People's Deputy of Ukraine Mykola Tyshchenko joined the meeting of Babushkin District Court of Dnipro, which was held via video link. Tyshchenko, together with his bodyguards, became involved in the case of illegal imprisonment of former military serviceman Dmytro Mazokha.
It is reported that the preliminary hearing in the case of People's Deputy Tyshchenko and the former fighter of the Kraken special unit Mazokha continues in the Babushkin District Court of Dnipro. It should review the preventive measure for the people's deputy and gather evidence to proceed to the merits of the case.
"The MP joined the meeting via video, his lawyer asked for the judge's recusal. He noted that the judge violated the rules and that the previous time he had warned that Tyshchenko would not come to court," the report reads.
The preparatory session began on December 20, 2024, but Tyshchenko did not appear, so the court issued a decision to forcibly deliver him to the continuation of the session on December 23. However, Tyshchenko did not come again.
The prosecutor reported that Tyshchenko did not appear in court because he was diagnosed with ischemic heart disease.
Tyshchenko and former policeman Pysarenko are accused of illegally depriving Dmytro Mazokha of his freedom, a war veteran and former fighter of the Kraken special unit.
Tyshchenko's case was brought to court in December 2024.
