Earlier that day, the State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) officers charged Tyshchenko with illegally detaining a former military serviceman in Dnipro. Tyshchenko then appeared before court to determine his pre-trial detention terms.
In addition to house arrest, prosecution asked the court to order the MP to wear an electronic bracelet, surrender his passport, and be barred from traveling outside Kyiv.
The prosecutor also told the court that when law enforcement came to present the charges, Tyshchenko broke two of his mobile phones. The prosecution requested that the corresponding video be added to the case materials.
Tyshchenko’s lawyer argued that if his client intended to hide, he would not have appeared at the court hearing.
In Dnipro, on June 20, individuals in military uniforms and balaclavas attacked Dmytro "Son" Pavlov, a former member of the Kraken special unit.
Footage shows the uniformed men approaching Pavlov on Cologne Boulevard while he was walking with a baby in a stroller, surrounding him, and pushing him to the ground. One attacker also searched Pavlov's bag.
Telegram channels claimed that Pavlov had an argument with MP Mykola Tyshchenko and his security detail.
On June 21, Tyshchenko commented on the incident, calling it a provocation. He claimed Pavlov was no longer a military man and that he had no bodyguards at the time.
The head of the Presidential Office, Andriy Yermak, condemned Tyshchenko's behavior in Dnipro, calling the assault on the former Ukrainian Armed Forces officer shameful.
