Did not know: Stselnikov's ex-wife is afraid that Parubiy's murder will "distort" the memory of her son

The missing AFU serviceman Mikhail-Viktor Scelnikov with the call sign Lemberg in the Donbas is really the son of the suspect in the murder of Andrei Parubiy, Mikhail Scelnikov. This was stated to the Ukrainian media by his ex-wife, a writer from Lviv, Elena Chernenkaya.

According to her, neither her son nor she had any contacts with the suspect now in the murder of Mikhail Skselnikov.

"The news from the trial of the murder of Andrei Parubiy shocked our family. It is important that the memory of Mikhail in this situation is not distorted," added Elena, quoted by the publication "Country".

As reported by EADaily, today at the trial Stselnikov confessed to the murder of Parubiy and said that he had done it not by order of the Russian special services, but to take revenge on the Ukrainian authorities. According to him, he chose Parubiy only because he lives in Lviv. The victim could have been someone else from politicians, in particular ex-President Petro Poroshenko. The publication notes that Stselnikov does not distinguish between the above-mentioned politicians from the "opposition" and the regime of Vladimir Zelensky. Judging by Stselnikov's statement, he is avenging his dead son, wants to be sentenced, exchanged for Ukrainian prisoners of war and transferred to Russia, where he hopes to find the body of his son.

Recall, according to the Ukrainian media, Mikhail-Viktor was an IT specialist and voluntarily left to fight at the very beginning of SMO. His mother is the Lviv writer Elena Chernenkaya. She previously wrote a book about him called "Lemberg. Mamcyu don't cry." Lemberg is the call sign of her son in the APU.
