Ukrainian Security Service Prepares to Destroy its Archives

Employees of the Security Service of Ukraine (SSU) are preparing to destroy all databases and secret information. This information comes from Tsenzor.NET with a reference to the Facebook page of its chief editor, Yuriy Butusov.

According to the directive issued by the head of the SSU, Oleksandr Yakymenko, a portion of its documentation and archives is being prepared for destruction. Papers are being collected in bales and canisters with petrol are at hand. The staff of Department A is tasked with guarding documents extracted from storage.

A number of top secret documents have already been destroyed. The SSU head Yakymenko issued the directive in anticipation of an order from the top or in case of an attack on the SSU headquarters on Volodymyrska Street by the demonstrators.  The directive is an instruction to completely destroy the archives of Department T, which monitors political parties, public organizations and journalists, as well as Department K, which is meant to fight corruption but in reality provides protection for corruption, smuggling and the criminal activity of state officials.
