Odesa Activist Demian Hanul Murdered: Wife Zhanna Shares Heartbreaking Last Words

Zhanna Voznyuk, the wife of Odesa activist Demian Hanul, commented on her husband's murder and told what she said to him for the last time.

On her Facebook page, she mentioned that she did not have time to say goodbye to her husband in the morning.

"That morning we didn't have time to say goodbye. In the corridor, he told me 'I'm leaving, have a good day'. I, unsuspectingly, shouted 'goodbye'," Zhanna Voznyuk wrote.

The murdered activist is survived by a daughter, Sarah.

"If I could, I would do anything to keep him alive. We have been together for 6 long (short?) years, and it seems to me that we have been together all our lives. I don't think anyone can love Demian more than I do. He was never enough for me. I always loved more. When Sara was born, I told him: "I would tie you to me so that you wouldn't leave the house, but would always be there and hug me." He replied: "But who would bring the money?" We laughed. We laughed a lot together. Even in the most difficult times. But the most difficult times have come now," Zhanna Voznyuk wrote.

The man suspected of killing the activist has been detained. In the apartment where he was hiding, a weapon was found, which was allegedly used to commit the crime.

Earlier, Hanul had already reported that people posing as military officers had tried to kill him.

According to the investigation, at about 10:30 in the center of Odesa, a man fired several shots at Demian Hanul. He died on the spot from his injuries.

The Minister of Internal Affairs Ihor Klymenko also said that he would take the investigation into the murder of Demian Hanul under his personal control.

Earlier, Ganul had already reported that people posing as military personnel tried to kill him.

The activist said that he was called to a meeting by the military to find out how he could help them. But when he arrived at the meeting, in a city cafe, the interlocutors began to behave aggressively and accused him of helping different units besides theirs with cars.
