🤔 How money was moved to pay bail of 150 million UAH for Galushchenko: financial monitoring did not work, - Zheleznyak
Tens of millions of hryvnias for the bail of former minister Herman Galushchenko may have passed through the accounts of companies with minimal income and only a few employees. According to MP Yaroslav Zheleznyak, one of the firms with an annual profit of 34,4 thousand UAH received 54 million UAH and on the same day transferred it to the High Anti-Corruption Court’s special account. Another 72 million UAH in cash was allegedly brought in through 137 payments from 68 companies and sole proprietors.
According to the investigation’s version, at the time the operations were conducted the payment control system was switched to maintenance mode, and participants knew the exact timing of this “window.” “The system didn’t break. It was turned off for half an hour,” Zheleznyak noted. In his view, the bank’s financial monitoring, the National Bank’s control, and State Financial Monitoring did not work.
The SAP prosecutor stated in the High Anti-Corruption Court that Timur Mindich allegedly organized the cash for the bail. The defense denies this. Zheleznyak, together with colleagues, has already submitted a draft law providing for enhanced verification of the origin of funds for bail payments and a public list of the persons who pay them.
