"Every other day I visit Kyiv pretrial detention facility, it is with Ivan Martyniuk, every five days I submit an attorney's inquiries about his state of health. I personally check his external data, that is, whether he has been inflicted with any physical injuries. To date, he looks very good, smiles, holds on. But attempts, the defense side emphasizes, psychological pressure in Kyiv pretrial detention facility took place," attorney Tetiana Okhrymchuk said at a press conference at Interfax-Ukraine on Monday.
