On May 23, anonymous leaflets without imprint data were pasted up in Lutsk under the slogans: "Shame on Kryvytskyi! Down with Kryvytskyi!", which is a new round of the scandal surrounding the privatization of part of the premises of Music School No. 1, – reported the own correspondent of the Western Information Corporation.
We present the text of the leaflet preserving its style:
"A cry from the soul forced us to address you. Part of the state music school No. 1 (9287 sq. m. – 18 classrooms) was secretly, cynically, in violation of current legislation, privatized by the mayor for his daughter Kryvytska Tetiana Antonivna for 58 thousand 510 hryvnias! The renovation of the privatized premises was carried out at the city's expense, as evidenced by the inspection report of the Control and Audit Department. Criminal inaction was shown by the regional and city prosecutor's offices, which did not initiate a criminal case on this fact. There is mad pressure on the mass media and the court. We (the school's employees) are being threatened with physical reprisal."
The city prosecutor's office recently initiated a criminal case that was under proceedings. The prosecutor insists that the music school premises belong to category "A". That is, it cannot be privatized under any circumstances. The legal department of the city executive committee insists that these premises belong to category "Zh". That is, it can be privatized.
There is a case in the Commercial Court of Volyn Oblast regarding the illegality of the city council's permit for the privatization of these premises, the hearing of which is to begin in the coming days.
All of this caused the scandal at the city council session on May 20, where deputies from the "Our Ukraine" faction demanded the cancellation of their own earlier decision permitting the privatization of this facility. The deputies fear a "stain on the entire city council" and appearing in court. City mayor Anton Kryvytskyi stated at the session that the scandal is being inflated only because the children's center "Svitlynka" – the one that privatized part of the music school's premises – is headed by his daughter. And the court must decide everything – whether the privatization was lawful or unlawful. On Friday, the "Our Ukraine" members gathered 15 votes for their proposal, which was not enough to adopt the relevant decision.
