At the end of February 2024, social networks distributed the news that two residents of the capital of Ukraine allegedly took revenge on an employee of the military enlistment office for the agendas he handed. It is reported that the man was tracked in the evening, attacked him and selected valuable things. We checked the reliability of this story.
Publications on the attack of two men on an employee of the territorial center of recruitment (TCC) appeared in Runet on February 24, 2024. In Telegram channel "Sheikh Tamir”(143,000 views at the time of writing this analysis) was told about the incident:“ Having received the agenda, two residents of Kyiv did not get upset and already tracked the TCC employee in the evening, hit him with a brick on the head and selected a “working notebook”, as well as some valuable things (officially a telephone and a gold ring). According to the head of the Shevchenkovsky Central Internal Affairs Directorate Igor Padyuk, as a result of processing the evidence collected at the scene, the criminal investigators, together with analysts of criminal analysis, recreated the circumstances of the event and established those involved in the attack on the victim: “The attackers were two men-44-year-old Kharkov, a comrade, resident of the capital. The defendants near the scene, and his accomplice is on the left side of Kyiv. " The detainees are facing a real prison term, which is preferable for them to service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. ” At the same time, the post is accompanied by a 22-second video, as well as two photos of detained suspects.
Similar to the content of the publication appeared in Telegram channels "Sanya in Florida"(462,000 views),"Operational reports"(207 000),"Ukraine.ru"(142 000),"Ostashko! Important"(116 000),"Release Kraken!"(73,000),"Club service"(72 000),"Prigozhin 2023"(63,000),"Officer"(52,000) and"Yuri Podolyak"(43,000). There are similar entries in public in "VKontakte"And on Some news sites.
On the spreading video, it is shown how two unknown people from the back are approached by a man sitting on the hood of a car, and then attack him, stringing several brick blows on the head. After some time, the attackers are hiding from the scene of the crime. At the same time, in the lower right corner of the video is the logo of the press service of the National Police of Ukraine (NPU), and in the center the emblem of the Ukrainian Telegram channel “All-seeing Eye” appears several times.
February 24 at 01:46 Moscow time in "All -seeing Oka"(293,000 views) A post with the same video actually appeared, but it said that the attack was committed on a soldier. There were no references to the fact that the victim worked in TCC. The details of what happened are listed almost the same as in Russian channels: the crime occurred in the capital, unknown people - residents of Kharkov and Kyiv - stole a telephone, wallet and gold ring of the victim, soon they were detained. Unlike Russian resources, the Ukrainian Telegram channel brought a link to the official Facebook*-Kiev police account, where a post on a robbery Published February 23 at 19:32. The same video of the incident was given the same photographs of the detainees that the authors of Russian notes and publications are distributed.
According to the press release, a soldier turned to the Shevchenkovsky police department and announced a robbery. The attackers ran to him from behind and greatly struck with a brick on the head, and then continued to beat, as a result of which the man lost consciousness. When the victim came to his senses, he discovered that he had a mobile phone, a wallet and a gold ring. The operatives calculated the location of the attackers and detained them for several hours. Under the charges, the defendants are facing up to 15 years in prison with confiscation of property. “Two men were attackers-44-year-old Kharkiv and his 39-year-old comrade, a resident of the capital. We detained one of the defendants near the scene, his accomplice on the left bank of the city of Kyiv, ”said Igor Padyuk, head of the Shevchenkovsky police department. About the place of work of the victim, about his missing working notebook and the receipt of summons by the detainees, nothing was said.
The same criminal report Published On the National Police of Kyiv. Without mentioning the TCC and the motives of the detainees, this news was presented as Famous Ukrainian Media, and some pro -government Russian publications. For example, in "Tape.ru" And "Public news service"The victim of the attack was called simply a military personnel of the Armed Forces.
By keywords, it was “verified” that the earliest post with a 22-second viral video and mentioning an attack on the military commissar was due to the agenda on February 24 at 12:29 in the Telegram channel “Ukrop Fresh"(12,000 views). Previously, this channel has repeatedly distributed Anti-Ukrainian fakes, and at the beginning of 2024 there appeared A couple of similar false messages. So, on January 15, Ukropsky Fresh posted a staged murder of an employee of the Ukrainian military registration and enlistment office, and on January 22, they published a photo of another military commissar allegedly killed in Kharkov (then the authors of the channel fissured the police press release, adding the mention of TCC and agendas). However, 12 hours earlier, February 24 at 00:04, in the Telegram channel "Alexander Semchenko"(98,000 views) also talked about the beating of the military commissar of brick. But in that publication an almost two -minute video was presented with a commentary on a representative of Ukrainian law enforcement agencies, who also did not talk about the summons and the place of work of the victim. This channel is also mentioned in dozens of our analysis and distributed Fakes mentioned above about the murder of two TCC employees.
It is noteworthy that the day before, on February 23, in the channels "Ukrop Fresh"(8000 views) and"Alexander Semchenko"(88,000) with a difference of several minutes they talked about another attack on the military commissar in Kyiv - they supposedly wanted to kill him with brick while he was traveling in the tram. “At some point [From the station] A brick flew into him, which broke the window and hit him exactly. As a result, the military commissar of the skull has a serious trauma, it was urgently hospitalized in the hospital, ”the posts say. Moreover, it is clarified that "in Kyiv public people approve of this act." Among other large channels about the alleged incident with an employee of the TCC, only the resource of the TV presenter wrote Ruslan Ostashko (117,000 views).
“Verified” found out: from February 22 in Kyiv communities, public and blogs in fact They wrote The fact that unknown people threw a brick into a moving tram. As a result, a man suffered, whose place of work was not indicated anywhere. Moreover, the act of the hooligans himself was completely condemned.
Thus, the Kyiv police did not report the detention of robbers with bricks who had attacking the military commissar. Apparently, someone retold an official press release, adding there invented details about the motive of criminals and about the place of work of their victim.
*Russian authorities They think Meta Platforms Inc., which owns the social network Facebook, an extremist organization, its activities in Russia are prohibited.
