KIEV, Dec 3: Ukraine's Supreme Court on Friday ruled that a disputed presidential election officially won by Prime Minister Viktor Yanukovich, was invalid. Chairman Anatoly Yarema, delivering the court's ruling after five days of deliberations, said a "repeat vote" was required.
He said this ballot should take place three weeks counting from Dec 5 - meaning Dec 26 - suggesting it would be a re-run of last month's run-off vote which opposition candidate Viktor Yushchenko alleged was rigged by authorities. -Reuters
