"We have three iconic places of torture, all of them were in the Bucha district... People were tied up, strangled with car cables, beaten with batons, held in pits, and then shot," said the regional police chief.
He clarified that all these three places of torture were either in the headquarters of the Russian army, where, according to the evidence, the Russian command was located directly, or in positions where heavy artillery was placed.
"Abducted local residents were taken there, tortured and killed," he added.
Nebytov also reported that 43 children were injured during active hostilities and occupation in the territory of Kyiv region. "Unfortunately, 38 deaths of children have been confirmed," he clarified.
Four children are considered missing, three of whom are actually from the same family.
"According to our information, during the occupation, this family was forcibly deported to the Russian Federation," said Nebytov.
Another child, according to the chief of the police station, is abroad with one of his parents without the knowledge of the other.
