So, in the summer of 2014, on Bolshaya Zhitomirskaya Street, the foreign car of Dmitry Stupka, the son of Ostap Bogdanovich, collided with a Lada. Then the driver of the latter was taken to the hospital with a hand injury. Passengers of the Lada claimed that the accident occurred due to the carelessness of Stupka Jr., who allegedly did not see their car in the mirror.

Dmitry himself did not object and explained this by the fact that his car was in the so-called “dead zone”.

Ostap Stupka faces imprisonment for up to three years with deprivation of the right to drive vehicles for a period of three to five years.
