@OKhudetska @Gerashchenko_en "I know it's a bit long, but it's a masterpiece of how Avakov and senior police officers blocked the arrest of the Black Berkut Company, one of the units that carried out the shootΡng on Instytutska, in Apr 2014.
This allowed most of them to escape."

@OKhudetska @Gerashchenko_en "Here, then-Deputy Prosecutor General Bahanets describes how detentions of 16 members of the Black Company were disrupted: senior police officers broke into investigators' offices, threatened investigators, and took soldiers away from interrogations..."
@OKhudetska @Gerashchenko_en "...The operation was clearly previously leaked by the Ministry of Internal Affairs."

@OKhudetska @Gerashchenko_en "Then the building in the center of Kyiv where the interrogations were taking place, was surrounded by 300 Berkut officers WITH GUNS, blocking the exits to prevent the removal of those already detained..."
@OKhudetska @Gerashchenko_en "...They were able to remove three of [the Berkut officers], while the rest were released under threats of armed assault."

@OKhudetska @Gerashchenko_en "Not only were none dismissed for rioting, Avakov met with a Berkut and promised them protection."
"My sources told me about this conversation. They say Avakov promised directly 'I won't give you to them'. In exchange, he asked for personal loyalty."

@OKhudetska @Gerashchenko_en "In 2015, during the evaluation, we found that at least 9 Berkut officers were part of Avakov's personal security.
You can sense the connection they have.
They didn't show up to the evaluation, but called in sick... by some miracle they weren't fired"

"Oh, and... Berkut did not pass the evaluation, the evaluation with the public and journalists in the commissions. They had some kind of internal evaluation... π« π«
...apparently very strict."

This focus of @OKhudetska's journalism is valued in πΊπ¦. She's exposed cover-ups, tracked Berkut as they've been brought to trials they'd likely have escaped otherwise.
