Moscow’s Lefortovsky District Court has extended the arrest of Denys Hrytsenko, the commander of the 24 Ukrainian sailors detained following the incident near the Kerch Strait on November 25, until April 24, an Interfax correspondent reported.
“The court ruled to extend the period of Hrysenko’s arrest by three months, until April 24,” Judge Yelena Kaneva read from the ruling on Tuesday.
The arrest of Ukrainian Security Service (SBU) employee Andriy Drach, as well as two crewmembers, Viacheslav Zynchenko and Mykhailo Vlasiuk, was extended until the same date.
