The Prosecutor General of Ukraine Yuriy Lutsenko said that the charges against Nadiia Savchenko and Volodymyr Ruban will not be dropped. Yuriy Lutsenko writes this on Facebook.

“Release from custody at a preparatory court hearing does not mean the charges have been dropped. The Prosecutor General’s Office insists on the sufficiency of evidence proving that Savchenko and Ruban had committed crimes. I am sure the delivery of heavy weapons from the so-called ‘Donetsk People’s Republic’ for the shelling of the Ukrainian capital will not go unpunished,” said the Prosecutor General.

According to Lutsenko, the election of a measure of restraint or its absence is the exclusive competence of the court, but the fact that suspects of terrorism avoid arrest is a sign of structural problems in the judicial system of Ukraine.

As The Journalist reported, Savchenko-Ruban case passed to Darnitskiy District Court of Kyiv.
