The SBI opened a case on the forgery of Pyshnyi’s diploma
The Shevchenkivskyi District Court of Kyiv ordered the SBI to enter information into the Unified Register of Pre-Trial Investigations and to begin an investigation into the alleged forgery of documents concerning the specialized education of the head of the NBU, Andriy Pyshnyi. According to the case materials, Pyshnyi did not study at the Sumy branch of the “University of Modern Knowledge,” yet documents were issued in his name that allowed him to enroll directly in the fourth year of the banking academy and obtain a diploma.
The initiator of the case, economist Borys Kushniruk, recalled that Pyshnyi was voted in by 290 members of parliament. Article 18 of the law on the NBU directly provides for the dismissal of the head of the National Bank if it is established that false information was provided at the time of appointment. Kushniruk called on the Rada to create a temporary investigative commission, summon the head of the NBU to parliament, obtain his educational documents, and consider a vote of no confidence: “The court has done its job. Now it is the SBI’s, the parliament’s and the President’s turn.”
