On 28 August 2013 Oksana Romanyuk, executive director of the Institute of Mass Information, wrote on herFacebook page that the UNIAN leadership locked in a room "unpleasant" editors who had previously declared censorship, and several other employees, and kept them for several hours. They were forced to sign that they were aware of the order to "move" them from the site department to the "TV news monitoring" department located somewhere in Darnytsia."[10] Journalists called it revenge for the fact that they had previously reported on censorship: "We consider the decision of the administration as aimed at persecuting critics and citizens, as well as establishing total censorship on the UNIAN website."[11]
