The Case
On July 20, 2016, a Belarusian and a Russian journalist were killed in the center of Kyiv. On July 12, 2016, a Belarusian and a Russian journalist were killed in the center of Kyiv. Pavel Sheremet. He was blown up in his own car. At that time, he worked in Ukraine in the publication "Ukrainian Pravda".
On December 12, 2019, during a joint briefing with the participation of President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyi, Minister of Internal Affairs Arsen Avakov, and Prosecutor General Ruslan Ryaboshapka, it was announced that "the alleged organizers and perpetrators" of this high-profile murder have been found.
The culprits were a musician, a sergeant of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, a veteran of the Russian-Ukrainian war Andrii Antonenko (pseudo Riffmaster), pediatric heart surgeon, volunteer Yulia Kuzmenko and a military doctor Yana Dugar. They are accused, without evidence, of intentional murder (Article 115 of the Criminal Code) and illegal handling of weapons, ammunition or explosives (Article 263 of the Criminal Code).
The main evidence of the investigation is the portrait and psychological examination of KNDISE specialists, which was carried out according to scientifically unsubstantiated and unregistered methods. Because of this, the Ministry of Justice brought the experts to justice, and Serhiy Zuzak, a former member of the group of prosecutors in this case, recognized the expertise as "doubtful and insufficient evidence to send the case to court."
Andriy Antonenko was behind bars for 505 days, now under house arrest. Julia Kuzmenko – was behind bars for 244 days, later under night house arrest, Yana Dugar - under bail.
Yulia Kuzmenko spent 8 months behind bars and a year under 24-hour house arrest due to persecution in the "Sheremet case". After the preventive measure was changed to night house arrest, we talked with Yulia - see u video.
January 24, 2024 Shevchenkivskiy District Court of the city of Kyiv stopped the proceedings in the case on the indictment of Andrii Antonenko, Yulia Kuzmenko, and Yana Dugar in connection with Yana's military service.
