Lawyers and the family of Gennady Kernes, who was buried today in Kharkiv, will insist in court on his rehabilitation in the 2014 case.
Let us remember that the mayor and two of his guards were charged under three articles of the Penal Code: illegal imprisonment or kidnapping, torture and threat of murder of the activists of the Kharkiv Euromaidan.
“Rumors circulate online about the alleged closure on December 24 at the Poltava Kievsky District Court of the hearings in the case against Kernes on the events of January 2014 in connection with the death of the defendant. This is false information . Family and lawyers object, because it is not exonerating ground, “Kernes’s lawyer Oleksandr Gunchenko told Ukrinform.
According to him, the family and the defense side of Gennady Kernes will insist on a trial for his rehabilitation.
“There must be full justification and rehabilitation, as, for example, in the cases of the repressed,” added the lawyer.
As Vgorode reported, Kharkiv Mayor Gennady Kernes was buried today in the city’s second cemetery. The farewell ceremony lasted more than five hours.
