Ukraine's Prosecutor General's Office has said the murder in Kyiv of former Russian lower parliament deputy Denis Voronenkov, who was an important witness in the case against former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, will not affect the treason case against him.

"The position of the prosecution is that we don't have any "key" witnesses or any witness, who are not "key" witnesses. There are more 100 of them and each is important," said military prosecutor Ruslan Kravchenko on Tuesday. He added that each witness in the case has given and continues to give evidence.

Kravchenko said enough evidence has been collected to convict Yanukovych of the treason charge.
