The Attorney General does not rule out that there will be many more cases of sexual violence when the war is over and when the victims are no longer afraid to speak out.
In Borodianka, Kiev region, during its occupation, recorded cases of sexual violence against an old woman and children. This was announced on Friday, April 7, at the telethon of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine, Irina Venediktova.
“People have experienced horrible tragedies, people are still there where they are afraid. If we talk about sexual violence, it exists. Moreover, sexual crimes are not only against women, but against men! Now, the reality of the rape of a grandmother! Children! “, said the Attorney General.
He noted that there are likely to be more sexual crimes than are known today.
“The victims are intimidated, the victims are afraid to speak! We have some victims in Western Ukraine, some victims are already abroad. They only interact with non-governmental organizations and priests So, of course, we will do it as much as possible in a sensual space. But this is not a story that there should be a female investigative, it is a story that there should be only one interrogation for the victim to continue to be “not pulled ”… This is a story about preparing the victim of moral sexual violence and giving him or her rehabilitation, – Venediktova emphasized.
He also stressed that sexual crimes during war are also war crimes with no law of limitations.
Recall that in Borodyanka from the rubble began to recover the dead residents. Under the rubble, 26 bodies were found in two apartment buildings that were just bombed.
