Lutsenko alleges 2 witnesses’ protocols falsified
The Pechersky District Court in Kyiv has sent a statement from former Internal Affairs Minister Yury Lutsenko regarding alleged falsification of two witnesses’ protocols to the Prosecutor General’s Office.
While studying the material, Yury Lutsenko noticed that on pp. 15 and 16 of volume 17 two protocols from different witnesses are written in the same handwriting and both have the same signature.
He states that in accordance with the Criminal Procedure Code this is an offence by staff of the Internal Security Service of the Rivne Police, as well as of the investigators Serhiy Voichenko and Yevhen Zinchenko who included the protocols in the criminal file.
