"The indictment against the employee of the State Protection Department has been submitted to court. SBI officers completed the pre-trial investigation into the tragedy at the funicular station in Kyiv, after which the defense had time to familiarize themselves with the case file," the statement said.
The SBI stated that on April 7, a parole officer, while under the influence of alcohol and drugs, began to harass passengers, including minors, in a funicular car for no reason. After leaving the car, the policeman approached the teenager and pushed him through the window. The boy fell, smashed his head against the glass, and received a fatal cut to his neck. The minor died at the scene.
The detainee was immediately suspended from his duties. His command provided full assistance in conducting urgent investigative actions.
"During the investigation, the Bureau's investigators found that the deprivation of life of the minor was committed for hooliganism, and therefore reclassified the suspicion to Part 2 of Article 115 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, which provides for life imprisonment," the SBI informs.
