Justice Delayed & Denied
When it comes to investigating the crimes of the powerful, Ukraine’s law enforcement and justice system have proven to be impotent. No high-profile murders have been solved. And high-level corruption, which by official estimates took $40 billion out of Ukraine from 2010-2014 alone, remains unpunished. As Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman said at the Yalta European Strategy conference on Sept. 17 about the failure to prosecute anyone for major crimes: “You can’t catch a big fish with a small, thin rod.”
The Kyiv Post chronicles some the most high-profile and publicized cases that languish.
