The NACP allowed the Odessa-based businessman Borukhovich to remove the bracelet
The High Anti-Corruption Court removed the electronic bracelet, but extended until 27 the term of the remaining duties imposed on businessman Alex Borukhovich (Granovsky). He is suspected of organizing the appropriation of the city airport Odessa and the profits from its activities amounting to 2,5 billion hryvnias.
As is known, the Anti-Corruption Court set Borukhovich's preventive measure in the form of 120,78 million hryvnias bail with the following duties: to appear at the first request; not to leave Odesa without permission; to report changes of his place of residence and place of work; to refrain from communicating with other suspects in the case and with witnesses; to surrender foreign passports for safekeeping and to wear an electronic bracelet. The prosecutor of SAP asked to extend their validity, but the judge canceled the bracelet obligation.
Recall that NABU and SAP announced suspicions against businessmen Boris Kauffman and Alex Borukhovich, as well as the former mayor of Odesa Oleksiy Kostusev and his former deputy. According to the investigation, in 2011 year, a group of persons, including the former Odessa mayor, his deputy, the head of one limited liability company and two businessmen, devised and implemented an criminal scheme, as a result of which the property complex of a strategic facility—the international airport—was transferred from the ownership of the municipal community into joint ownership of the city and so-called private investors.
As a result of the further actions of the scheme participants, the city completely lost any control over the facility and did not receive any profit from its activity. Instead, the individuals who obtained control over the airport for years embezzled the income from its activity. To prevent returning the airport to city ownership, all its property was mortgaged with a bank to obtain a loan, which was not repaid at all.
Ultimately, as a result of the scheme, its participants seized the airport’s property for 118 million and income from its activity exceeding 2,5 billion hryvnias.
