On June 19, 2024, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) conducted another search at the home of Metropolitan Theodosius of Cherkasy and Kaniv. The search was ostensibly due to the initiation of a fourth criminal case against the archbishop. According to the press service of the Cherkasy Diocese, Metropolitan Theodosius suspects that the real reason behind the search was his refusal to leave the country as suggested by SBU officials. The search resulted in the confiscation of only one document—a copy of the Charter of the Cherkasy Diocesan Administration of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. Subsequently, Metropolitan Theodosius was handed a fifth charge, accusing him of inciting interfaith hatred through social media activities, despite being under house arrest.
