⚖️ The court placed customs officer Vladyslav Pankiv under arrest; he allegedly hit a pedestrian and fled the scene of the accident
The man was struck at approximately 23:00 on 11 October in Horodenka. The suspect, driving a Volkswagen ID.4, ran over a 25-year-old local resident who was walking along the edge of the roadway in the same direction. As a result of the crash, the victim sustained serious bodily injuries and was hospitalized in the intensive care unit of the district hospital. He is currently in critical condition.
After the collision the driver left the scene. According to investigators, he hid the car in a garage and went to work the next day.
The court imposed pretrial detention with the possibility of bail. It was established that the 31-year-old suspect is the son of Horodenka district prosecutor Petro Pankiv.
Preliminary results of an examination using a Dräger device showed no signs of alcohol intoxication in the suspect. He was therefore notified of suspicion under Part 2 of Article 286 and Part 3 of Article 135 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. Prosecutors from the Ivano-Frankivsk Regional Prosecutor’s Office are leading the criminal proceedings.
