“For the time being, it’s at the level of talk that something will be excited there. Draw conclusions prematurely. It may just be a working out of formal grounds, that is, someone said and now it is necessary to open a case. I do not really believe that this situation has any judicial perspective, ”he said.
However, Pogrebinsky noted that "this case has one very serious nuance."
“For the past few months, Lutsenko has been behaving as if he does not expect Poroshenko to win. He began to talk about going to the parliamentary elections in the team of the mayor of Kiev, that is, he showed a certain level of disloyalty. Does this mean that Petro Poroshenko gave the go-ahead for his criminal prosecution, it is difficult to say, and too early. As long as the current president retains chances for re-election, there is no point in waiting for some development, ”the expert concluded.
Earlier, the court ordered NABU to launch an investigation against Lutsenko on suspicion of corruption.
