Anti-corruption court in Ukraine can be created before year end

Chief of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) Artem Sytnyk is convinced that it is possible to establish the anti-corruption court in Ukraine before the end of this year.

"An anti-corruption court can be created until the end of 2017," Sytnyk said at open public hearings and discussion of a written NABU's leadership report on the major issues of the Bureau in the parliamentary committee on preventing and combating corruption in Kyiv on Wednesday.

According to Sytnyk, it will be possible to select 50 trial judges to work at the anti-corruption court before the end of the year, and "the only thing that is necessary for this is legislation."

In turn, chairman of the parliament's anti-corruption committee Yehor Sobolev (Samopomich faction) reminded that the bill of anti-corruption courts was registered in the Verkhovna Rada and will be discussed at the committee meeting in the near future.
