The invaders gave Ukraine the body of a British volunteer with traces of torture. Argued that he died "from stress"

According to preliminary data, in April 2022 a foreign volunteer, who evacuated civilians in the territory of Zaporizhzhya region, illegally captured Russian invaders and transported to a temporarily occupied territory in Donetsk region. Video Day in July 2022 The invaders said the volunteer died "as a result of illness and stress" (terrorists of the Pseudo -republic of DNR accused him of alleged "mercenary").

After a month and a half of negotiations, the terrorist country returned his body to the territory controlled by Ukraine. There are traces on the body of the deceased that may indicate ill -treatment, which can be a true cause of death, Kosin emphasized. "The body transferred by the aggressor country was stored in improper conditions and mutilated, so the real causes of death will be established after the forensic examination," the Prosecutor General added.

The investigation of the SBU's Chief Investigative Directorate of the SBU has taken the investigation of a criminal case, and Kostin took it "for personal control". The Prosecutor General emphasized that the aggressor country does not adhere to any of the rules of the civilized world, and thousands of citizens, including civilized, torture daily and are threatened with extrajudicial execution. “The Russian Federation once again shows its cannibal face . . .

According to the Geneva Convention for the Protection of Civilians during the War, it is forbidden to take hostages of civilians, to hurt them, to behave, to use torture and to persecute. Civilians should also have access to medical care and medicines, ”Kostin recalled. Ombudsman Dmitry Lubinets said on his Facebook that the death of the volunteer was violent, and this is a military crime that would be another proof during the tribunal.
