Disgraced Ukrainian ex-president Viktor Yanukovych is expected to testify via a video conference in a criminal case of the five former Berkut riot police officers on November 25, that`s according to Yanukovych`s lawyer Vitaliy Serdiuk.
Sviatoshynskiy district court in the city of Kyiv earlier obtained an approval from the Russian side to set up a video interrogation online. Now it is up to the court to prepare the equipment required for a video conference.
Viktor Yanukovych is to testify as witness, the lawyer added.
