Iermolaiev Alleges HUR Role in June 29 Monaco Bombing That Injured 3

3 articles · Updated · monacolife.net · Jul 16

Summary

  • Vadym Iermolaiev said in his first public statement since the June 29 blast that the bombing outside his Monaco home was an attempted murder of him, his partner and their 13-year-old son.
  • In an open letter issued through his lawyers, Iermolaiev said he remains in intensive care, his partner suffered irreversible injuries, and investigators had communicated information leading him to suspect serving HUR officers were involved.
  • Ukrainian and Monaco prosecutors are still trying to determine who ordered the attack and whether others took part, a week after Ukraine's prosecutor general said a serving HUR officer confessed to murdering suspected bomber Anastasiia Berezovska.
  • Iermolaiev urged an independent, transparent investigation and protection for his family, witnesses and lawyers, while stressing his accusations target individuals rather than Ukraine as a state.
