No instigators or accomplices have been identified over the course of the investigation and trial of Viacheslav Zinchenko, who has already received a life sentence for the murder of linguist and civic activist Iryna Farion, Deputy National Police Chief Andrii Nebytov said.
Duty police chief Andrii Nebytov stated that no instigators or accomplices have been identified during the investigation and trial of Viacheslav Zinchenko, who received a life sentence for the murder of linguist and civic activist Iryna Farion. The investigation, lasting two years, involved the National Police, prosecutor's office, and Security Service of Ukraine.
Zinchenko acted alone due to personal convictions, including hostility towards Farion's civic activities, according to Nebytov. Over 92 forensic examinations were conducted, more than 1,500 individuals questioned, and hundreds of surveillance cameras analyzed. Despite refusing to admit guilt, Zinchenko was found guilty by the court based on compelling evidence, leading to his life sentence.
