On Tuesday, February 14, near the District Administrative Court of Kyiv on Komandarma Kamenev Street, renamed by the new authorities in honor of the Petliura Colonel Pavel Bolbochan, members of Svoboda held a rally demanding the dismissal of the chairman of the court, Pavel Vovk.

This was reported by the Kiev publication “Left Bank”.
“The revolution has passed, but these officials who worked during the time of Yanukovych think that everything has passed them by and they can continue to enjoy life. We are beginning to remind you that nothing is forgotten and that everyone must be responsible for their actions,” said the initiator of the action, Kyiv City Council deputy from “Svoboda” Petr Kuzik.
According to nationalists, Vovk was not lustrated, and therefore he was re-elected head of the court in March 2015.
It is reported that a garbage can was brought to the rally, on which a photograph of Vovk was pasted, thus hinting at “garbage lustration” - a specific Ukrainian way of publicly humiliating officials.
