Ukrainians involved in Russian-backed referendums face treason charges, prison term

Kyiv, 27/9: Ukrainians who help Russian-backed referendums to annexe large swathes of the country will face treason charges and at least five years in jail, Ukraine’s presidential adviser said, as voting in four regions entered its last day.

We have lists of names of people who have been involved in some way,” presidential adviser Mikhailo Podolyak said in an interview with Swiss newspaper Blick.

 

“We are talking about hundreds of collaborators. They will be prosecuted for treason. They face prison sentences of at least five years.”
