Minister of Internal Affairs Igor Klymenko, during a meeting with journalists, said that the shooting in the Goloseevsky district of Kyiv began due to a domestic conflict, and the shooter recorded his actions on a voice recorder, an Ukrinform correspondent reports..
It is noted that it all started with a domestic conflict. According to the minister, the shooter lived on the fifth floor and had lengthy disputes with a neighbor on the sixth floor.. The conflict between them continued for some time and escalated again on April 18.
As Klimenko noted, after the shooter was eliminated, when examining his phone, it was established that he recorded all his actions on a voice recorder. This allowed law enforcement to reproduce the events in detail almost minute by minute..
" It is very difficult to understand what exactly he wrote down, because it was a mixture of words that are almost unrelated to each other. For example, it sounded something like “the director, he says, by the way, he lives in this house, he’s such an adult.”. As I understand it, a neighbor on the sixth floor called him director, and this irritated him,” Klimenko said.
According to him, first the suspect fired shots from a traumatic weapon near the entrance, after which he returned to the apartment, took a carbine, set the room on fire and went outside. During all this time, the man recorded his actions on his phone..
" The point was that this person had previously appeared in a case under Article 125 for minor bodily injuries, but the court closed the proceedings because the parties had reconciled, so he had no official criminal record. We tentatively assume that he could have intentionally started recording his actions,” the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs said and added that the man probably did not even plan to shoot.
Klimenko said that the man most likely recorded the conflict on his phone so that in the future he would not be accused in court or the police of the words he said.. He also noted that on the recording one can hear how at some point the man suddenly breaks down and loses self-control..
