Lawyer Viktoriya Kokhanovska, who has been at the monastery every day since she started standing up for the Lavra, received a summons for questioning by the SBU on 7 April.

As Viktoria told a UOJ correspondent, the summons says only that she is a witness in the case, but it is unknown what the case is, the summons only gives the case number – all the details are classified due to the wartime regime.

On 9 April, law enforcers took Kokhanovska for questioning directly from the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra.

As earlier reported, Kokhanovska spoke out about fake pages raising money on her behalf.
