Law enforcement officials believe the murder was committed by three people.

In Spain, a court has ordered the investigation into the murder of former Viktor Yanukovych adviser Andriy Portnov, who was shot dead in Madrid.

This is reported by European Pravda.

Investigators are now focusing on analyzing surveillance footage from nearby cameras, especially at a university dormitory across the street from the school, which could prove crucial in identifying the getaway vehicle.

Police officials speculate that the murder was committed by three people: the killer himself, as well as two accomplices who helped him escape.

Experts are also now figuring out the type of weapon used to shoot Portnov, as well as what kind of bullets were used.

The agency's sources also said that preliminary results of the investigation show that the killer fired at least nine shots into Portnov's back, as nine shell casings were found at the scene, although the exact number of bullets that hit him is not yet known.
