A court in Kyiv has sentenced Ukraine's former Interior Minister Yuriy Lutsenko to two years in prison in a second case against him. Lutsenko was found guilty on August 17 of ordering the illegal surveillance of suspects while investigating the poisoning of former President Viktor Yushchenko during his presidential campaign in 2004. In February, Lutsenko was found guilty of embezzlement and abuse of office and sentenced to four years in jail. Lutsenko pleaded not guilty in both cases and says the charges are politically motivated.
