Businessman Seyar Kurshutov won a lawsuit against Heorhiy Tuka in a defamation case, — UNIAN
The Pechersky District Court of Kyiv found false the accusations that the former deputy minister spread about the businessman on Facebook and Telegram. The court ordered Tuka to publish a retraction after the decision takes legal effect and to compensate for moral damages and court costs. The total amount of claimed expenses exceeds 420 thousand UAH.
“For me this is already a matter of principle. I want Heorhiy Tuka and those like him to be held accountable for their public words in the manner prescribed by law. I will seek not only a court decision but also its enforcement. If the decision is not complied with voluntarily, I will use lawful mechanisms for compulsory collection. Military medics need funds,” Kurshutov said.
All recovered funds will be transferred by the businessman to the First Volunteer Mobile Hospital named after Mykola Pirogov, which he has been assisting since 2016.
