Interpol announced the international search of the ex-President of Ukraine Yanukovych

Interpol announced the international search for the ex-president of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych and some of his confidants, who, after the execution of the Maidan in February 2014, fled to Russia. About it сообщил Head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Arsen Avakov.

“Today, several months after the appeal in March 2014, argumentation and preparation of explanations, Interpol, at the prepared requests of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine and the SBU, a special Interpol commission made a decision. Put on the international wanted list by Interpol (red card - detention for extradition to Ukraine): Yanukovych Viktor Fedorovich, Yanukovych Alexander Viktorovich, Azarov Nikolai Yanovich, Bagatyreva Raisa Vasilievna, Kolobov Yu. V. (former Minister of Finance of Ukraine), Dzekon G.B. (ex-head of Ukrtelecom),” said the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine.

He also refuted the statements of the Prosecutor General of Russia that Ukraine allegedly did not submit requests for the extradition of Yanukovych and his associates. “The federal government organization “GIAC of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia”, consistently ignoring all requests from Ukraine, did not put a search for Yanukovych and Co. into the search system in the CIS countries. Thereby violating all established procedures. Today, Russia is ignoring documents on the search for 24 people who previously held high positions in Ukraine,” Avakov said, writes AmericaRu.com
