Lawlessness of regional state power in Dnipropetrovsk region

Lawlessness of regional state power dominates in Dnipropetrovsk region and the next incidents are the evidences of it.

On 14th August 2014 Head of State Agency of Land Resources of Ukraine Serhiy Rudyk arrived in Dnipropetrovsk, where he met the local ecclesiastics of Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Kyiv Patriarchate and gave them land documents to build their new temple in the city. Then Rudyk met wounded militaries in Dnipropetrovsk military hospital and talked about selecting of land areas for them in the region. After these meetings S. Rudyk was abducted by several stocky men and was brought in Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration, where armed men demanded him to dismiss Vadym Chuvpylo from the post of the First Deputy Head of State Agency of Land Resources of Dnipropetrovsk region and to appoint on this post Olha Huhnina, one of the lawyers of the group "Private", co-owner and co-founder of which is oligarch Ihor Kolomoyskyy, Head of Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration. Rudyk refused to do their demands, so armed strangers put handcuffs on Rudyk's hands and sack on his head and drove with him in the minibus around the city some time, and then brought him in some basement, after what - again in Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration, where they pledged him to write an assertion about the entry in one of volunteer battalions, formed in Dnipropetrovsk region. During all that time of Rudyk's specific captivity Deputies Head of Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration Borys Filatov and Hennadiy Korban said mainly in Ukrainian mass media, controled by Kolomoyskyy, or that Serhiy Rudyk had willingly gone in Donbas to fight terrorists, or that he trained in some volunteer battalion and prepared to go in Donbas. And only because that abduction caused big resonance in Ukrainian society and Ukrainian TV-channels showed the reports about this incident, Rudyk was released from such captivity.

Another incident of lawlessness of Dnipropetrovsk regional state power. Head of Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration Ihor Kolomoyskyy dislikes Public Prosecutor of Dnipropetrovsk region Roman Fedyk, about what he said in special press conference, giving the interview in September 2014. Though R. Fedyk dismissed from the public prosecutor's office after the victory of V. Yanukovych at Ukrainian presidential elections-2010 and worked lawyer during Yanukovych's presidency, and was appointed on the post of Dnipropetrovsk region's public prosecutor only on 6th March 2014, while oligarch I. Kolomoyskyy had kind and warm relations with President Yanukovych, and the video with Kolomoyskyy's personal congratulations on Yanukovych's 61st and 63rd birthdays are wonderful prooves of such fine relations between them. That video was published by Ukrainian newspaper "Vesti" ("News") and I. Kolomoyskyy is the first who congratulates V.Yanukovych in 2011 year. 

And on the next video I. Kolomoyskyy is the last who congratulates V. Yanukovych in 2013. Besides it, You can watch so-called "European" mayor of Lviv Andriy Sadovyy between Yanukovych's congratulators in 2011 and 2013.

And in 2014 Head of Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration Kolomoyskyy and his team of the officials decided that they had some right to be judges in Dnipropetrovsk region and to make so-called lustration of that people whom they disliked. But what brutal methods of "lustration" they use! For example, on 30th September 2014 so-called "public activists" held a meeting in front of the building of Public Prosecutor's Office in Dnipropetrovsk region and demanded a resignation of regional public prosecutor R. Fedyk. Then they broke the main door of the building and after that - the door of public prosecutor's cabinet. Self-named "popular lustrators" pledged Roman Fedyk to write the assertion to leave his public prosecutor's post, and when he refused, some persons hit him in his face several times, tore public prosecutor's sign off his jacket and strewed the dust on his head from the cabinet's dust-bin. And again Deputies Head of Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration B.Filatov and H.Korban brutal call names and very actively criticize R. Fedyk like S. Rudyk in social networks, and even name ultimatums to Ukraine's President Poroshenko witn a demand to dismiss Fedyk from his present state post. Because Kolomoyskyy's team says that candidature of Public Prosecutor of Dnipropetrovsk region Roman Fedyk wasn't co-ordinated with Head of Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration Ihor Kolomoyskyy, though there wasn't a necessity in such co-ordination according to Ukrainian legislation. There is only huge desire of oligarch Kolomoyskyy to rule everything in Dnipropetrovsk region. You know, it's the example of some feudalism in the XXI century!  

On 9th November 2014 Head of Central Electoral Commission of Ukraine Mykhaylo Okhendovskyy asserted that district electoral commissions of electoral districts no.30 (Dniprodzerzhynsk, Dnipropetrovsk region) and no. 50 (Krasnoarmiysk, Donetsk region) established the results, which were based on falsified protocols of these electoral commissions and weren't coincided with the voting of ballot papers of electoral districts no.30 and no.50. And, as Okhendovskyy asserted, falsifiers also forced district electoral commissions of electoral district no.38 (Novomoskovsk, Dnipropetrovsk region) to change the results of the voting of that electoral district. That's why Central Electoral Commission of Ukraine (CECU) decided to count votes of the electoral districts no.30 and no.50 at the second time and simultaneously appealed to police and public prosecutor's office. Such decisions of Central Electoral Commission of Ukraine caused negative reaction of the influential falsifiers and M. Okhendovskyy began to get "requests to stop", direct threats and also hints from some people about serious complaints of I. Kolomoyskyy because of the activity of CECU. As Okhendovskyy declared this day, stopping of the pressure on CECU with the purpose to get false electoral results and continueing of legal electoral process on the electoral districts no.30, no. 38 and no. 50 will be the best prooves of Kolomoyskyy's innocence of the falsifiction on three above-mentioned electoral electoral districts. Though I must also to write here that there are many questions about present Head of CECU M. Okhendovskyy, who was elected on this post in July of 2013 and before it in June of 2007 he was re-elected the member of CECU by the quota of the Party of the Regions. 

Anyway, all that Dnipropetrovsk region's incidents are very remote to democracy and lawfulness. Besides it, Head of Dnipropetrovsk Regional State Administration Ihor Kolomoyskyy has not only Ukraine's citizenship, but also Israel's and Cyprus' citizenships, as he admitted in Ukrainian mass media in October of 2014, and he was appointed on his present state post in Ukraine on 2nd March 2014, earlier living mainly in Switzerland since the beginning of the 2000's.

Adding to all, the most of new volunteer battalions and special subunits are forming exactly in Dnipropetrovsk region and the most frequent cases of burials of unidentified ATO's participants are happening in Dnipropetrovsk region too. So there is a few strange, difficult and scareful situation in this Ukraine's region.
