Kuzminykh Refused to Be Questioned by the Prosecutor: WACS Hearing Postponed Again
At the High Anti-Corruption Court, the questioning of People’s Deputy from Servant of the People Serhiy Kuzminykh again was not completed. During the hearing he refused to answer the prosecutor’s questions, claiming that the case against him was allegedly fabricated.
This was reported by the Anti-Corruption Center.
The hearing began with a defense motion to postpone. The reason given was that Kuzminykh’s new lawyer required medical assistance.
The MP himself, whose questioning the WACS began last week, said he needed the presence of an attorney and that the questioning could not continue without one.
The panel of judges decided to continue the hearing. At the same time, after an unsworn statement by Kuzminykh, he refused to move to a question-and-answer format with the prosecutor.
The MP explained his position with claims that the case against him was being fabricated. He also said he was ready to answer questions from his own defense attorney.
Because the lawyer did not arrive that day, the court announced a recess. The next hearing was scheduled for 6 October.
