Kyiv's Pechersk Court will consider a motion for a preventive measure against MP Yevhen Shevchenko, who is suspected of treason. The MP had previously called on Zelenskyy to negotiate with Putin and provided a fake ID to the GUR.

Tomorrow, on November 15, the Pechersk District Court of Kyiv plans to consider a motion to impose a preventive measure on MP Yevhen Shevchenko, who is suspected of harming Ukraine's defense capabilities and information security.  The Prosecutor General's Office informed the journalist of UNN.

"A measure of restraint will be imposed on the MP tomorrow," the PGO said.

The OGP also noted that the Pechersk District Court of Kyiv will consider the motion for a preventive measure.

Addendum

The People's Deputy of Ukraine Yevhen Shevchenko was served a notice of suspicion of high treason.

Prosecutors of the Prosecutor General's Office handed the suspect a request for a  preventive measure in the form of detention.

DIU representative Andriy Yusov statedthat MP Yevhen Shevchenko, who called on President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to start a dialogue with Russia, is not an employee of the Main Intelligence Directorate.

On November 7, MP Shevchenko called on the President of Ukraine to negotiate with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin on his Telegram channel.

Shevchenko also called for the return of MPs suspected of treason to the session hall.

In 2022, Shevchenko presented a certificate from the Defense Intelligence of Ukraine as proof that he was indeed serving in the intelligence service.

The head of the President's Office, Andriy Yermak, responded to the MP, noting that "some MPs seem to be confused about national security, national interests and the future of the country.

"If in their minds national interests = Ukraine's defeat, then they are making a big mistake in the interests of Russia. Ukraine's victory plan, the Peace Formula, is the path to justice," Yermak said.
