On 14 July 2023, the Solomiansky District Court of Kyiv decided to satisfy the prosecutors' petition and changed the measure of restraint for Metropolitan Pavel, the abbot of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra, to stay in custody, a UOJ correspondent reports from the courtroom.
The bishop may remain at large in case of bail in the amount of 33 million hryvnias.
