“The man fulfilled his task - he got his moment of fame, he attracted attention to himself. People who are in a certain borderline state in psychiatry can take a variety of steps, often very bloody and very dangerous, ”he said.
Linder noted that when a person realized that his role no longer made sense, he just calmly left and gave up.
“I went out calmly. He took out a bag, it is not known what was in this bag, whether there was really explosives there. Who is searching? Why was he searched so superficially? There are a lot of questions to the professionalism of those people who carried out the counter-terrorist operation, ”the expert emphasized.
Linder explained why, when the attacker had already surrendered, the Ukrainian special services needed to fit the APC.
“There was no cordon, but the force factor was present. Then for some reason they all came running, another car would drive up, two more groups of people would run in. Do you know what's the matter? There is the concept of "working off". That is, they must complete the assigned task. They freed the hostages, put the terrorist on the asphalt face, who had already surrendered, ”he said.
On July 21, police detained a man who took bus passengers hostage in Lutsk. Nobody was hurt as a result of the incident. SBU opened criminal proceedings under Part 1 of Art. 258 ("Terrorist act") of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. During the negotiations, the President of the country Volodymyr Zelensky, at the request of the attacker, published a video message with an appeal to “watch the film“ Earthlings ”, which was later deleted.
