Мовляв, це не СБУшники на них напали, а вони – на СБУшників.»- “ A tomu, ščo vony rozumily, ščo je velyčezna jmovirnistʹ toho, ščo jix, vrešti-rešt, koly sprava dijde do sudu, možutʹ šče j vynnymy zrobyty. Movljav, ce ne SBUšnyky na nyx napaly, a vony – na SBUšnykiv.”
- " Because they understood that there was a huge chance that they, in the end, when the case came to court, could even be found guilty. Like it wasn't the SBU agents who attacked them, but they attacked the SBU agents."
