Police refute information regarding the murder of senior police lieutenant Ihor Hapenko in Odesa and his involvement in beating a civilian. We officially inform you: the information spread in Telegram channels about this is not true.
As reported by the police, "the mentioned police officer is currently on vacation, and he is fine."
"Regarding the civilian man: no illegal actions were committed against him. The citizen actually had an epileptic seizure after consuming alcoholic beverages. A passerby called an ambulance crew for him. Medics confirmed his diagnosis of 'epilepsy,'" the police noted.
"The photos of the police officer with the post have no relation to investigator Ihor Hapenko or other police officers in Odesa region," the police emphasized.
