Murder of teenagers in Berdiansk: invaders do not give their relatives bodies for burial

Representatives of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation in occupied Berdiansk do not give the relatives of Tihran Ohannisian and Mykyta Khanhanov a certificate of permission for burial, which makes it impossible to pick up their bodies from the morgue and bury them. Also, the morgue is currently under heavy protection of the invaders.

Quote: "They do not issue a certificate, – the case was sent to Melitopol, they say, and that's it. And without this piece of paper, the bodies are in the morgue and can’t be taken. You have no idea what place we are living in. We have no rights... And there is no one to turn to, to whom to complain... "

Details: Also, the invaders did not let the grandmother of Tihran Ohannisian to identify the body of her grandson. Only the relatives of the second murdered teenager Mykyta Khanhanov could see the deceased boys; they identified both of them.

Background:

• On 24 June, Russian propagandists reported that "as a result of a coordinated operation, law enforcement officers eliminated two pro-Ukrainian terrorists".
