In May 2023, the Khmelnytskyi court, chaired by Judge Volodymyr Navrotskyi, initiated criminal proceedings against the deacon of the Khmelnytskyi Holy Protection Cathedral, Ihor Slobodian, under Part 2 of Article 125 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine: "Intentional minor bodily harm causing short-term health disorder or insignificant loss of working capacity."
As reported by the UOJ, Ihor Slobodian, the subdeacon who "assaulted the military officer", explained how the events, leading to the seizure of the cathedral, actually unfolded.
