“Instead of running on the television screens and to engage in politicking, the only thing I expect from anyone who has information on corruption – immediate transmission to law enforcement authorities, including the NEB. This is the right citizenship”, – said the President.
He called for the investigation in the shortest possible time, then pass the case to the court.
“I hope that in no time the society will receive full information of what and how happened. Because Pawlowski, I think, was head of sector “M”, when it was very difficult in Mariupol. He took an active part in the antiterrorist operation. Should make a very transparent and effective investigation. The perpetrator is brought to justice. Not guilty – there was nothing to begin” – said Poroshenko.
