According to a previous diagnosis, Maksim Vinnik has got a brain concussion.
“This assault is a consequence of our consistent position against the building on the embankment of Ukrainka and distortion of its natural appearance by selfish developers. This contradicts the desire of the town residents, who have repeatedly expressed their position against the building. And we as deputies stand with the community. So, we have such consequences,” said Maksim Vinnik.
“Deputies from UKROP Maksim Vinnik and Tetyana Kucher were consistently advocating the interests of the community. We are against distortion of the promenade of Ukrainka, which is a landmark of the city.

The guilty should be punished,” said Volodymyr Maybozhenko, the first deputy chairman of the Regional Council, chairman of UKROP in Kyiv region.
