A court at a session on March 27 extended the arrest of Dmytro Rossoshansky, the culprit in a deadly road accident who was sentenced in May 2017 to seven years in prison, the press service of the Kyiv Regional Prosecutor’s Office has reported.
“At the request of the Kyiv Regional Prosecutor’s Office, Rossoshansky, who is accused of committing a criminal offense under Part 2, Article 286 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, had his measure of restraint in the form of detention extended,” the report says.
At the same time, the regional prosecutor’s office noted that “individual citizens” tried to mislead the society by spreading untrue information that Rossoshansky could be released on March 27.
