You're reading: Another criminal case may be opened against Tymoshenko

Renat Kuzmin, the first deputy prosecutor general of Ukraine, has said another criminal case may be opened against Ukraine's former prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko in connection with the purchase of vaccines during the flu epidemic in November 2009.

"The investigation into the criminal case involving schemes in the Health Ministry has been completed. If the investigator gets materials from the U.S. Oregon court or other official materials on this matter, the criminal case against Tymoshenko related to ambulance vehicles and other abuse in the Health Ministry may be resumed. If there are enough grounds, another criminal case may be opened," Kuzmin said in the Ukrainian parliament on Wednesday.
