On August 31, in Lutsk, the prosecutor of the Volyn region, Mykola Frantovskyi, met with representatives of the NGOs "European Integration Fund," "Children of War," "Volyn Choice," and journalists, reported the Western Information Corporation's own correspondent.
Representatives of the public organizations began the meeting with the topic of general distrust in society toward law enforcement agencies. According to the results of an August survey conducted by public organizations in Lutsk, today only about 20% of Lutsk residents trust the court and the police, and only 10% trust the prosecutor's office.
Representatives of the public organizations were interested, in particular, in the following questions: Mykola Frantovskyi's attitude toward the latest statements of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine; when changes in the regional prosecutor's office will begin; when criminal cases against certain individuals will be opened, as well as citizens' personal problems in relations with district and city prosecutors, etc.
As for the latest statements of the Prosecutor General, Mykola Frantovskyi supports them. He promised that he would act only within the framework of the law, and would also conduct checks on all questions. However, the prosecutor of the Volyn region emphasized that personnel issues in the prosecutor's office would be decided, in accordance with competence, by himself and the Prosecutor General, and no external factors would influence this.
