The Kuzminykh case: SAP prosecutor asks to sentence the MP to 5 years in prison
The High Anti-Corruption Court is considering the case against Servant of the People MP Serhii Kuzminykh.
Today, on 15 October, the court, despite numerous abuses of rights by the defense, was able to move on to the court debates.
The prosecutor has already finished his speech in the debates. He is asking for 5 years of imprisonment for Kuzminykh.
The defense will begin its speech in the debates at the next hearing, because the defense asked for additional time to prepare.
The next hearing will take place on 3 November, when fewer than 3 months will remain until the statute of limitations expires.
But having observed the course of this case all these years, we assume they will try to prolong their speech in the debates and the final statement as much as possible.
Recall that the statute of limitations in this case expires in January of 2027. The HACC and the HACC Appeals Chamber have less than 4 months to hand down a verdict.
According to the prosecution’s version, Kuzminykh was caught taking a bribe of 558 thousand UAH.
