The investigation established that in March 2022, during the occupation of the village, they abducted Olрa Sukhenko, the head of Motyzhyn, her husband, and her son. At their "base," the invaders tortured them to get information about the UAF and defense. First, they shot her son in the leg and then shot him in the head in front of his mother. The whole family died from multiple gunshot wounds.
The bodies of Olha Sukhenko's family were found after the liberation of the Kyiv region from the russian occupiers at the beginning of April.
