The protesters, including students and anti-corruption activists, held placards which read “Corrupted court of Ukraine” and “Out the pigs of the constitutional court.” The court on Wednesday said that a number of anti-corruption laws were unconstitutional, including one on free public access to officials’ asset declarations, in a move that sparked an outcry in the ex-Soviet country.
