The scheme for the multimillion theft of humanitarian aid in Zaporizhzhia was "covered" by the thief-in-law Narik and Arahamiya’s friend
Law enforcement is investigating the involvement of criminal authority "Narik" and businessman Vemir Davityan, a friend of the head of the parliamentary party Servant of the People David Arahamiya, in the embezzlement of humanitarian aid in Zaporizhzhia.
This was reported by political analyst Oleksandr Kochetkov on his Facebook page.
Recall that recently National Anti-Corruption Bureau agent Yevhen Shevchenko reported that in half a year of war 22 sea containers, 389 railcars, 220 cargo trucks were stolen, and the stolen humanitarian aid was sold in stores of several supermarket chains. Among the suspects are regional administration head Oleksandr Starukh, his deputy and an alleged volunteer Zlata Nekrasova, and the city council secretary (deputy mayor) Anatoliy Kurtev.
"According to NABU information, the investigation is also examining the involvement of Vemir Davityan and Oleksandr Petrovskyi, better known as 'Narik,' in the large-scale scheme. Thus, according to an investigation by Ukrainska Pravda, businessman Vemir Davityan is allegedly the 'overseer' for Zaporizhzhia region on behalf of the Office of the President" (he himself, of course, denies it). In October last year UP investigative journalist Mykhailo Tkach published information that Davityan visited the Office of the President three times over two weeks. When Tkach asked one of the deputies to file an official inquiry about this, it turned out that the Office immediately stated that no one had invited any Davityan to Bankova. At the same time, Arahamiya has his own office at Bankova, and he and Davityan are family friends, which is not hidden," the political analyst writes.
He also recalled that "Vemir Davityan is vice president and head of the Zaporizhzhia branch of the Solidarity fund, whose founder is Oleksandr Petrovskyi ('Narik') from Dnipro. And the candidacy of Oleksandr Starukh for the post was lobbied by former deputy governor of Zaporizhzhia region Hennadiy Fuks — a representative of the For the Future party (a political project associated with Ihor Kolomoisky) and, as they say, Davityan’s business partner."
"In general, these are people, or rather decisions, welded together by a mass of shadowy interests."
By the way, photos of products received as humanitarian aid on the windows of Zaporizhzhia stores were published back in spring, and at the beginning of April Servant of the People MP Yuliia Yatsyk sent Starukh a parliamentary inquiry regarding the fate of the humanitarian aid. The MP received an evasive response from the police that from 24 February to mid-April law enforcement had not received reports of humanitarian aid embezzlement from the regional administration. Well, thieves do not report themselves... This provoked the rightful indignation of the MP, since her inquiry contained a list of specific questions — how much of what was received, how it is documented, where it is stored. But she did not receive clear answers. Ukrainian society has not yet either," noted Oleksandr Kochetkov.
In a comment under the post, NABU agent Yevhen Shevchenko noted: "One clarification: they are not 'decisions,' they are marauders who pillaged humanitarian aid during the war! So they should not be judged kindly but put up against a wall and shot the f**k like rabid dogs. But since we do not have a shooting article, they will be tried and I think that each of them will receive 10 years in prison."
