Metropolitan Luka (Kovalenko) enters Mirotvorets database
Metropolitan Luka (Kovalenko)of Zaporozhye and Melitopol
The details about the Metropolitan of Zaporozhye and Melitopol entered the “Limbo” of Mirotvorets (Peacemaker) site.
The "charges" served on the archbishop by the resource are, inter alia, "manipulation of socially significant information", "inciting inter-confessional and inter-ethnic strife". Also, Vladyka Luka is called "an opponent of the independence of Ukrainian Orthodoxy from the Russian-controlled (aggressor country) ROC."
Earlier, the notorious resource slapped similar charges against UOC hierarchs being accuced of “counteracting the initiative of the President and the Parliament of Ukraine on the creation of an independent Local Church.
In July of 2017, the Directorate of the National Police of Kiev opened a case against Mirotvorets, publishing contact information of the so-called "traitors of the “homeland", including priests of the UOC, who are then threatened.
On December 27, 2017 the site, convicted of illegal publication of personal data of citizens of Ukraine and foreigners, was highly distinguished by the Kyiv Patriarchate.
