I was unaware of the BBC (or any) major media coverage of this. It still worries me that this is going the route of "everybody look at this" to keep it secure. It does take a certain amount of trust among participants to go the route of "ok guys, we are going to handle these in a secret place until the job's done and we can distribute all at once," but the chosen route paints a very large bullseye on the operation.
I would imagine that it would not be hard for the police to justify a raid to reclaim classified documents, but maybe someone more familiar with the situation than myself could explain why this is less likely than my paranoid mind tells me?
The same activists who effectively just won the revolution are occupying the former president's residence, and have it open to the public. Journalists are everywhere. Said activists have the support of the military and the police and society at large. There's just no danger whatsoever of a raid, they can afford to be open. The thugs already lost.

Except in other parts of the country, Crimea for example, pro-Russian protesters are taking over government buildings and staging their own protests...
There's even talk of secession in Crimea...
The pro-EU activists may be a majority in some parts of Ukraine, but not in Ukraine at large...
