The Prosecutor General’s Office of Ukraine conducts searches within the framework of the case on crackdown on Revolution of Dignity protests in eight houses of former officials and their relatives.

As the Ukrayinska Pravda Ukrainian online newspaper reports, prosecutor of the Prosecutor General’s Office of Ukraine Olha Koriniak said this at a news briefing on Tuesday.

“Searches are ongoing at 8 sites. Meanwhile, we are talking only about Andriy Kliuyev [former head of the Presidential Administration] and Volodymyr Sivkovych [former deputy secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine]. However, we investigate of complicity of others in these crimes,” she said.

The prosecutor refused to disclose other persons whose houses are being searched.

According to her, the searches are still going on.

The investigators are looking for the evidence base that could confirm the participation of former officials in the crimes and the evidence that could point to place of their current stay.

She also reported that there were no obstacles during these searches.
