It is reported that the defense was in favor of considering criminal proceedings on charges of former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych consisting of three professional judges without jury. This is reported by UNN.
The lawyer of the defendant Vitaly Serdyuk insists that consideration of all issues related to this case, including the preparatory meeting, be conducted exclusively in the composition of three professional judges. Counsel argues that almost 70% of jury-judges who are announced on the site of KSCA are people who previously worked in law enforcement agencies. This is what caused the unwillingness to involve them in the business.
Earlier, URA-Inform reported that Yanukovych did not come to video communication in court.
