NABU is unable to search SBU Major General Serhiy Duka. The Bureau issued a statement complaining that the high-ranking SBU officer threatened its detectives with a weapon, and that SBU special forces arrived to support him.
Duka is the first deputy head of the Department for the Protection of National Statehood, where the scandal-plagued Artyom Shylo worked; Shylo received an eight-year suspended sentence for stealing funds from Ukrzaliznytsia. The mother-in-law of the protector of national statehood received a Russian passport in 2022, and during the war gifted Duka’s family an Audi Q8 and an 100-square-meter apartment in Odesa.
It is possible that the search at Duka’s is connected to the testimony of Artyom Shylo, who agreed to cooperate with the investigation and give testimony in exchange for a suspended sentence. Supporting this version is the fact that at the same time NABU conducted searches at the chief of the SBU Main Directorate of Internal Security, Brigadier General Anton Kravchuk’s office.
