Taras Bezpalyy spoke at the expert discussion “Suspicion to Special Subjects: Conflict of Laws and Reasons for Escaping Liability”

On September 13th, 2018 in Kiev expert discussion “Suspicion to Special Subjects: Conflict of Laws and Reasons for Escaping Liability”, organized by the Civil Oversight Council at the National Anticorruption Bureau of Ukraine together with the Bar Association of Ukraine, was held.

During the discussion, Taras Bezpalyy, counsel at Legal Alliance Company, commented on the issue of position of defence with respect to service of suspicion notice to special subjects. Mr Bezpalyy also noted that the law sets an exhaustive list of subjects which have the right to inform a special category of persons of the suspicion, i.e. carry all procedural actions upon which a person will acquire the status of suspect.

During the discussion speakers, who were in particular court experts, representatives of the National Anticorruption Bureau of Ukraine, judges and practising advocates analysed such issues as peculiarities of announcing suspicion to judges, whether the Prosecutor General and head of the Specialized Anticorruption Prosecutor’s Office can delegate their powers to detectives and prosecutors, how to avoid conflicts of laws and ensure fair pre-trial restriction to suspects, and also to improve the procedure for criminal prosecution of special subjects.
