00:00Arrest after fatal shooting of Ukrainian politician Andriy Paraby

00:04A suspect in the fatal shooting of prominent Ukrainian politician Andriy Paraby has been

00:09arrested, the country's president Volodymyr Zelensky has said. The 54-year-old parliamentarian

00:14was killed by an attacker posing as a courier in the western city of Lviv on Saturday,

00:19sparking a manhunt. Ukraine's interior minister Igor Klemenko said in a statement issued in the

00:24early hours of Monday morning that the suspect had been detained in the western Khmelnytsky

00:28region. Paraby rose to prominence during Ukraine's Euromaidan mass protests, which advocated closer

00:34ties with the EU and brought down pro-Russian former President Viktor Yanukovych in 2014.

00:40Klemenko said the preliminary investigation had found the killing had been

00:43carefully prepared, with Paraby's travel schedule and route mapped out, as well as an escape plan.

00:49He added that Ukraine's national police force would provide further details later.

00:53In a social media post, Zelensky said he had spoken to Chief Prosecutor Russlin

00:58Kravchenko, who advised that the suspect had given an initial testimony.

01:02Urgent investigative actions are currently underway to establish all the circumstances

01:06of this murder, he added, while also thanking law enforcement and prosecutors for

01:11working around the clock. Unverified footage, purportedly of the shooting,

01:16appeared to show a gunman dressed as a courier approaching Paraby on the street

01:19and holding up a weapon as he walked behind him. At a news briefing on Saturday,

01:23Lviv Police Chief Oleksandr Shlyakovsky said the attacker had

01:27fired about eight shots from a firearm. Sources inside Ukraine's law enforcement

01:32agencies told the BBC that the attacker had dressed to look like a worker from delivery

01:36company Glovo. The company said it was

01:39deeply shocked by the crime and would cooperate fully with an investigation.

01:43Paraby was the Speaker of the country's parliament from April 2016 to August 2019.

01:49He was one of the leaders of demonstrations in 2013-14 which called for closer ties with the

01:55European Union. He organized its self-defense teams who guarded the sprawling tent camp in

02:00the heart of the capital Kiev during the protests.
