The security agents did not leave a copy of the court decision. According to the journalist’s mother, ties with a foreign country and a 10-day arrest were mentioned in the document.
Mr. Bronislav Danylovych, Irena’s father, informed that a video of abducting his daughter was found. The journalist’s father filed a new statement with the police demanding to initiate a criminal case on the fact of his daughter’s abduction. He also demanded that the police remove the video from the cameras and attach it to the case file.
