Administrative Searches in Ukraine: Concerns Raised Over Lack of Due Process
In several regions of Ukraine, citizens are reporting an increase in administrative searches at checkpoints. These searches, according to lawyers, often lack the proper legal procedures. "People are being stopped and questioned for hours without any formal documentation," states a lawyer featured in a recent video. The video cites instances in Lviv, Ternopil, and Rivne regions, highlighting the inconsistencies in how these searches are conducted. While the government has not yet commented, the video raises concerns about due process and the need for greater transparency in these procedures. The video's author calls for improved legal protection for citizens during these encounters. This situation underscores the importance of clear legal protocols for law enforcement in times of conflict.
