Rada wants to subordinate NABU to Prosecutor General today, - Zhelezniak
The Verkhovna Rada wants to adopt an amendment that will allow NABU to be subordinated to the Prosecutor General.
This was announced by MP Yaroslav Zhelezniiak, Censor.NET reports.
"Today, through the draft law 12414 (changes to the Criminal Code), they will pass an amendment to subordinate the NABU to the Prosecutor General and allow the transfer of cases under the NABU's jurisdiction to other law enforcement agencies during martial law.... Well, after this bill, the SAPO will actually turn into wedding generals. In short, NABU and SAPO will be nullified," the MP said.
Zhelezniak noted that the Rada is going to vote for this bill today.
"Just the first page and a half...
1. The head of the prosecutor's office for SAPO prosecutors will be the Prosecutor General, not the head of the SAPO. This means that the Prosecutor General will now determine which prosecutor will oversee NABU investigations.
2. The Prosecutor General will have the right to request any NABU proceedings and transfer them to another prosecutor for examination.
3. The provision prohibiting the withdrawal of proceedings from the NABU is being removed," he explained.
Searches at NABU and SAPO
