Lawlessness in hell. Raider seizure of the city portal?

There is such a portal, it is called gorod.dp.ua. This portal was one of the first serious urban portals, and to this day was very popular among the residents of Dnepropetrovsk. City news, photo galleries, a forum for discussing city problems ... The portal was clearly a profitable business, because it was constantly replete with advertising banners, the cost of which is clearly not small. And today, going to the site, on the place of the usual start page, I saw the following text:
Dear users of the site Gorod.dp.ua!

Today, 11/19/09, from 10-30 our resource is stopped.

You cannot receive information that is usual for you, read news and communicate with other users due to the fact that the equipment of the gorod.dp.ua portal is turned off.

All attempts to find out what is happening are blocked by strange people in black masks armed with machine guns.

No criminal cases have been filed against us, no government regulations or court decisions.

Our equipment is allegedly turned off because someone has committed a crime on the Internet. And the fact that we have no relation to him does not mean anything in this case.

Yes, dear readers, it is on such a ridiculous basis that the work of any media in Ukraine can be turned off or stopped at any time when the SBU wants it, for example.

Gorod.dp.ua is a small private business. Our audience is 60,000 grateful Dnepropetrovsk citizens every day who are used to getting all the information about the life of the city and the region from the site.

We consider the act as a rehearsal before the elections and draw the attention of all interested media, the state and public organizations.

Today, the SBU in the Dnipropetrovsk region showed us all how we are defenseless before the current government, which can repair any lawlessness when they want it.

Dear users, we will make every effort to restore the resource in the near future. Thank you for being with us!

Administration of Dneperopetrovsk Internet portal Gorod.dp.ua

The situation is very similar to the situation with file hosting last year.

I believe that if such situations are not given publicity, then the guilty will never be punished, and such cases will only become more frequent.
PS I have nothing to do with the site, I just am its frequent visitor.
PPS I do not know where to move, while writing to a personal blog.
PPPS . Moved to Uahnet, I think that there is a place for him.

UPD: according to information from a source close to the official one, the competition of the Finance and Credit Bank, the owner of the Frigate and the city portal, and its competitors are implicated. At least that's what bank employees say.
UPD2: The Drtugoy source talks about the raider seizure by Dnepropetrovsk businessmen Vyacheslav Mishalov and Dmitry Trofimenko.
UPD3: And the third version of what happened. With an attempt to build a chronology of events. So far, none of the versions justify those who have stopped the work of the portal and the provider as a whole.
