There is no significant progress in the investigation into the murder of journalist Pavel Sheremet in Kyiv downtown, Head of the National Police of Ukraine Khatia Dekanoidze has said.

“As for Pavel Sheremet’s case, first of all, we learn new details of this case in the morning. I cannot say there is much progress but, of course, there is a huge chore we fulfill,” she told journalists in Kyiv on August 19.

Dekanoidze added she “strongly opposes discussing the details of the investigation by anyone.” According to her, the disclosure of any of the investigation details harms the investigation.
