You're reading: Klitschko: Three employees of Kyiv administration fall under lustration, almost 50 people fired earlier

As of today, three employees of Kyiv City State Administration have fallen under the effect of the lustration law, Kyiv Mayor and Head of the Kyiv City State Administration Vitali Klitschko has said.

“Three people have fallen under the lustration for now,” he said at a briefing in Kyiv on Thursday, Oct. 30.

In addition, Klitschko urged not to speculate about a number of lustrated officials, as a couple of dozens employees of Kyiv City State Administration, not fit for their positions, had been fired before the law’s coming in effect.

“I’d like to attract your attention to [the fact that] without waiting for the lustration law the leadership had been renewed… nearly 50 employees, who didn’t meet the key criteria and weren’t effective, were fired from Kyiv City State Administration,” he added.
