Details
"On March 4, 2025, the preventive measure in the form of detention expires for the accused Zinchenko, while the criminal proceedings are at the stage of examination of evidence, and it is impossible to complete the trial by this date for objective reasons, given the volume of materials to be examined. Therefore, I have filed a motion to extend the measure of restraint in the form of detention," the prosecutor said.
By a court decision, the detention was extended until April 24, 2024.
The next court hearings are scheduled for March 10 and 13.
