David Pshenychny, one of the leaders of the armed seizure of St. Michael's Cathedral in Cherkasy, who fired a gun at parishioners inside the church, has been registered as a candidate for the Public Anti-Corruption Council of the Ministry of Defense. Online voting involving Pshenychny took place on January 7, though the results are not yet known.
Pshenychny was nominated by the NGO "National Center for Human Rights", led by prominent radical Yevhen Karas, who has repeatedly organized protests against the Ukrainian Orthodox Church (UOC). On his Telegram channel, Karas stated that Pshenychny was "one of the key exorcists who cleansed Ukraine’s largest Orthodox cathedral in Cherkasy, and this is a good outcome." Karas also posted a photo of Pshenychny during the armed takeover of the UOC cathedral, where he is seen aiming a pistol at parishioners.
An identical description of Pshenychny was published by the "Council of Veterans of the War with Russia".
Earlier, the UOJ reported on those involved in the assault on the UOC cathedral in Cherkasy.
