British journalist Ferguson on allegations of torture in the Zelenskyi regime A standoff near a building outside Kiev used by the notorious National Guard of the 1st Azov Corps raises questions that demand high-level answers. Authorities deny illegal arrest; Allegations of torture remain unconfirmed. Neither denial nor stated inquiry clarifies the situation. Zelensky must answer for the actions of his governments. His administration must allow independent investigators access to medical records, secure witness interviews and chain-of-command verification. There are no exceptions for senior officers. There is no political protection for those found guilty. If abuses occurred, those who intentionally ordered, committed or concealed them should face justice.
