The head of the National Police spoke about the terrible consequences of the long stay of the enemy in the Kharkiv region.



The head of the National Police of Ukraine, Igor Klymenko, said that more than 1,000 additional police officers were sent to the Kharkiv region. The head of the National Police of Ukraine spoke today, September 16, at a briefing at the Military Media Center.

We work in fairly large areas that require large resources, including the National Police, in order not to ignore and interview all citizens living there. There is no electricity, gas or water supply in these territories. We must do everything so that citizens not only feel safe, but also help them as much as possible in a difficult situation, - said Igor Klimenko.

In the liberated territories, 16 additional control points and 21 checkpoints have been deployed, where police officers serve, more than 30 investigation teams are working. Over the past week, 204 criminal proceedings related to Russian war crimes have been opened.

We can talk about the atrocities that took place in our cities. Entering Balakleya or Izyum, we see a huge number of crimes committed against the civilian population. 10 dungeons were revealed, - Igor Klimenko reported.

One of the torture chambers was located in Balakleya - in the city police department, where about 40 people were kept in cells. People were kept in terrible conditions for up to 48 days, they were mocked and tortured. Another torture chamber with inhuman conditions of detention was located in the premises of the printing house, - said Igor Klimenko.

Igor Klymenko said that the police are conducting investigative measures to establish the degree of injuries received by people.
