⚡️The Supreme Court allowed the Stolychniy market to re-challenge the seizure of 139 hectares of land, — media.
⭕️Back in 2021, the court froze the land where the Stolychniy market operates. Although the criminal case concerns only 18 hectares, an additional 139 hectares were seized. Moreover, SAP prosecutor Rostyslav Batih himself confirmed in writing that these plots are unrelated to the case.
For years the market tried to challenge the seizure, but the prosecutor’s office insisted that the appeal deadline had passed. And this despite the fact that the company was not even sent a copy of the court ruling.
What’s more, the prosecutor called the act of filing an appeal a “risk of committing another criminal offense” and demanded that the market director’s bail be increased from 5 to almost 20 million UAH. The court refused.
⭕️On 15 October the Supreme Court rejected the prosecution’s arguments about the appeal deadlines, annulled the previous appellate decision, and sent the case back for a new hearing.
⭕️Details in the article from Sudovo-Yurydychna Hazeta.
