The investigation believes that in January of this year, Ukrainian Likholat contacted the SBU, where he was instructed to blow up railway tracks. He recruited two Grodno residents who had professional skills in mine and explosives for the task. Pukhalsky Boris was detained when he took an explosive device from a hiding place in the Kobrin district and transported it to the Tolochin district.

Sentenced to 25 years in prison, the court ordered Boris to serve the first five years of his sentence in prison.
