Highlighted that the persons affiliated with sexual minorities and transgender people do not fall within the categories that merit additional guarantees and rights as it is explicitly defined by the Criminal Procedural Code of Ukraine. Is emphasized the necessity of review the provisions Criminal Procedural Code of Ukraine in the context of equality of rights exercised by all categories of citizens, in particular, sexual minorities and transgender people. Making the abovementioned amendments to the criminal procedural legislation will promote improvement of rights of the persons who take part in criminal proceedings without any exception.
