The lawyer of the head of the State Fiscal Service Roman Nasirov, Igor Stepanov, harshly responded to his ill-wishers and urged them "not to rejoice at someone else's grief".
Thus, Stepanov in an interview with the "Observer" commented on Nasirov's ban on leaving Ukraine for treatment.
"If someone can not be treated abroad, this does not mean that everyone should be banned from treatment there. This time. Secondly, you ask how many activists of Maidan, ATU soldiers, ordinary people visited for treatment abroad. Human life is priceless, it is necessary to fight for it, "said the lawyer.
"So I would ask to stop manipulating. By what right does someone deny a person for treatment? Has Nasirov for 25 years disrupted reforms in medicine? Participated in corruption tenders for the purchase of medicines? Did you get a fortune in the Ministry of Health? What is his fault? On the contrary: he is a child of Chernobyl and was born in 1979 in Chernigov, where after the Chernobyl accident a large radioactive stain fell out. And many people like him can not afford to be treated properly. That's what we need to talk about: a large number of our fellow citizens have fallen into a difficult situation, and we just keep silent about it. This misfortune of society continues to remain a mystery, "he added..
As Stepanov noted, according to all Ukrainian laws a person has the right to be treated, and to choose where it can be done.
"In addition, the operation he did in Ukraine, because there are excellent specialists. And now we are talking about a 10-day course, which has no analogues in our country. By the way, thank God, there have been invitations from European clinics for such treatment, "he said..
"Still, I would have taken the liberty to advise many Facebook activists not to rejoice so stranger to grief. Guys, what you write on Facebook, reacting to the cry of the soul of Roman's wife, is wildly. He has money, but he earned it and paid taxes. And he has the right to life, even if such absurd accusations are brought against him by the new anti-corruption bodies, who need someone to study, and at the same time to PR. "- added the lawyer.
As the "Observer" reported earlier, the head of the GFS, Roman Nasirov, urged NABU to give him the opportunity to go to the US for treatment of papillary thyroid cancer. Nasirov asked the detectives to return his passport, temporarily take off his electronic bracelet and ensure unimpeded exit from the territory of Ukraine.
To the request, he enclosed the forensic report on his state of health.
In turn, NABU refused to release Nasirov for treatment in the US.
At the end of April, 2017, Nasirov was operated in the Ukrainian scientific and practical center for endocrine surgery, transplantation of the endocrine organs and tissues of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine.
On March 7, the court arrested Nasirov for 60 days with the right to make a pledge of 100 million hryvnia. On March 16, Roman Nasirov's wife made a pledge for him.
