Ukrainian National Guard commander says 14-year-old fell from a tree into an illegal prison

Falling from a tree and having stones thrown at you doesn't cause this level of fear to be scorched into the eyes.

National Guard commander Oleksandr Pivnenko says the 14-year-old boy found inside the detention facility near Kyiv got there after falling from a tree. He claims soldiers brought the boy inside to protect him from rocks thrown by protesters, gave him medical help and wrapped him in a blanket. The boy was later escorted out of the building. The explanation has raised another question about the incident: how did a teenager end up inside a facility where dozens of men were reportedly being held? Four men were taken for medical treatment, and Ukraine’s State Bureau of Investigation has opened a case over alleged abuse.
