All Maidan cases remain under Horbatiuk's control, Lutsenko expects tangible results

The investigation of all the criminal proceedings into crimes against Euromaidan activists in February 2014 will still be conducted by the Special Investigations Department of the Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine and its head Serhiy Horbatiuk, Ukraine's Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutsenko said.

"Not a single investigator, not a single criminal case has been taken from chief of the Department [of special investigations] Serhiy Horbatiuk. All Maidan cases from the first to the last day have been and are under his control," Lutsenko said at a press briefing in Kyiv on Tuesday.

The prosecutor general noted that he expects tangible results of two and a half years of work on these cases.

"I think, the public is also interested in finally bringing to justice the actual murderers who caused serious injuries to our people on the Maidan and the organizers of these atrocities and crimes against humanity," Lutsenko said.

The prosecutor general said that Horbatiuk should ensure that the Maidan cases end up in court. He said there can be no delay with the inquiry into ex-president of Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych's economic crimes.
