The Narodna Pravda YouTube channel posted a video showing members of the Bihus.Info team allegedly using illegal substances.
The founder of the project, Denys Bihus, reacted to the video, saying that the cameramen were not journalists, but cameramen, and assured that such actions would result in tough personnel changes.
Subsequently, the SBU began to establish the circumstances of the illegal wiretapping and filming and searched the complex where the Bihus.Info team members were being surveilled, seizing hard drives and video recordings.
