Changing measure of restraint for protesters doesn't meet opposition demands – UDAR
UDAR MP Rostyslav Pavlenko has said that changing the measure of restraint for detained Maidan activists does not mean the fulfillment of the opposition's demands.
"People have had the measure of restraint changed, people have been released from prison, but they are under house arrest, which means they are limited in their rights, and criminal proceedings hang over each of them. This is not amnesty, this is not the fulfillment of the opposition's demands," he said at a briefing at the national resistance headquarters on Friday.
Earlier on Friday, reports said that the court had changed the measure of restraint for the last of the 234 arrested protesters to house arrest.
Prosecutor General Viktor Pshonka said that after protesters vacate Hrushevskoho Street and seized government buildings, criminal proceedings against the activists would be closed.
