The High Anti-Corruption Court found MP Yurchenko guilty and sentenced him to 9 years of imprisonment, with disqualification from holding certain positions for 3 years and confiscation of property.
Yurchenko is accused of covertly asking, through his assistant, for 10 thousand dollars in “kickbacks” for himself in order to introduce a draft law to the Rada on amendments to legislation concerning the processing of solid household waste.
He demanded another 200 thousand dollars to bribe his colleagues — members of the relevant committee. That money was necessary for votes in the committee and in parliament.
Well, that's one MP fewer in the Verkhovna Rada.
Yurchenko started with stealing 4 cans of beer from a supermarket. He ended with a corruption conviction.
