Case on accident involving Trukhin sent to SBI since possible subject of offense is MP – Interior minister
KYIV. Sept 6 (Interfax-Ukraine) – The police handed over the materials of the case on the road accident with the participation of MP Oleksandr Trukhin (Servant of the People) to the State Bureau of Investigations (SBI), since it is the Bureau of Investigations that investigates the cases, the subject of which is the member of parliament, Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Denys Monastyrsky said.
"The law prescribes that if a possible subject of the offense is a special subject, who is a deputy, then the investigation should be carried out by the SBI. Therefore, the case has now been transferred to the SBI," the Interior Minister said in an exclusive interview with Interfax-Ukraine.
He added: "I am sure that all the answers to the questions we have will be received in the near future."
