According to law enforcement, the head of the ROC is accused of encroaching on the territorial integrity and inviolability of Ukraine (Article 110 of the Criminal Code).
The Ministry of Internal Affairs website also indicates that the Patriarch has already been subjected to a measure of restraint in the form of detention, and the 'date of disappearance' of the head of the ROC was November 11, 2023.
