In Kirovohrad, judge did not allow journalists to court session

The Filming crew of the TV channel “Kirovohrad” (Kirovohradska oblast state TV and Radio Company) was not allowed to the hearing on the case of "Loans Maidan" by the judge of Leninskiy district court of Kirovohrad city Lilia Ivanova. As rationale behind the decision, Ivanova gave lack of request of the journalists themselves to be present, and also the bank representatives’ reluctance to have journalists attend the trial.
