Man, 50, held in custody in Kharkiv over June killing of Ukrainian military recruitment officer
A court in Kharkiv has remanded a 50-year-old man in custody without the option of bail. He is suspected of killing a military serviceman of a TCC recruitment centre and wounding his colleague on 25 June.
A court in Kharkiv, Ukraine's second-largest city, has ordered a 50-year-old man to be held in custody. He is suspected of killing a serviceman of a TCC and wounding the man's colleague in an attack on 25 June. The news was reported on 19 October by the Ukrainian outlet Ukrainska Pravda.
TCCs are territorial recruitment and social support centres, Ukrainian military bodies that handle the registration of servicemen and mobilisation in a country that has been under martial law since Russia's full-scale invasion.
The court ruled that the suspect remains in detention without the right to post bail, meaning he cannot secure release by paying a deposit.
The source does not say what circumstances led to the attack, who the suspect is by name, how long the custody term lasts, how the wounded serviceman is doing, or what the next steps of the investigation are.
