The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry has confirmed that Interpol has put Kyiv Mayor Leonid Chernovetsky's son-in-law Viacheslav Suprunenko on its wanted list, however there is no information about Suprunenko on Interpol's Web site.
According to the office of the Ukrainian Bureau of Interpol, Ukraine’s citizen Suprunenko was put on international wanted list through Interpol channels at the request of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine and his data were put on the Web site of Interpol under the red notice category, the PR department of the Interior Ministry reported.
At the same time, the Interior Ministry has explained in its report that the General Secretariat of Interpol places the information about a wanted person on its Web site under the red notice section only if it is requested by a sovereign state.
People don’t mentioned on the Web site can still be searched by Interpol.
The Prosecutor General’s Office opened on April 11, 2011, a criminal case against Kyiv City Council deputy Viacheslav Suprunenko and leader of the Chernovetsky Bloc faction in the country Denys Komarnytsky on charge of committing an assault.
In 2008, Kuzmin opened a criminal case due to an assault on lawyer Ivan Hrantsev, a partner of the Corporate Technology law firm, in which Suprunenko and Komarnytsky were involved.
The assault occurred on September 2, 2005 in the building of the Kyiv City Bureau of Technical Inventory.
The Segodnia newspaper, citing its own sources, said that the conflict had been triggered by property disputes around the Knyha (Book) printing plant, which is located on Artema Street in Kyiv.
However, immediately after the case was opened, Prosecutor General Oleksandr Medvedko issued a resolution cancelling the criminal case against Suprunenko and Komarnytsky.
