(The July 28 news has been updated with the comments of deputy prosecutor general Mykola Holomsha)
On July 28, the investigative group of the Prosecutor's General Office found fragments of a skull which may belong to murdered journalist Georgy Gongadze in Bila Tserkva district of Kyiv region, a representative of the PGO told the Ukrainian News agency.
He said that the fragments were found in the morning.
He also said that the skull was found broken and the experts are trying to piece it together.
The investigation proceeds.
Deputy prosecutor general Mykola Holomsha told the Fifth TV Channel that the skull fragments were found at about 11:00 am, Tuesday.
They were found at the site pointed by the former head of the Interior Affairs Ministry's department of criminal intelligence Oleksii Pukach, who is accused of involvement in the Gongadze's murder.
He failed to call the tool the skull was damaged with.
"It is quite difficult now to call the tool used for crashing this skull. It is up to experts to conclude," the deputy prosecutor general said.
Holomsha said that the analysis of the skull fragments may last for several days.
As Ukrainian News earlier reported, on July 22, deputy chairman of the Security Service of Ukraine Vasyl Hrytsak said that Pukach admitted his involvement in the Gongadze's murder.
Operatives from the Prosecutor-General's Office and the Security Service of Ukraine detained Pukach in the Zhytomyr region on July 21.
Gongadze disappeared on September 16, 2000. His headless body was later found in the woods near Kyiv.
