“The search, as the element of investigative actions, should be exclusively an instrument of investigation, but not an instrument of discrediting or pressure”, he added.
It should be reminded that the law enforcement officers conducted 19 searches as part of investigation of the case on illegal alienation of communal properties of Kyiv’s territorial community that resulted in losses for more than UAH 500 mln.
