punishment under Article 332-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (Illegal crossing of the state border of Ukraine). The sanction of the article provides for three to eight years of imprisonment.
