At a meeting of the temporary investigative commission of the Verkhovna Rada, they discussed the assets of the head of Chernihiv OTCK and SP Artem Trebesov and the purchase of vehicles by his family. According to the figures cited, this concerns a BMW X6 worth about 4 million UAH and a Toyota Camry for 821 thousand UAH. At the same time, Trebesov’s own declaration lists a salary of about 50 thousand UAH per month.

This was reported by Novyny.LIVE journalist Anna Siryk.

It became known that the BMW X6 was purchased by Artem Trebesov’s aunt, who, according to data presented during the meeting, did not have the corresponding lawful income for such a purchase. It was asserted that the car was actually purchased in the interest of her nephew.

Later, the wife of the head of Chernihiv OTCK purchased a Toyota Camry for 821 thousand UAH. The total value of the two vehicles amounted to about 4,8 million UAH.

The Appeals Chamber of the High Anti-Corruption Court upheld the decision to recover more than 4 million UAH to the state budget. The case materials stated that the family’s official income could not explain the origin of the funds for such purchases.

During the meeting, acting head of Chernihiv OTCK and SP Mykhailo Khomchuk was also asked about his leader’s salary.

“It is indicated in the declaration — about 50 thousand hryvnias,” Khomchuk replied.

When asked whether Artem Trebesov had about the same salary, Khomchuk answered: “Probably.”

After that, members of the TSC drew attention to the fact that, with such income, the purchase of two cars with a total value of about 5 million UAH raises questions.

“You’d have to work about 100 months, eat nothing, drink nothing, just to buy these two cars,” the head of the TSC said.

The Chernihiv OTCK also denied information about terrible conditions for holding people in the Pryluky RTCk.

At the TSC meeting, they showed a video that supposedly captured inadequate conditions for the stay of those liable for military service in the center’s premises. Acting head of Chernihiv OTCK and SP Mykhailo Khomchuk denied the information that people were being held there.

As Novyny.LIVE wrote, TCC and SP alert groups in Chernivtsi usually work from 06:00 to 19:00–20:00, and servicemembers may carry out tasks for 14–16 hours a day. The composition of groups and routes are determined daily by separate orders of the leadership depending on the number of personnel and current tasks. Such servicemembers are provided only one day off per week.

Novyny.LIVE also wrote that a requirement by an educational institution to change TCC when enrolling in a college or university in another city is not always lawful. Lawyer Vladyslav Deriy explained that if an applicant does not change their declared place of residence, they can enroll with the existing military registration document and remain registered with their own TCC. The mere fact of studying in another locality does not automatically oblige one to register for military service at the location of the educational institution.
