Angry Crowd Overturns Bribe-Seeking Cops’ Car

These people really rock! Watch footage of how a bribe-seeking highway patrol got their car rocked a little bit in Zakarpattya oblast.


Самосуд над гаишниками

Extorting money from zarobitchany (labor migrants) who work in neighboring EU countries and drive foreign-registered cars has become a profitable business for local law enforcement.

Some zarobitchany couldn’t take it anymore.

Police responded with indiscriminate beatings and arrested up to 30 people. Meanwhile, the people who did the car thing remain at large.

I hope this episode will serve as a wake-up call and will get the corrupt cops jailed. Otherwise, indiscriminate beatings of people may lead to indiscriminate beatings of cops.

Tymoshenko to Fight Bribery Surgically



We’re launching a multichannel communication system with all entrepreneurs of Ukraine whereby they will use electronic, phone or snail mail — whatever they prefer — to give us a clear picture of where they pay bribes, and what’s more, this information they may present anonymously, without stating their names and the names of those they pay bribes to.

We are not interested in targeting specific persons. We are interested in understanding conceptually where government has the authority — and in many cases excess authority — that entrepreneurs have to pay an excess bribe for — because bribes can be minimized, but to talk of eradicating bribery altogether would be a very lofty ambition.

Just make sure the scalpel doesn’t get rusty, so that we’ll see some serious slicing and dicing.
