He said this on the Espreso TV channel.

"I believe that the person who killed Iryna Farion acted on his ideological motives, but someone used these motives. The question is who used them and why.

Most likely, these motives were used either by the Russian special services or by some organization that claimed responsibility. That is, under the influence of Russian propaganda, they could have decided that Farion's activities were harmful to Russia and decided to kill the person without the consent of the Russian special services," Prytula suggested.

According to the military counterintelligence expert, there are national socialists in Russia who can act without the interference of Russian special services.

"It seems to me that the most likely scenario is that some organization of national socialists in Russia is acting on its own. This confirms that there are indeed national socialists in Russia who can act independently without the interference of the Russian special services. That is, I have two versions that have the right to exist. But both versions must be confirmed," Prytula said.
