“During the search, all electronic equipment and a large sum of money were seized from 42-year-old Taras Kuzio. The security forces did not wait for the believer to open the door and broke it. Previously, he had already been searched twice. Then the security officials were looking for connections with Artem Herasymov, Jehovah's Witness, who was later sentenced to 6 years in prison for his faith”,- the message said.
It is noted that the reason for the search was a new criminal case “on the financing of an extremist organization.”
