Ukrainian court upholds CHESNO victory over MP Buzhanskyi in 'Register of Traitors' defamation case

The CHESNO Movement, represented by Bihus.Info's 'Own People' project lawyer Oleksii Boyko, won an appeal against MP Maksym Buzhanskyi, who sought removal from the 'Register of Traitors' and retraction of published information. The appellate ruling confirms the first-instance decision, reinforcing the legality of the register and the public interest defense. This sets a legal precedent for similar defamation suits by politicians against civil society watchdogs in Ukraine.
