Poroshenko will have to answer in court for libel
The television and radio company “Studio 1 + 1” filed a claim with the Pechersky District Court of Kiev against President Petro Poroshenko and the Publishing House “Media-DK” (publication “Novoye Vremya”) with a demand to refute false information and compensate for moral damages, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
This was reported by the press service of “1+1”.
According to her, the claim was filed on April 16. The company assessed moral damages at 1 million hryvnia, which, if the case wins, it promises to transfer to the “Come Back Alive” Army Relief Fund.
In particular, in its lawsuit, the media group asks the court to recognize as unreliable and in violation of business reputation a number of information messages that Poroshenko distributed on his Facebook page, and also voiced “at a meeting of citizens,” and the Media-DK Publishing House distributed on the Novoe website time".
“1+1” demands that these statements be refuted within 7 days from the date the court decision enters into legal force, and also that Poroshenko recover compensation for moral damage in the amount of 1 million hryvnia.
