Kuchma to face pressure in Ukraine death probe

Ukraine’s interior minister gave the new government’s sharpest warning yet to former President Leonid Kuchma today, saying he has reason to worry as the investigation into a journalist’s death nearly five years ago proceeds at a breakneck pace.

Interior Minister Yuriy Lutsenko said that the apparent suicide note left by Kuchma’s former Interior Minister Yuriy Kravchenko “placed all the dots over the i’s”.
