Prison service: Tymoshenko again refuses to participate in UESU case trial due to political protest
Former Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko has again refused to participate in the hearing of the UESU case in Kharkiv, which is to be held on November 13, the press office of the State Penitentiary Service of Ukraine reported on Friday.
"Prisoner Tymoshenko wrote a letter to the head of Kachanivska Penal Colony No. 54, in which, in particular, she refers to the fact that she examined a summons to the Kyivsky District Court of Kharkiv to participate in the court hearing on November 13 this year, and refuses to come to court," reads the statement.
Tymoshenko justified her refusal to participate in the hearing by the fact that she is currently in hospital and is in a "state of political protest" [probably referring to her hunger striker in protest against electoral fraud].
