Yuriy Hrabovsky, a lawyer for Russian military serviceman Alexander Alexandrov, was killed using firearms.

This was stated by Anatoliy Matios, Deputy Prosecutor General of Ukraine and Chief Military Prosecutor of Ukraine, at the briefing in Kyiv on Friday, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

"I can say tentatively that lawyer Hrabovsky was killed using violence and was shot with firearms," Matios said.

According to him, the material evidence, the clothes of two killers, was destroyed at the crime scene.

As a reminder, the Holosiyivsky District Court in Kyiv on March 9 put off the hearings in a criminal case against two Russian special security force officers Yevgeny Yerofeyev and Alexander Alexandrov, due to absence of lawyer Hrabovsky. 

The Ukrainian National Bar Association reported the lawyer had been found dead today in the morning.
