Video of the excesses of UOC-KP supporters in Stary Gvozdets published
In the video, members of the UOC-KP are kicking and pushing parishioners of the UOC community, and the people gathered around the church are shouting "Shame!" to the police.
Despite requests of the UOC faithful to the Kolomyia police to intervene and stop the beating, law enforcers paved the way for the Kyiv Patriarchate to the UOC church, and the head of the local police suggested that parishioners appeal to the court if they consider the actions of law enforcers illegal.
