Lukash: Law enforcers, who exceed authority, won’t be amnestied
Law enforcers, who exceeded authority during mass actions, won’t be amnestied under the law, passed in the Verkhovna Rada on January 29, justice minister of Ukraine Olena Lukash said during a meeting with foreign ambassadors.

Answering the question of Swedish Ambassador Andreas von Beckerath whether law enforcers will be held liable for the illegal actions against protesters, Lukash said: "If I understand you correctly, you're asking whether people, who abused power, will be amnestied. No, they won’t be amnestied. The law, passed yesterday, has no such provision".
