Expert: What is the presumption of innocence for police officers? It's time to resign Avakov!
The introduction of the “presumption of innocence of police officers,” announced by Arsen Avakov after the shooting of police officers in Dnepropetrovsk, is the minister’s attempt to hide the complete failure of the promised “Ministry of Internal Affairs reform.”
Georgy Kryuchkov, ex-head of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on National Security and Defense, told PolitNavigator about this.

“The presumption of the policeman’s correctness, which Avakov stated, is the idiocy of a high-ranking official who is unable to ensure the normal functioning of his service and is turning the legal system on its head.
The man is simply saving his reputation. The consequences will not be long in coming, and they will be very severe. Crime in the country is growing, the law enforcement service has collapsed, there are no people in the service subordinate to Avakov, they have been dispersed. The number of crimes is growing. The police can no longer protect themselves. What can she do to protect citizens?
Avakov needs to voluntarily leave his job. My friends in the Ministry of Internal Affairs tell me: you have no idea what the situation is, there are no people, no one to work. A person whose apartment was robbed is told: submit an application, get in line, maybe in a few years we will begin to deal with your case.
At the same time, breaking the system with the presumption that the policeman is right is beyond my comprehension!
It would be better to think about who killed these policemen in Dnepropetrovsk, where he is from. He is from these formations that have done so much. Why doesn’t Avakov think about this? Not to mention the fact that not a single high-profile case has been investigated and the perpetrators have not been punished. This is scary. Never have our people been so defenseless against tyranny. At the same time, they talked a lot about how the police were being reformed,” Kryuchkov noted.
Thank you!
