Poroshenko's Defense Does Not Say Whether He Will Hand Over His Foreign Passport

Poroshenko's Defense Does Not Say Whether He Will Hand Over His Foreign Passport

The defense of former President Petro Poroshenko does not comment on the question of whether he will hand over his foreign passport according to the decision of the Pecherskyi District Court.

The lawyer of the ex-President Ihor Holovan announced this to Ukrainian News Agency.

"I will not comment on this," the lawyer said.

The lawyer added that the defense would act in accordance with the law in this matter, but did not specify what it means.

As Ukrainian News Agency earlier reported, the Pecherskyi District Court of Kyiv banned Poroshenko from traveling abroad.

The ex-President is obliged to arrive at every request to the court, to the prosecutor and the investigator, not to leave Kyiv and Kyiv region without appropriate permission.

Poroshenko is also required to give for keeping a passport for traveling abroad or other documents giving the right to do so.

Poroshenko plans three foreign trips in the near future, despite the obligation to hand over his foreign passport.
