The court ordered the MP to pay a fine in favor of Avakov and Ministry of interior.
The Kyiv court of appeals dismissed the appeal of the people’s Deputy (Blok of Petro Poroshenko) Sergey Leshchenko on the case of slander against the Ministry of internal Affairs and its head Arsen Avakov. This was announced by the Minister of internal Affairs Arsen Avakov in Twitter.
“The court: Sergey Leshchenko is a liar. The appeal is dismissed and confirmed that a woman was lying when he said that he was being followed,” wrote Avakov.
He also showed two court decisions.
In particular, June 13, Podolsky district court of Kyiv ruled to satisfy the claims of Avakov and Ministry of internal Affairs, and to admit that the information spread by Leshchenko about alleged surveillance and listening to his phone conversations, degrades the honor, dignity and business reputation.
At the same time the court ordered the MP to pay the court fee in favor of Avakov – 551,21 UAH and MIA – 1102,40 UAH.
However, Leshchenko appealed the decision.
On 24 October the court of Appeal quashed the complaint of the MP and left in force the decision of the Podolsk regional court. The MP also needs to refute the information.
