The Lisichansk City Court found the local citizen guilty of committing sabotage and sentenced him to 10 years in prison with confiscation of property.
As reported in the prosecutor's office of the Lugansk region, in April 2014 the man, being radically inclined towards the current Ukrainian authorities, agreed with a group of people to undermine the supporting beams of the automobile bridge across the Seversky Donets River.
They committed the crime in July using an improvised explosive device. As a result of damage to the bridge, traffic in the region was disrupted. To restore the state spent more than 1 million euros.
