Today, another picket of the Volyn Regional Prosecutor's Office took place, conducted by activists of the Committee of National Salvation together with the organizations "Pora" and "National Alliance," the parties "People's Union 'Our Ukraine'" and "Svoboda." The event was held as part of a campaign aimed at removing the regional prosecutor Andriy Hil from his position. Having begun at the start of the week, the protests are taking on new forms and gaining momentum: more than a thousand signatures have been collected from residents of the regional center demanding the prosecutor's resignation. Every day, leaflets with information about the working style of the regional prosecutor's office leadership are being distributed, and people with personal complaints about the work of law enforcement agencies constantly approach those on duty in the tents, in particular regarding what they consider to be unlawful and sometimes criminal actions of the regional prosecutor. That is precisely why the tent camp has already become for Volyn residents a center of the struggle against injustice. The revolutionary fervor of the picket participants was accompanied by drumbeats and slogans of "Hilism will not pass!", while a village cart with the inscriptions "Customs cleared at the Kamin-Kashyrskyi traffic police" as a symbol of "equipment" under the "roof" of the regional prosecutor's office drove around the city, informing Lutsk residents about the protest actions. The owner of the "vehicle" offered his free services to the regional prosecutor in the event of his voluntary resignation. Today, the widow of law enforcement officer Masniev O.V., who died about 2 years ago in his office, spoke before the picket participants. The criminal case "on the fact of death during the performance of official duties," which the policeman's wife insists on, has not been brought to a logical conclusion. The widow, having been knocking on the doors of the relevant authorities for a long time, explains her ordeals as "either an unwillingness to solve the case or the unprofessionalism of the regional prosecutor's office employees." Thus, the problem of the appropriateness of A. Hil's holding the position is becoming, in the opinion of the organizers of the protest actions, more relevant and acute with each passing day.
