Legalization of property worth 26 million UAH: former head of the Commercial Cassation Court Bohdan Lviv has been notified of suspicion.
The NABU and SAP have notified former head of the CC of the Supreme Court Bohdan Lviv of suspicion in legalizing (laundering) property obtained by criminal means, in an especially large amount.
In addition, two other persons have been notified of suspicion in committing the crime — the judge’s former subordinate and her mother.
During the period 2021–2022 years, the suspect acquired assets totaling about 26 million UAH.
These include a house with a plot of land, two apartment-flats, and four land plots.
According to NABU, in order to hide the illegal origin of the funds and the true owner of the assets, he involved his subordinate in the criminal scheme, who in fact performed the duties of his secretary.
The illegally acquired property was officially registered in her mother’s name, which made it possible to conceal traces of the crime and legalize the assets.

Recall, Lviv was dismissed from the Supreme Court in the fall of 2022 after Scheme journalists found a Russian passport in his possession.
The presence of Russian citizenship was also confirmed by the SBU.
Lviv is still appealing the decision on his dismissal. The case has been under consideration in the Administrative Cases Division of the Supreme Court for more than two years.
