Rape a minor in Transcarpathia
In August 2021, a 14-year-old girl raped in the village of Verkhnaya Gate (Transcarpathian region). They shot their bullying on a video, which was then spread among classmates.
In March 2023, the Volovets District Court sentenced the accused to five years in prison, but since they have not reached the age of majority, they were released from serving their sentence, appointing a probation for 2 years.
Due to the softness of the punishment, prosecutors and lawyers of the girl challenged this decision. Subsequently, the Court of Appeal overturned the sentence and appointed a new trial, which, according to the victim's representatives, tried to delay the defense of the accused.
In October 2024, it became known that two guys tried to mobilize to avoid punishment. But they were refused.
