KIEV, Aug. 11 – Ukraine's Justice Ministry has initiated the creation of a group to combat illegal company seizures jointly with the police, including amendments to legislation and a new service – SMS messages about changes in the companies or property registers.

"Based on the work of the commission [that discussed claims against actions of public registrars] we have analyzed the most frequent cases and schemes they [illegal seizers] use and proposed legal changes to remove any risks of attempts to seize property," First Deputy Justice Minister Natalia Sevostianova said at a briefing in Kiev on Tuesday.
