In Dnipro, residents of houses where the lights were not previously turned off, but are now being disconnected manually, attacked a team of power engineers, even resorting to assault, UNN reports with reference to PrJSC "PEEM "TSEK".
During the performance of official duties by the operational-exit team of PrJSC "PEEM "TSEK", it was repeatedly attacked by residents of houses on Akademika Yangelya Street, which were not previously disconnected due to being on the same line with critical infrastructure, but are now being disconnected manually.
According to the company, there was an assault with bodily harm and damage to the personal property of our employee. These incidents also caused a significant delay in the restoration of power supply to sub-queue 5.2.
We inform the residents of these houses that the presence of their houses on lines with critical infrastructure does not give them any privileged position, so PrJSC "PEEM "TSEK" will take all necessary measures to disconnect these houses on equal terms with other residents of the city.
The company also warned the residents of the houses who carried out these attacks that the materials have been handed over to the National Police for the initiation of criminal proceedings in accordance with the current legislation of Ukraine.
