Ivano-Frankivsk Court upholds UOC believers’ right to the church despite the mayor's campaigning
The court upheld the decision of the Economic Court of the Ivano-Frankivsk region of 08.02.16 in Case 909/932/15, which the Executive Committee of the Ivano-Frankivsk City Council denied the termination of the lease on the church at 6 Chornovil Str.
Thus, the decision of the Lviv Economic Court of Appeal of 11.02.2016 was overturned.
As reported earlier by the UOJ, the Ivano-Frankivsk eparchy of the UOC has published comments regarding the bias of the mayor of the city Ruslan Martsinkiv, who generates a negative attitude to the faithful of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.
