People's Deputy of Ukraine Mykola Tyshchenko joined the session of the Babushkinsky District Court of Dnipro, which was held via video link. Tyshchenko, together with his security guards, became a defendant in the case of the illegal deprivation of liberty of former serviceman Dmytro Mazokha.
It is reported that the preparatory hearing in the case of People's Deputy Tyshchenko and former Kraken special forces soldier Mazokha continues in the Babushkin District Court of Dnipro. It is intended to review the preventive measure for the People's Deputy and collect evidence in order to proceed to the consideration of the case on the merits.
"The People's Deputy joined the meeting via video, his lawyer asked for the judge to be disqualified. He noted that the judge violated the rules and that he had warned him the previous time that Tishchenko would not come to court," the report says.
The preparatory meeting began on December 20, 2024, but Tyshchenko did not appear, so the court ruled to forcibly bring him to the continuation of the meeting on December 23. However, Tyshchenko did not arrive again.
The prosecutor reported that Tyshchenko did not appear in court because he was diagnosed with ischemic heart disease.
Tyshchenko and former police officer Pysarenko are accused of illegally detaining Dmytro Mazokha, a war veteran and former fighter of the Kraken special forces unit.
Tyshchenko's case was sent to court in December 2024.
