NAZK exposed DPSU official Voytenko for lying in his declaration by nearly 5 million hryvnias
The head of the fire support organization sector of the operational management of the Border Guard Department of the State Border Guard Service (DPSU), Yevhen Voytenko, was found to have significant declaration violations related to cryptocurrency.
This became known from the materials of NAZK’s full inspection for 2024 year.
The declaration was submitted on 19 March 2025. The inspection was conducted from 15 December 2025 to 1 June 2026; its term was extended due to delayed responses to inquiries.
As a result of the inspection, it was established that the declarant provided inaccurate information totaling 4,86 million hryvnias, which contains signs of Part 1 of Art. 366-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
The largest portion of the discrepancies concerns cryptocurrency. Voytenko declared 1,25 BTC on the MEXC exchange worth 4,75 million hryvnias as of 15 December 2024, but NAZK was unable to confirm this information.
The official’s explanations were contradictory: in the declaration the asset is listed as held on an exchange, while in explanations he referred to losing a Tangem Wallet hardware wallet along with private keys. According to the exchange and the State Bureau of Investigation (DBR) materials, the relevant assets were not present on the MEXC account, and no confirmations of expenditures to purchase the bitcoins on the specified date were provided.
Cryptoassets on Binance were also not disclosed: 411,23 USDT (17 thousand hryvnias), as well as small balances of EthereumPoW, Bitcoin, First Digital USD, Ethereum Classic, Ethereum and Polygon totaling 17 thousand hryvnias. Regarding Litecoin the official indicated 13,56 coins worth 67 541 hryvnia with an acquisition date of 11 March 2023, whereas exchange records show the asset was acquired on 9 December 2024 in the amount of 7,64 coins. The difference amounts to 25,7 thousand hryvnias. The Bonk cryptocurrency of his wife was also not disclosed (3 thousand coins, 3,86 UAH).
In the real estate section Voytenko listed an apartment in Kyiv that he rents, but did not indicate his wife’s and children’s right to use it, although they actually lived there during the reporting period.
Concerning the Renault Megane (2013) he declared a value of 220 thousand hryvnias, while the vehicle registry shows 10 thousand hryvnias at the date of acquisition. The agency accepted the explanation about purchase for 8,8 thousand dollars, since the amount correlates with market prices, and did not include the difference in the total sum of inaccurate information.
In the income section social payments to his wife totaling 28 thousand hryvnias were not reported. The National Agency did not establish whether the official was aware of these payments, and therefore classified them as inaccurate information.
In monetary assets, funds in PrivatBank are listed as a single amount of 185,6 thousand hryvnias instead of separate 66,8 thousand hryvnias and 4,4 thousand dollars. The National Agency did not find signs of illicit enrichment or unjustified assets. The accuracy of valuation of other declared assets corresponds to the available sources.
