KIEV, Dec. 27 - The Antimonopoly Committee has filed a case against Livela for abuse of monopoly when importing oil products, the AMC told Interfax-Ukraine.

"Monopoly has been obtained as a result of court rulings, which provided Livela with the right to supply fuel without paying taxes and fees. The efforts of law enforcement and regulatory authorities are needed to appeal these court decisions with the purpose to change the situation," the AMC said.

As reported, in early December Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych instructed the Antimonopoly Committee of Ukraine to clarify the situation with tax-free oil imports to the country.
