⚖️ The judicial reform we “deserved”: the guilty verdict for Tandyr and a noose for his “honest” friend from the HCCC
In October 2026 the Sviatoshynskyi District Court of Kyiv is to announce a guilty verdict for former Makariv District Court judge Oleksiy Tandyr, who fatally ran over National Guard serviceman Vadym Bondarenko at a checkpoint. The prosecutor is seeking the maximum 10 years of imprisonment. But this verdict will trigger a chain reaction that will ultimately wipe out the reputations of some top officials in the judicial system.
This concerns Oleksiy Omelyan — a member of the High Council for the Qualification of Judges (HCCC). The same supposedly “most virtuous” member of the commission, selected by international experts and the High Council of Justice, who during his entire 15-year career issued judicial decisions only in the first couple of years.
Fishing, whiskey, and “sudden amnesia”
Let’s recall the chronology of events and Omelyan’s role in this story:
📌On the eve of the tragedy, Tandyr, Omelyan, and their mutual friends went fishing, where they drank alcohol heavily.
📌When it was time to return to Kyiv, Omelyan — intoxicated (but more sober) — took Tandyr’s car wheel, while the owner of the car rested beside him.
📌A few kilometers before the checkpoint, Omelyan got out of the car and handed the wheel back to the intoxicated Tandyr. Shortly afterward, there was a fatal collision with the serviceman.
During the pretrial investigation and court questioning, Omelyan switched to a “I saw nothing, I remember nothing” mode. According to him, he was merely “cutting sandwiches,” and when whiskey was poured into the glasses he was just “blinking,” and he noticed no signs of Tandyr’s intoxication.
What does this mean for the system?
It’s obvious that Omelyan tried to cover for his friend. The State Bureau of Investigations has already conducted searches at Omelyan’s home in a case about misleading the court (part 2 of art. 384 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine). Once Tandyr’s verdict becomes final, Omelyan should officially be designated a false witness and be suspected of knowingly providing false testimony.
Meanwhile, international experts together with Omelyan continue to pompously “assess” other Ukrainian judges for integrity and to shape a “renewed” judiciary. It seems that for them the main thing is that financial remuneration reliably arrives in bank accounts, and “their people” can continue to be covered up.
