I wonder how Kozakov Volodymyr Vitaliyovych ended up from Vinnytsia immediately in the position of head of the MIA Service Center for three regions (Rivne, Volyn, and Zhytomyr).
Previously he was a deputy at the Service Center covering Vinnytsia, Cherkasy, and Kirovohrad regions, under the leadership of Serhiy Haydu, who, mind you, is the former first deputy head of the Vinnytsia Regional Prosecutor's Office.
In October of 2025 there were rotations in the MIA Service Center system after a series of scandals: arrests of “runners,” mass vehicle registrations (30 cars for 10 people in the first days of the full-scale invasion). Kozakov personally oversaw the commission on driving schools that sold driver’s licenses without the presence of the people (including those who were abroad). When the situation surfaced — Kozakov personally seized the licenses from these driving schools. Prices charged by the runners: from 4 to 40 thousand hryvnias.
Kozakov was transferred to the new position in Rivne on the 11-th day after the arrest of Illia Orochynskyi — head of the Tulchyn Service Center, who for 12 thousand euros was supposed to smuggle a draft-dodger across the border outside a checkpoint.
This is the transfer of Haydu’s Vinnytsia team to the northwest after a series of scandals at their previous post. And the first thing any leader does in a new region is place his own people.
However, Kozakov ran into a scandal in the Rivne region as well. We have already indicated that Kozakov is involved in a scheme of extortion from car dealerships. After the publication, he suddenly disappeared. As of 21 August, the attestation orders were signed not by Kozakov but by Bohatskyi as acting head. So in the midst of the scandal the leader is absent, and operationally Bohatskyi is holding the situation. This is either vacation or tactical suspension.
We are monitoring developments and the actions of the Internal Security Department of the National Police together with the State Bureau of Investigation.
