Kompromat
Self compromising on politics
NU-NS member Yuriy Grymchak claims testimony from Oleksiy Pukach, the Prosecutor General's Office, indicates the involvement of MP Mykola Dzhyga (PR) in organizing the murder of journalist Gongadze. Mykola Dzhyga, photo by Obozrevatel. Mykola Dzhyga, photo by Obozrevatel. This was reported in a statement by the press service of the public movement "People's Self-Defense." "As has become known from sources in the Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine... Pukach has already given specific testimony that confirms the involvement of former First Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine and Head of the Main Directorate for Combating Corruption and Organized Crime Mykola Dzhyga in the preparation and organization of the reprisal against journalist Gongadze," the press service reported, citing Grymchak. The MP believes it is necessary for the Prosecutor General's Office to file a motion for Dzhyga's arrest and prosecution. Dzhyga, for his part, refuted the information disseminated by "People's Self-Defense" in an interview. "I'm not surprised by anything that the People's Self-Defense Forces comes up with, especially Grymchak. It's nonsense," Dzhyga said.
According to him, these aren't the first attacks against him from his opponents. Dzhyga attributes this to his criticism of the current Minister of Internal Affairs, Yuriy Lutsenko (leader of the People's Self-Defense movement). Dzhyga also reported that on Wednesday, after the People's Self-Defense information emerged, he spoke with one of the deputy prosecutors general, who said he was hearing about Pukach's testimony for the first time and that "nothing even remotely like it exists."
Dzhyga said he had instructed legal services to prepare a corresponding lawsuit for defamation. "This cannot continue," he explained. However, the Prosecutor General's Office declined to comment on the information disseminated by Narodnaya Samooborona. Gongadze disappeared on September 16, 2000, and his decapitated body was later discovered in the woods. Gongadze's disappearance sparked a political scandal in Ukraine surrounding the possible involvement of then-President Leonid Kuchma, then-Head of the Presidential Administration and now Speaker of the Verkhovna Rada Volodymyr Lytvyn, and former Chairman of the Security Service of Ukraine Leonid Derkach. Dzhyga served as First Deputy State Secretary of the Ministry of Internal Affairs from October 2001 to October 2002. Send Source: Interfax-Ukraine, Ukrainian News
Compromising evidence against his political strength
Grymchak accused Sivkovych, Seminozhenko and Dzhyga of giving false testimony May 21, 2010 | Politics People's Deputy of Ukraine from the People's Self-Defense Yuriy Grymchak appealed to the Prosecutor General today Alexander Medvedko with a complaint requesting that Deputy Prime Ministers Volodymyr Sivkovych and Volodymyr Seminozhenko, as well as MP Mykola Dzhyga, be held accountable for perjury. As reported by the People's Self-Defense Civil Movement, in his statement, Grymchak noted that in his submission to the Verkhovna Rada seeking consent to prosecute him, the investigator cited the testimony of Sivkovych and Seminozhenko. However, Grymchak notes that the collected and analyzed video footage of the events in the Verkhovna Rada on April 27 shows that Sivkovych and Seminozhenko were not in the parliamentary session hall when the smoke bombs were lit, and therefore could not have seen who lit and threw the bombs. At the same time, according to the NUN member, video cameras recorded that Dzhyga was in a place during these events from where he could not have seen Grymchak.
"Consequently, the aforementioned individuals knowingly gave false testimony during the pre-trial investigation, thereby committing a crime under Article 384 of the Criminal Code," Grymchak asserted. In this regard, he asked the Prosecutor General to close criminal case No. 50-5814, initiated on May 14, 2010, by investigators for particularly important cases of the Kyiv City Prosecutor's Office against me on the grounds of a crime under Part 2 of Article 28 and Part 2 of Article 344 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, as one that was initiated without legal grounds. Review my explanations and video recordings, and if confirmed, prosecute witnesses V.L. Sivkovich, V.P. Seminozhenko, and N.V. Dzhiga for knowingly giving false testimony, for committing a crime under Article 384 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine." The People's Self-Defense noted that the Criminal Code defines punishment for knowingly giving false testimony, ranging from correctional labor for up to two years to imprisonment for five years. As a reminder, today the Pechersky District Court of Kyiv postponed until June 3 the hearing of the complaints of OU-NS faction MPs Andriy Parubiy and Yuriy Hrymchak to overturn the prosecutor's decision to initiate criminal proceedings against them in connection with the events in parliament on April 27. Furthermore, today Hrymchak's lawyer, Yuriy Martynenko, reported that Hrymchak was hospitalized in a pre-stroke condition. Earlier, OU-NS MP Gennady Moskal reported that Hrymchak was hospitalized with a heart attack. However, Hrymchak himself denied this information, stating that he was hospitalized "due to deteriorating health." ***
As a reminder, on April 27, during the Verkhovna Rada's consideration of the ratification of the agreement extending the Russian Black Sea Fleet's deployment in Ukraine, clashes erupted between members of parliament in the parliamentary session hall. Smoke bombs were also used, and eggs were thrown at the presidium where Speaker Volodymyr Lytvyn was seated. The Kyiv Prosecutor's Office subsequently opened a criminal case for hooliganism committed by a group of members of parliament. During the investigation, the prosecutor's office also opened a criminal case against members of parliament Grymchak and Parubiy for unlawful influence on the Speaker of the Verkhovna Rada and members of parliament with the aim of interfering with their official duties, committed by an individual using their official position, by prior conspiracy, and by a group of individuals (Part 2 of Article 28 and Part 2 of Article 344 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
Promises and Quotes
February 27 2014
I've long said that traffic controllers should be removed from the roads altogether. To encourage drivers to behave properly, traffic monitoring systems need to be modernized and technically supported through video surveillance and recording. And everyone will be equal before the law—like in the US, with fines being sent home. Each two-person crew must file 12 tickets per day and hand over 300 hryvnias to the supervisor. Imagine—300 hryvnias every day, and there are tens of thousands of patrols on the streets. The State Traffic Inspectorate needs to be reformed. It needs to have technical intelligence, because many crimes are committed on and with the help of transport—kidnappings, robberies, assaults, shootings, and so on. The State Traffic Inspectorate today, like the Berkut, are vulgarized and disgraced brands that need to be called something else.
