The minors acted according to the instructions of the so-called “curator”, who promised them a reward. The girls face up to 8 years in prison.
Law enforcement officials have identified two girls, ages 15 and 16, who were involved in setting fire to a car bought by volunteers for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The Poltava region police reported this on September 18.
According to the head of the regional police, Evgeny Rogachev, the minors acted on the instructions of the so-called “curator”, who promised them a reward.
“Police operatives learned that one of the girls had received an offer to earn easy money by setting fire to military, ambulance, or police vehicles from a man she met through a messenger,” said the head of the regional police.
To solve this crime, a team of operatives from the Department of Criminal Investigation and Criminal Analysis of the Main Police Department of Poltava Region was involved in cooperation with colleagues from Kremenchug.
Investigators are investigating criminal proceedings regarding obstruction of the legitimate activities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and other military formations under the conditions of a special period. The penalty of the article provides imprisonment for up to eight years.
We remind you that in the Odessa region, two young people were detained who, on the orders of the Russians, set fire to a police car.
Earlier in Kyiv, five henchmen of the Russian special services were detained who carried out arson in the capital. Their main “targets” are SUVs and minibuses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
