The commander of the so-called 'army of the South-East", the terrorist Alexei Rilke, was detained in Lugansk on Friday.
UKRINFORM's correspondent was told this in Vinnytsia by the Ukrainian interior minister, Arseniy Avakov, reports Censor.NET.
"Today Interior Ministry officials detained the 'commander' of the army 'of the South-East' Alexei Aleksandrovich Rilke. He has been transferred to another region so that an investigation can be conducted and preventative measures can be chosen. He is being charged under articles 109 and 208 of the Ukrainian Criminal Code", said the minister.
Avakov also noted that Rilke is one of the most radical terrorists operating in the east of the country.
