* From the reports (2016) by Global Rights Compliance LLP: "For example, <[[United Nations Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine|UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine]]> has documented specific allegations of enforced disappearances, arbitrary detention and ill-treatment by the members of volunteer battalions such as "[[Aidar Battalion|Aydar]]", "Dnipro-1", "[[Kyiv-1]]" and "[[Kyiv-2]]"; "The Volodymyr Kulmatytsky case gives rise to similar questions concerning the absence of war crimes charges. The accused persons in this case were charged with illegal confinement (Article 146(2)) and illegally handling arms (Article 263(1)). It is alleged that Mr Kulmatytsky, former deputy mayor of [[Sloviansk]], was kidnapped by three soldiers and one commander (Mr. A) of the Battalion Dnipro-1 (Ukrainian police) and murdered later that day by Mr. A. Mr. A was informed that Mr. Kulmatytsky was involved in financing [[Donetsk People's Republic|DPR]] formations".<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.globalrightscompliance.com/uploads/bc006cfbcfa0653f85c62829b9a81ea7.pdf |title=Archived copy |website=www.globalrightscompliance.com |access-date=30 June 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170404215541/http://www.globalrightscompliance.com/uploads/bc006cfbcfa0653f85c62829b9a81ea7.pdf |archive-date=4 April 2017 |url-status=dead}}</ref>
