The Prosecutor General’s Office of Ukraine (PGO) has launched criminal proceedings over crimes committed by Ukrainian MP Yevhen Murayev on charges of treason and deliberately false information about a crime, PGO spokeswoman Larysa Sarhan has said.
“On June 8, 2018, the Ukrainian Prosecutor General’s Office included information in the single register of pretrial investigations on crimes committed by Ukrainian MP Murayev and envisaged by Part 1, Article 111, Part 2, Article 383 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine,” Sarhan wrote on her Facebook page on Friday.
She noted that the reason for opening criminal proceedings was a remark made by People’s Front MP Serhiy Pashynsky from the rostrum of the Ukrainian parliament about Murayev’s illegal actions.
