As the publication notes, the hearing in the case will take place on Monday, December 18, in the afternoon in the Helsinki court.
Deputy Prosecutor General Jukka Rappe previously decided to launch a preliminary investigation into Thorden’s possible crimes in Ukraine.
According to him, the investigation will take place in Finland, since according to the decision of the Supreme Court, Torden cannot be extradited to Ukraine.
In turn, Thorden denies all accusations.
Detention of Yan Petrovsky
At the end of August, Finnish police detained 36-year-old Russian Yan Petrovsky, who is suspected of committing terrorist crimes in Ukraine.

According to media reports, the Russian is a radical nationalist who fought against the Armed Forces of Ukraine in 2014-2015.
