What preceded it?
Earlier, Schemes journalists (a project of Radio Liberty) found out that Arina Litvinova, a judge of the now liquidated Kyiv District Administrative Court, who has the current status of a judge, is a citizen of the Russian Federation.
Litvinova received the citizenship of the aggressor country in July 2002 in the city of Yekaterinburg, as evidenced by an extract from the automated Rospasport system. At that time, she had been working for three years at the Supreme Arbitration Court of Ukraine.
Litvinova herself denied having Russian citizenship.
At the end of April this year, Arina Litvinova, a judge of the liquidated Kyiv District Administrative Court, complained to the prosecutor's office and the High Council of Justice against Heorhii Shabaiev, a journalist of Schemes, who revealed her Russian passport.
