04.09.2025
Under the procedural supervision of the Prosecutor General's Office, the pre-trial investigation was completed and indictments were sent to trial against all 14 persons, including 9 officers of the State Institution “Kyiv Detention Center” and 5 prisoners, including the so-called «watcher».
According to the materials of the pre-trial investigation, in December 2024, a conflict arose between the prisoners. «Watcher», along with other accused prisoners, inflicted numerous injuries on the victim, from which he later died.
Their actions are qualified under part 2 of Art. 121 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (intentional serious bodily injury that caused the death of the victim), the indictment was sent to court.
The investigation also established that the officers of the institution, knowing about the beating and understanding the violations committed on their part, tried to hide the crime. They forged documents about the victim's health and placed him into a punishment cell, allegedly for violating the regime. At the same time, medical assistance was not provided to the victim in a timely manner. This led to a dramatic deterioration in his health. It was not until the next day that the prisoner was taken to the hospital, where he died.
Indictments against employees of State Institution «Kyiv detention center» are referred to the court under part 3 of Art. 365, part 3 of Art. 367, part 3 of Art. 135, part 2 of Art. 139, part 1 of Art. 366 and part 1 of Art. 358 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
Pre-trial investigation and operational support were carried out by SBI officers.
