It became known about the detention of the ex-head of the Supreme Court Vsevolod Knyazev near the state border in Transcarpathia, just 1 kilometer from the border with Romania.
Ex-Chairman of the Supreme Court Knyazev was released from the pre-trial detention center in January on bail of 8 million hryvnias.
Knyazev was a passenger in a Volkswagen car with registration number АО1794YA.
Knyazev is currently in the department of the border service "Solotvyno". They clarify the purpose of his stay near the state border and check the version about a possible attempt to illegally cross the border of Ukraine.
Vsevolod Knyazev's lawyer, commenting on his detention, said that the ex-head of the Supreme Court was on his way to a sanatorium in Transcarpathia.
"There are no questions from SAP prosecutors and NABU detectives to Knyazev regarding this situation," he summarized.
