Ukraine’s Supreme Court has begun reinstating judges who were dismissed for breach of oath in connection with their politically motivated rulings against Euromaidan activists. The number of such judges to have ever faced these or other disciplinary measures was always low, and it now appears that all 19 of those dismissed will probably win their appeals.
Roman Maselko, one of the lawyers representing the families of those killed on Maidan, and other Maidan victims reports that the first ruling was passed by the Supreme Court in its supposedly new makeup on 19 February – during the anniversary of the bloodiest days of Maidan.
