Juvenile prosecutors of the Vyshhorod District Prosecutor's Office have sent an indictment to the court in a case concerning a crime against the sexual freedom and inviolability of a minor
Details
The investigation established that the family lived in the Vyshhorod district. The mother and her cohabitant were not officially employed anywhere. However, the family was not registered with authorized services.
For several months, the man systematically raped the child, and the mother not only knew about it but also helped conceal the crime. The woman forced her daughter to remain silent, intimidated her, and followed her cohabitant's instructions
In addition, the woman took intimate photographs of her daughter, which she gave to the man to satisfy his sexual needs.
The crime became known when the cohabitant beat the woman, and she immediately contacted the police. At that moment, the girl told law enforcement officers about the violence she had been experiencing for a long time.
Add
The actions of the accused are qualified under Part 2 of Article 28, Part 6 of Article 152, Part 4 of Article 153, Part 2 of Article 156, and Part 4 of Article 301-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine - rape and sexual violence against a minor child, committed by a group of persons.
Both have been taken into custody. The prosecution will insist on the harshest possible punishment for the crime against the child.
Recall
Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko initiated the need to introduce an alternative-free punishment in the form of life imprisonment for particularly serious crimes against children. He appealed to the Verkhovna Rada's law enforcement committee with a proposal to support the relevant initiative and introduce such punishment for the murder and rape of children.
Today, life imprisonment is provided for in exceptional cases; mostly, it refers to a punishment of 15 years in prison, sometimes with the possibility of reducing the term of imprisonment.
It should be added that the prosecution is actively seeking the imposition of the maximum severe sentence - life imprisonment.
Statistics
