The Prosecutor General's Office has reported this.
"At the request of the prosecutors of the Ternopil Specialized Prosecutor's Office in the Field of Defense of the Western Region, the court chose a preventive measure for the commander of the 211th pontoon-bridge brigade of the Support Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine - detention with the right to post a bail of UAH 908,400," the report says.
In addition, the higher command suspended him from performing his official duties.
Recall that the soldiers of the 211th pontoon-bridge brigade of the Support Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were bulled in such a way that their internal organs were damaged and their bones were broken.
A temporary investigative commission received materials about the beatings back in September. The investigation received video and audio recordings that prove the abuse of the servicemen. The materials were transferred to the State Bureau of Investigation.
In addition, an investigation has also been launched into other officials in the brigade.
