The Ukrainian investigation has identified about 100 people responsible in one or another way for the Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 (MH17) downing in the summer of 2014, Ukrainian First Deputy Prosecutor General Dmytro Storozhuk said.
“The investigation has identified about a hundred people related to the tragedy,” Storozhuk said at a news briefing in Kyiv on Dec. 14.
“We are not saying today who is a suspect or a witness, because the role of each person hasn’t yet been determined,” he said.
Storozhuk also told that Ukraine would support the initiative on the consideration of the criminal case on MH17 crash in the Netherlands.
“At the moment, we consider several options. The Ukrainian side naturally supports consideration of the case in a national court of the Netherlands,” he said.
According to Storozhuk, this is the option that is discussed today.
“Any judicial consideration in Ukraine will be politicized, there will be constant accusations of bias, as Ukraine is a party to an armed conflict on our territory,” he added.
