An attempt to cancel “amendments of Lozovyi”– business, stand by!

14 November, 2023 Newsletters

In recent times there has been a wave of heated discussions in the legal community regarding Draft law No. 10100 stipulating the cancelation of so-called “amendments of Lozovyi” in part of fixed terms of pre-trial investigation where no one was notified of suspicion.

Throwing back in history, before the adoption of “Lozovyi’s amendments” in 2017 Criminal Procedural Code of Ukraine did not contain fixed terms of pre-trial investigation where no one was notified of suspicion, which resulted in uncontrolled pressure on the business. Cancelation of “Lozovyi’s amendments” will restore the endless investigations, which will darken the normal activity of bona-fide business entities.

In this newsletter, we also analyzed the relevant experience of several EU countries, which may be compared to Ukraine in terms of ongoing European integration.
