Pro-Ukrainian activist Oleg Prykhodko, who was arrested by Russian security forces because of charges of “terrorism” and “manufacture of explosives,” was transferred to a detention center in Rostov-on-Don. This was reported by the Krym.Realii media agency.
“I received information that Oleg Prykhodko was taken to the Rostov-on-Don pre-trial detention center. I do not know the conditions under which he is being detained there. There are no details yet, but there is the fact that Oleg was taken to Rostov”, – said lawyer Nazim Sheikhmambetov.
We remind that on February 8, 2019, Russian security officials searched the dwelling of pro-Ukrainian activist Oleg Prykhodko in the village of Orikhove, Saky District.
On October 9, 2019, Russian security officials again broke into Oleg Prykhodko’s dwelling and kidnapped him. On October 10, a search was conducted in his dwelling, during which the man was detained. His wife Liubov Prykhodko was also detained. The activist is accused of “terrorism" and “manufacture of explosives.” The woman was detained as a witness, but later released. On October 10, the so-called Kyiv District Court arrested Oleg Prykhodko until December 10. Later Prykhodko’s DNA samples were illegally taken. According to lawyer Nazim Sheikhmambetov, this was done for the purpose of falsifying evidence. The political prisoner had his measure of restraint repeatedly extended.
