Ex-head of Ukraine's Defense Intelligence Agency Burba heard in restricted access room in presence of members of parliamentary Interim Investigative Commission – MP Bezuhla

KYIV. Sept 25 (Interfax-Ukraine) – The hearing of former head of the Defense Intelligence Agency of Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense Vasyl Burba was held in a restricted access room in the presence of members of the Interim Investigative Commission of the Verkhovna Rada on the investigation of possible illegal actions of representatives of state authorities and other persons against the sovereignty of Ukraine, said its chairwoman Maryana Bezuhla (Servant of the People faction).

"The hearing [of Burba] took place in an appropriate restricted access room and with appropriate conditions in the presence of members of the Interim Investigative Commission," Bezuhla said at a briefing on Friday evening.

In turn, MP of the European Solidarity faction Mykhailo Zabrodsky noted that the picture that is emerging today brings no credit to the Ukrainian parliament and discredits the very idea of the Interim Investigative Commission.

"It is clear that the commission sets itself completely different goals – far from looking for answers to the questions that society poses to the commission and to MPs. Namely: who gave the order to cancel the operation and who is guilty in the fact that the planned operation which lasted for more than one year, did not end with a successful implementation," the party’s press service quoted the deputy as saying.
