At the request of SBI investigators, the Fortetsia District Court of Kropyvnytskyi took into custody without the possibility of bail two servicemen of the medical company of the "Skelya" regiment, who are suspected of torturing their brothers-in-arms
Context
Earlier, SBI officers, with the assistance of the military unit's command, notified them of suspicion of torture and violation of statutory rules of relations between servicemen, accompanied by beatings and abuse of several individuals.
In May 2026, two servicemen were discharged from the hospital due to violations of the established regime and sent to the medical company of the unit. After that, the suspects decided to "punish" them on their own for disciplinary violations.
They inflicted numerous blows on the victims, then locked them in an outbuilding, where they continued the abuse.
One of the servicemen lost consciousness. He was hospitalized with a traumatic brain injury, a nasal bone fracture, and other bodily injuries.
The other victim was illegally detained for almost another day. He was later also taken to the hospital with a traumatic brain injury, numerous bruises, and hematomas.
Both servicemen have been notified of suspicion under Part 2 of Article 127 and Part 3 of Article 406 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
The sanctions of the articles provide for up to 10 years of imprisonment.
The pre-trial investigation is ongoing.
Reminder
The State Bureau of Investigation notified two servicemen of the "Skelya" regiment of suspicion for cruel treatment of their brothers-in-arms.
