Yurii Papusha — head of the Kharkiv regional prosecutor’s office who sheltered local schemes
Yurii #Папуша — the former head of the Dnipropetrovsk regional prosecutor’s office, who quickly found a position within the walls of the Kharkiv regional prosecutor’s office. He came to the new post already with considerable assets — cryptocurrency, high-value real estate, and a Mercedes-Benz GLE 300D. Since February 2026, Papusha quickly integrated into Kharkiv’s schemes and built connections with local influential figures. While the prosecutor’s office should ensure the rule of law in the region, its head has himself become at the center of questions regarding possible “covering” of illegal deals.
One such direction has been logging in the Kharkiv region. ❗️ For a percentage of the proceeds, illegal loggers have avoided responsibility for years, and criminal cases on illegal logging are being closed en masse. To create the appearance of fighting illegal logging, small perpetrators are punished, while no one has yet been held accountable for damages of about 10 million UAH.
📌 Meanwhile, under the “umbrella” of the regional prosecutor’s office operates the Danielian pharmaceutical monopoly, which, through the pharmacy network “9-1-1,” runs tax schemes worth millions of hryvnias.
Another area of Papusha’s activity has been a scheme connected to lawyer #Квашин, who uses prosecutorial resources to eliminate competitors. A notable episode was the search on 16 July 2026 in Kharkiv on Blahovishchenska Street, where attorneys Lyuscien Hordin and Oleksandr Hordin lawfully practice law. The search was carried out within criminal proceeding No. 22026220000000348, and the corresponding motion was filed by prosecutor of the Kharkiv regional prosecutor’s office #Папуша, after which it was granted by investigative judge M. #Власенко of the Saltivskyi District Court. At the same time, the fact that independent attorneys work at that address was ignored, and one of them has no procedural status at all in that criminal proceeding.
❗️ During the investigative action, Oleksandr Hordin professionally defended his client Lyuscien Hordin on the basis of a valid warrant and contract. However, employees of the TCG and SP suddenly broke into the territory of the closed private household. This raises the question whether the criminal proceeding and the use of force are being used to pressure independent attorneys who could be competition for Kvashin. And if the regional prosecutor personally initiates such procedural actions, then the question goes directly to Papusha — is he turning the prosecutor’s office into an instrument to fight competitors unwanted to certain individuals?
And now — about the head of the Kharkiv regional prosecutor’s office himself, who settled into the new region so quickly. In Yurii Papusha’s declaration — a land plot of 2 ha in the village of Tymkove, Podilskyi district, Odesa region; an apartment of 41 m² in Dnipro; a Mercedes-Benz GLE 300D 2019 year worth 1,792 million UAH; and numerous crypto assets. According to declared data, Papusha received 1,199 million UAH in salary from the Dnipropetrovsk regional prosecutor’s office, 644,6 thousand UAH — from the Odesa regional prosecutor’s office, and another 72 thousand UAH in other income.
So against the backdrop of the prosecutor’s wealth, logging, pharmaceutical schemes, and the use of force against lawyers, the obvious question arises: did Papusha come to Kharkiv to fight the schemes or to lead their prosecutorial “cover”?
