Chernivtsi entrepreneur Illia Pavliuk, whom journalists previously linked to informal influence over a group of deputies from the Servant of the People party, turned out to be a participant in a road accident in Vinnytsia region. After the incident he left the scene of the accident, writes Ukrainska Pravda.
According to a source in law enforcement quoted by the outlet, the incident occurred in August 15. According to him, the crash happened at approximately 18:00 on highway M-30 near the village of Sadove in Vinnytsia district — three cars collided in the crash: a Lexus LM350h driven by Pavliuk, a Ford Edge, and a Volkswagen Passat.
It was provisionally established that the officers who arrived at the scene may have suspected the entrepreneur of alcohol consumption. After the police arrived and carried out initial procedural actions, Pavliuk, despite being ordered to remain at the scene, left the accident site. According to the source, a Mercedes Brabus arrived to pick him up, and the businessman drove away in it. Law enforcement officers are currently continuing their work at the crash site, determining the causes and circumstances of the collision, and are also searching for Pavliuk.

In 2020 the media wrote about the possible role of the entrepreneur as an informal curator of a group of members of parliament from Servant of the People.
