NABU and SAP in the morning of 19 August are conducting a special operation to expose a criminal organization that, according to anti-corruption agencies, was led by a current and a former member of parliament. The case involves top officials of the Presidential Office and other influential figures.
This is reported by Ukrainska Pravda and ZN.ua citing their own sources.
What is known about the possible defendants in NABU’s large-scale operation?
Member of Parliament Yaroslav Zheleznyak stated that, according to his information, a current deputy from the former party “OPZZh” may be involved, as well as a well-known developer. According to sources of Ukrainska Pravda, NABU and SAP are conducting investigative actions, in particular, with the deputy head of the Presidential Office Iryna Mudra and MP Vadym Stoliar.
Also, ZN.UA sources in law enforcement claim that the operation also concerns former MP Maksym Mykitás.
According to interviewees of the publication, officials of the Ministry of Justice and representatives of “Sens Bank” may also be involved in the case.
At present, NABU and SAP have not named the defendants and have not disclosed the essence of the possible crimes. Law enforcement officials noted that additional information will be provided after the necessary investigative actions.
As a reminder, in 2023 year NABU investigated a case regarding 307 millions of hryvnias of the Ministry of Defense, which, according to the investigation, were illegally seized during the construction of military warehouses for storing missiles and ammunition. Among the defendants is Maksym Mykytás. He is also a suspect in another case regarding offering a bribe to the mayor of Dnipro.
Additionally, in February 2023 year law enforcement conducted searches of a deputy from the banned OPZZh Vadym Stoliar. According to the SBU, his construction companies could have been involved in schemes to launder funds of Viktor Medvedchuk, Taras Kozak, and other sanctioned individuals.
