Committee of the Verknovna Rada on Legislative Support of Law Enforcement will require report of the Head of the National Police of Ukraine Khatia Dekanoidze on the incident in the village of Kryve Ozero in Mykolaiv region, resulting in the death of the local resident, detained by the police. The deputy head of this committee, MP from the inter-faction union UKROP Vitaliy Kupriy said it on the air of “112 Ukraine” TV channel.
At the same time the politician did not rule out obstinacy of some members of the committee on the issue of the appropriate assessment of the incident. As there are very few people in the committee who have a really strong position, said the MP.
“We will definitely initiate Ms Dekanoidze’s report on these events, and it should result in some personnel decisions. If the Head of the National police covers up her employees, we will raise the question about her responsibility, including dismissal,” said Vitaliy Kupriy.
As it is known, overnight into Wednesday, August 24, in the village of Kryve Ozero in Mykolayiv region there was a conflict between a taxi driver and a 32-year-old Oleksandr Zuckerman. Police got to the scene and detained Zuckerman. Eyewitnesses said that during arrest police officers began to beat the man, and then an ambulance was called. Doctors attested death of the detainee. Subsequently the Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutsenko said that the detainee was also shot. Six police officers were detained within this case. Khatia Dekanoidze has recently stated that she decided to disband the police department in Kryve Ozero.
