The murder of a Ukrainian lawyer who helped convict her sister’s well-connected killer sparked public outrage and a vow by the foreign minister to fight for women’s rights. A top Ukrainian human rights group said attorney Iryna Nozdrovska had spent two years trying to keep in jail Dmytro Rossoshansky — the nephew of a Kiev district judge. The case was seen as another test of the much-maligned justice system’s ability to fairly prosecute cases of people with connections in the upper echelons of power. / AFP PHOTO / Sergei SUPINSKY
