The attempts of the authority to replace ‘inconvenient’ advocates in the court on the state treason case of former president of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych make the trial illegal. Vitaly Serdyuk, the advocate of Yanukovych expressed his opinion as 112 Ukraine broadcasted.
‘As we knew on the preparations of the scenario on our removal from this process by the court and authority as we are inconvenient lawyers. This scenario was used for the first time in Pechersk court when we planned to submit the evidence on the shootings of our citizens in Maidan. Now, such announcement was made to create the preconditions to implement the scenario to replace us with a state suitable advocate’, he said.
