The court also determined for pand suspected a number of procedural obligations, such as arriving at the summons of a court, investigator or prosecutor, not leaving the borders of Kyiv region, reporting a change of residence or work, refraining from communicating with certain people’s deputies, handing in passports for traveling abroad.
There is no obligation to wear an electronic bracelet.
During her speech in court, Tymoshenko asked the judge not to impose a preventive measure at all or to limit herself to personal obligations.
The lawyers of the “Batkivshchyna” leader also objected to the assignment of procedural duties. According to the defense, the ban on leaving the territory of the capital and Kyiv region and handing in a foreign passport will significantly affect Tymoshenko’s political activities. Regarding the means of electronic tracking, the lawyer also argued that “women’s shoes are different from men’s shoes, have certain characteristics, so the requirement to wear an electronic bracelet can be considered a kind of torture.”
