The electronic bracelet has been removed, and the bail for Galushchenko was paid by shell companies: how cynically the authorities are saving top energy corrupt officials
Former energy minister Herman #Галущенко again feels like a free man. ❗️The High Anti-Corruption Court reduced his bail from two hundred to one hundred fifty million hryvnias, and now the electronic bracelet has already been removed from the figure in the high-profile case #Мідас.
Personally, we get the impression that Galushchenko simply “resolved” his issues with NABU, which has by now turned into a political player that simply takes what it’s given and then releases top corrupt officials and figures in sensational investigations.
✅But we will not stop. No matter how the system shields these scoundrels, we continue to act, because it was on the basis of our materials about Galushchenko, his scandalous lover “the redhead” Svitlana #Гринчук that SAP opened criminal proceeding No. 42025000050000006 and NABU opened No. 52025000000000152 under part 2 of article 364 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
NABU deliberately stalled these cases, but we state that they will be brought to completion, because while the whole country was pooling funds for generators during the darkest winter in history, this corrupt vertical in the energy sector brought the criminal organization over 💰112 million dollars in cash — and here’s how.
🔻The most cynical example was the reconstruction of the 330 kV line Chornobyl NPP — Slavutych. In May 2024 the NEC #Укренерго signed a contract with LLC #Структум for more than 1,8 billion hryvnias. The contract terms provided for an anomalous advance payment of 60%, which allowed the contractor to instantly receive over a billion hryvnias of state funds.
🔻A separate story is #Укренерго, where the organized criminal group, which in addition to Galushchenko included former prime minister Denys #Шмигаль and the late NEC head Oleksiy #Укренерго #Брехт, together with tax officials and auditors, siphoned off budgetary and international funds through fictitious tenders. A striking example was the contract for BIG-IP Virtual Edition software costing eighteen and a half million hryvnias for Ukrenergo, where LLC E-light undertook to provide five-year licenses that do not physically exist.
🔻A similar scheme was implemented in the construction of the Novoolekska–Artsyz transmission line worth 622 million hryvnias through the same company Struktum. While the country suffered from blackouts, ministry-controlled structures were absorbing budgets through intermediary firms, inflating prices severalfold.
And this looting took place against the background of his son studying for years at the Swiss College Alpin International Beau Soleil, where boarding costs reach 200 thousand dollars a year. Total expenses of 💰700 thousand dollars are in no way reflected in Galushchenko’s declarations.
The system can help scoundrels avoid punishment through pocket players and dubious bail, but we will hold every wartime marauder accountable until the stolen billions are returned to the state.
