Details: On Saturday morning, the SBU searched Max Nazarov (real name – Nazar Diorditsa).
He is suspected of justifying Russian aggression.
Updated: The Security Service of Ukraine officially announced that it has collected a large-scale evidence base and received the conclusions of independent examinations, which confirm the anti-Ukrainian activities of the ex-host of the sanctioned TV channels “Nash” and “NewsOne”, which belonged to Viktor Medvedchuk and Yevhen Murayev.
According to the case materials, after the start of the full-scale war, the person involved created his channel on the video hosting YouTube, where he continued to spread the narratives of the Kremlin.
To do this, the blogger regularly invited pro-Russian “polite experts” to his broadcasts, a large number of whom are currently hiding in the Russian Federation.
During the interview, both the author himself and the guests of the studio repeatedly tried to justify Russia’s armed aggression against Ukraine, as well as the war crimes of the occupiers, in particular, missile strikes on the civilian infrastructure of our country, the special service emphasizes.
Another pro-Kremlin blogger (Dmytro Korniychuk – editor), who in February 2024 already received suspicion from SBU investigators, was a frequent guest of the figure.
Then the court chose a preventive measure for him – house arrest, but later the blogger continued his subversive activities in the interests of Moscow.
Both figures publicly tried to discredit Ukraine in the international arena and shook the social and political situation within our country.
Forensic-linguistic expertise initiated by the SBU confirmed the facts of crimes committed by both bloggers. Currently, the investigators of the Security Service have informed them about the suspicion under Art. 2, 3 Art. 436-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (justification, recognition as legitimate, denial of armed aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine, glorification of its participants).
The question of selecting a preventive measure in the form of detention for the accused is being resolved.
