The Trukhanov and Krayan Factory Case: NACAC began considering the case from the start
The High Anti-Corruption Court has begun reconsidering the case of former Odesa mayor Hennadiy Trukhanov and the Krayan factory from the beginning.
The prosecutor has already read the indictment. The defense side again began delivering opening statements, but due to lack of time they will continue next time.
The reason is the replacement of a panel member. Instead of Tetiana Krykliva, who is on extended leave, Judge Olena Chernova was added to the panel.
The case is being heard by Oleh Tkachenko; Vitaliy Dubas; Olena Chernova.
Recall that the preparatory proceedings in this case were delayed for as many as 2,5 years due to the defense’s abuse of frivolous motions and numerous recusals.
The substantive trial was heard for over 3 years, and now the body of evidence will need to be examined again from the start.
Recall that Trukhanov and the other defendants are accused of illegally seizing 92,6 million UAH.
These were funds from the local budget that were funneled into acquiring the building of the bankrupt Krayan factory. According to the prosecution, this amount was knowingly inflated.
Trukhanov himself was stripped of Ukrainian citizenship a year ago.
Add that the statute of limitations for criminal liability expires at the end of 2031 year.
