Russia - Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Saturday 26 March. [Ukrainian sources]  Empty Former head of SBU in Kyiv Shchoholev, suspected of crimes against Maidan activists, can be released due to delays in courts, - human rights activist

Sat Mar 26, 2016 10:29 am
The scheme by which Rostyslav Zavorotnii, suspected of arming "titushky" during the Maidan protests, is to be released on March 27, can also be applied for the release of the former head of the SBU in Kyiv and Kyiv region Oleksandr Shchoholev, who headed the SBU "anti-terrorist" operation on Feb. 18-20, 2014.

Human rights activist and executive director of the Lawyers Advisory Group Taras Hataliak said, Censor.NET reports.

According to him, the Court of Appeal of Kyiv is to determine the jurisdiction of the case in 12:15 a.m. today, i.e. it will assign the district court which will consider the indictment of the prosecutor's office regarding Shchoholev. If the Court of Appeal or the district court delay the decision, the term of Shchoholev's custody may simply end and the law enforcers will be forced to release him, he stressed.

According to him, Shchoholev's lawyers deliberately delay the process to declare the disqualification of judges, prosecutors, etc. "The risk that Shchoholev may eventually be released is quite high," the human rights activist said.

Hataliak stressed that such a scheme has already been used several times, in particular, in the case of Zavorotnii. He does not exclude that there is some "headquarters", where various procedural moves are designed to delay consideration of cases, which leads to the release of the key suspects in crimes against Maidan activists.

Russia - Ukraine crisis. News in brief. Saturday 26 March. [Ukrainian sources]  Empty PPB congress unseated Tomenko and Firsov referring to non-existent law, - MP Leshchenko

Sat Mar 26, 2016 11:03 am

Poroshenko Bloc deputy Serhii Leshchenko deems the party congress' decision on unseating Mykola Tomenko and Yehor Firsov to be a derision.

He said it in a comment to Censor.NET.

The MP stressed that this decision can not be based on article 81 of the Constitution, which the closed party congress referred to. "According to this article, the congress can take such a decision based on a law. But such a law does not exist," Leshchenko said.

He also stressed that together with a number of colleagues they will oppose unseating Tomenko and Firsov. However, the deputy could not answer how parliamentarians can challenge such a decision.

In turn, former PPB faction deputy Viktor Chumak confirmed in a comment to Censor.NET that the party leadership considered his expulsion but to no avail as Chumak was elected in a single-mandate constituency, as well as several other former BPP deputies. "There are nine people like me. They'll have to expel all or nobody," he explained, while not ruling out attempts of being pressed in the future.

As previously reported, on March 25, a closed PPB congress took place in Kyiv. It adopted a number of decisions, in particular, supporting the candidacy of Verkhovna Rada Speaker Volodymyr Hroisman for the post of prime minister and depriving Mykola Tomenko and Yehor Firsov of deputy mandates.

Not surprising.
Putin targets hospitals and schools in Syria, so no reason why his army - Shaun Walker's "DNR guys" - won't target doctors and medical facilities in Ukraine.

Russia - now one of the most dangerous countries in the world.
You simply can't do anything there. Do anything vaguely normal, and you get arrested, and put in jail for years and years.
