Ukrainian courts to pass up to 15 sentences against Russian soldiers shortly – military prosecutor

Chief Military Prosecutor of Ukraine Anatoliy Matios is sure that within following months, Ukrainian courts will pass up to 15 sentences against Russian servicemen.

"I'm sure, it's the position of the Prosecutor General's Office and investigators of the military prosecutor's office that in the coming months we'll have sentences by Ukrainian courts, particularly, the first step is sending cases to the court regarding those living Russian Armed Forces representatives who are in Ukraine," Matios said.

Matios said that the trials will be held in public.

He said that his agency was currently investigating over 3,000 criminal proceedings unified into one under articles of criminal terrorist organizations, international damage to property, and others.

"Over 3,000 persons have already received notices of suspicion," Matios said.
