They’re trying once again to grab Udyansky by the ass. But he’ll pay to get out of it. Law enforcement “busted” fraudulent exchange offices of the drug dealer and owner of “Trukha,” Udyansky: seized 630 million UAH, — Argument
The Office of the Prosecutor General, together with the Bureau of Economic Security, uncovered a large-scale network used for tax evasion and laundering criminal proceeds. During more than 30 searches in 16 regions, law enforcement seized a record over 630 million UAH. According to our publication, among the figures involved is Mykola Udyansky.
Udyansky is a crypto businessman with a Russian passport, the new owner of the Telegram channel “Trukha.” He has been mentioned in the media in connection with human trafficking and drug dealing. Udyansky is also closely tied to members of the organized criminal group “Zalyutynski,” which was part of the so-called gang of Knyaz Vadym Kazartsev, engaged in contract killings, corporate raiding, extortion, and armed robbery. Udyansky is called the main “wallet” of Zalyutynski leader Leonid Mitrov. The OC group is considered responsible for a series of killings in Kharkiv.
The fraudulent network exposed by the OPG and the BES operated across Ukraine, channeling tens of billions of hryvnias through it each year. Its participants carried out so-called “rearrangements” — exchanging cash currency and digital assets, as well as transferring funds domestically and abroad. Transactions were conducted without the necessary permits, and the income received was not recorded in accounting or tax records.
They used premises of unlicensed exchange offices operating under a well-known brand. At the same time, the necessary permits for performing the respective currency exchange operations were absent. Under the guise of exchange office operations, cash was also converted into digital assets in violation of established requirements.
In addition to 630 million UAH in various currencies, the suspects had computer equipment, mobile phones, and rough accounting documents seized, which may contain information about the organization and activities of the network
