The leader of the Movement of New Forces party and former Georgian president, Mikheil Saakashvili, has said he plans to sue the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) and to file a lawsuit on the protection of his rights at the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR).

"The SBU kidnapped me from home, used force, without law and a single document... We are preparing a lawsuit against the SBU for bandits, an attack, abduction of a person. We are also preparing a lawsuit at the ECHR. In the lawsuit I will demand compensation for my abduction," he told reporters outside the building of the SBU's main investigation department in Kyiv on Tuesday, where he arrived for questioning.
