Stakhiv's lawyer, Mikhail Magarsky, believes that the suspicion is unfounded and asked to cancel the decision of the Galician court and leave the suspect without a preventive measure.

Their request to the Security Service of Ukraine and the prosecutor's office to impose a preventive measure on me is unfounded, fabricated and generally improper

- Stakhiv said.

In particular, one of Stakhiv's lawyers stated that at the address disclosed by his client, the TCC was located in 2022, and now it is not there.

In his turn, prosecutor Oleh Telefanko insisted on leaving the measure of restraint unchanged. According to him, on January 21, the suspect Stakhiv published information about the location of the military unit. The video he posted on the Internet also shows signs that can be used to determine the location of this military unit.

As a result, the court sided with the prosecution and did not mitigate the measure of restraint. In particular, the judge ruled to uphold the decision of October 2, namely, to keep him in custody without bail until November 30
