Deputies Geo Leros and Aleksandr Yurchenko, expelled from the Servant of the People faction, staged a fight in the Verkhovna Rada. Leros said Yurchenko attacked him “with fists and xenophobic statements.” And he said Leros attacked him from behind and kicked him in the head.
Oleksandr Yurchenko, a non-faction people’s deputy suspected of taking bribes, wrote on Facebook on 5 November that he was attacked by another non-faction people’s deputy, Geo Leros, in Verkhovna Rada. Previously, both MPs were members of the Servant of the People faction, but were excluded from it.
“At around 11:30 am I was attacked by the foolish and provocative Geo Leros. This is what the pressure on the deputies looks like in 2020. Fights, provocations, threats … They are already trying to eliminate me not only politically, but also physically. Tomorrow this mad dog will rush to someone else, “Yurchenko noted.
The people’s deputy Leros reported on November 5 that Yurchenko had attacked him “with fists and xenophobic statements.”
“When criminals are not imprisoned, but are released to vote in the Verkhovna Rada for the interests of the President’s Office, we get bandit status. Yesterday, the bracelet was taken from the bribery Yurchenko, like a dog, today this monster Crazy attacked me with fists and xenophobic statements. I will not repeat the words he said, because it is unpleasant for the psyche of any suitable person, “Leros emphasized.
In a video that Leros posted a bit later, Yurchenko says that Leros attacked him from behind and kicked him in the head.
“Someone is making a new piece of the pie,” Leros commented in his post.
The People’s Deputy for “European Solidarity”, Victoria Syumar, also wrote about the conflict between Yurchenko and Leros.
“In the Rada, passions do not fade. On the sidelines, the notorious MP Yurchenko had a fight with Geo Leros … Yurchenko believes that it was Leros who damaged his reputation, and not” negotiations for a bribe of 40 million “. Yurchenko’s story is a vivid example of the real thing: anti-corruption policy of the “current government” – believes Syumar.
On September 21, 2020, VAKS arrested Yurchenko until November 9 with the opportunity to be released on bail in the amount of UAH 3 million. On September 23, the court arrested the politician’s property. According to NABU, the People’s Deputy “in a veiled way” requested to transfer it through an intermediary $ 13 thousand to make proposals to the bill related to the field of household waste, and more than $ 200 thousand for bribery of parliamentarians, members of the Rada profile committee.
Attorney General Irina Venediktova signed Yurchenko’s suspicion on September 17. On the same day, Yurchenko received a suspicion, was expelled from the Servant of the People faction and was also interrogated at NABU and SAP.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he expects “more demonstration prisons” in corruption cases and that Yurchenko “will definitely go to jail.”
In court, Yurchenko denied the bribery charges and described himself as a fighter for justice.
On September 25, Yurchenko was posted bail and he was released from the remand center. Then they put an electronic bracelet on him. November 4 with the popular deputy removed the electronic bracelet.
“Servant of the People” Faction September 1 expelled Leros from its membership. This happened later, in a meeting of the Rada, he reproached Zelensky for the fact that the newly promised people did not come to power, and called Ermak “an agent of the GRU of the Russian Federation”. Leros said it was Zelensky who instructed Yermak to “do all the dirty and corrupt work.”
