The Eighth Administrative Court of Appeal in Lviv has ruled to ban another pro-Russian party, the Social Patriotic Assembly of Slavs (SPAS). UNN reports this with reference to the SBU press service.
Details
Thanks to the SBU's evidence base, the Eighth Administrative Court of Appeal in Lviv has decided to ban another pro-Russian party. It is the Social Patriotic Assembly of Slavs (SPAS), which conducts information and subversive activities in favor of the aggressor country
According to the SBU, after the start of the full-scale Russian invasion, representatives of the banned political party "dispersed" almost throughout the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine.
Currently, the head of this political party, Eduard Kovalenko, is hiding from justice in the temporarily occupied Kherson region, where he is in direct contact with the FSB.
At the behest of the Russian secret service, he and his party associates publicly support the aggressive war against Ukraine. There, they agitate local residents to support the aggressor and join the ranks of its occupation groups.
Also, supporters of racism speak to the Russian media allegedly on behalf of "ordinary citizens" of Ukraine and justify the war crimes of the Russian Federation.
Recall
In September 2022, Security Service investigators notified Kovalenko in absentia of suspicion under Article 28, paragraph 2, and Article 111, paragraph 2, of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (high treason committed under martial law by prior conspiracy by a group of persons).
The indictment was sent to court.
