Law enforcement officers who detained the “diamond prosecutors” are being framed by the GPU
27 October, at a meeting of the parliamentary Anti-Corruption Committee, Deputy Prosecutor General Vitaliy Kasko and Deputy Head of the SBU Viktor Trepak said: pressure is being exerted on the investigators who detained the “diamond prosecutors” Shapakin and Korniyets.
Criminal proceedings are being opened against them.
This was reported on his Facebook page by Member of Parliament, Secretary of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Preventing and Combating Corruption, Dmytro Dobrodomov.
“Deputy Prosecutor General Vitaliy Kasko and First Deputy Head of the SBU Viktor Trepak at the Anti-Corruption Committee meeting confirmed facts of pressure, internal investigations and even criminal cases against the investigators who detained the ‘diamond prosecutors.’ Moreover, this is happening with the direct involvement of Prosecutor General Shokin himself and the head of the Internal Security Service, Dziuban,” wrote Dmytro Dobrodomov.
According to the MP, at the meeting Kasko and Trepak also said: everything possible is now being done to prevent the ‘diamond prosecutors’ case from being brought to completion. Instead, they want to punish those who exposed corrupt officials within the GPU.
“Now deputies and representatives of civil society must support the truly worthy law enforcement officers who publicly stood up against the corrupt system,” emphasized Dmytro Dobrodomov.
It should be noted, 22 October Dmytro Dobrodomov has already submitted a parliamentary inquiry to Prosecutor General Viktor Shokin regarding the existence of criminal proceedings and internal investigations concerning V. V. Kasko. And at the Committee meeting it was decided to inform the President of Ukraine about the facts voiced by Kasko. They also decided to appeal to the GPU with demands to ensure the investigation of the ‘diamond prosecutors’ case.
The Anti-Corruption Committee will also appeal to the Chair of the Verkhovna Rada, Volodymyr Hroysman, requesting that Shokin’s report on the progress of the investigation in the ‘diamond prosecutors’ case be heard at a plenary session.
