This was announced by the head of the police communications department in the Kyiv region, Nikolai Zhukovich, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“There are no traces of DNA on the machine gun, which was found in the Vasilkovsky district, one and a half kilometers from the place of execution,” he said.
He noted that now it is impossible to say unequivocally whether the murder was committed with this machine gun or not, since the ballistic examination continues. He added that the found machine gun was 5,45 mm caliber.
“We seize or find various weapons every day, so it is not yet possible to say that this machine gun was used,” noted the speaker of the Kyiv regional police.
He also said that the media disseminated information about the alleged seizure of blank cartridges from the scene of Okueva’s execution.
“As far as we know, one of the TV channels at this place was reproducing the situation, which is why these cartridges appeared there,” he explained.
The police also denied the statement of individual people’s deputies that four people participated in the execution of Okueva.
“The investigation does not yet have such information,” said Nikolai Zhukovich.
Let us remind you that the police previously reported that DNA material collected from the probable location of the killer Amina Okueva was sent for examination. In turn, Anton Gerashchenko said that last week law enforcement officers found a machine gun, which was probably used to shoot up the car of Amina Okueva and Adam Osmayev, with DNA remains.
Let us remind you that on October 30, at about 20:00, unknown persons shot at a car from the bushes on the road near the Glevakha railway station in the Kyiv region. Amina Okueva was killed and Adam Osmayev was wounded in the leg. The police initiated criminal proceedings under Part 2 of Article 115 of the Criminal Code.
