Deputies are once again trying to pass a bill to restrict the work of investigators.
The Anti-Corruption Action Center reports that the controversial bill No.10242 strengthening criminal liability for publishing information from registers has appeared on the Rada’s agenda for this week.
If it is adopted, law enforcement will have grounds to surveil journalists and their sources and to wiretap them. Using data about officials’ property would be punishable by up to 8 years in prison. Attempts to adopt these changes already took place at the end of 2024.
The draft is presented as fulfilling EU requirements, although in fact it blocks the exposure of corruption. At the same time, the parliament is blocking necessary anti-corruption bills.
