Rechters trachten corruptiebestrijder om te kopen

Twee rechters uit de stad Dnipro die al waren beschuldigd van corruptie hebben geprobeerd om directeur Nazar Cholodnitski van de speciale afdeling voor fraudebestrijding van het Openbaar Ministerie om te kopen. Cholodnitski waarschuwde echter de staatsveiligheidsdienst SBOe nadat de rechters hadden aangekondigd dat zij ''als verstandige mensen onder elkaar'' van gedachten wilden wisselen.

Toen het tweetal eenmaal in Cholodnitski's kantoor waren gearriveerd, werden ze in de boeien geslagen toen de eerste bundels bankbiljetten op tafel waren gelegd. De rechters bleken 50.000 dollar in contanten bij zich te hebben. Ze zitten vast. Cholodnitski heeft laten weten dat hij bij een rechtszaak tegen het tweetal zal getuigen.
