Vinnytsia City Court considers the case about state treason of pro-Russian blogger Anatolii Sharii and former Head of the Department of the National Police of Ukraine in Vinnytsia region Anton Shevtsov. The case is about cooperation between Lieutenant Colonel of the National Police Shevtsov and Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) and their media project, involving Ukrainian military captives. Ukrainian citizen Anatolii Sharii, scandalous pro-Russian blogger with large audience, has supported the project.

Both suspects are hiding from Ukrainian law enforcement bodies. Sharii resides in Spain, Shevtsov – in the Russian Federation and occupied Crimea.
