In court, Iryna Mudra made a statement on this matter
Former deputy head of the President's Office Iryna Mudra, whom the court put in custody as part of the "Forrest Gump" and "Femida" cases, said that she did not take money from another figure, Maksym Mykytas, that was mentioned on NABU recordings. She said this during the court hearing.
"I have never received from Mykytas 4 million dollars: neither in cash, nor to a bank account, nor in any other form," Mudra said.
She added that, allegedly, the case materials do not contain seized money or testimony about the fact of its transfer. Supposedly, there are only the words of "another person," meaning Mykytas, and possibly "his own intent."
The court sent Mudra to pretrial detention with an alternative bail of 20 million hryvnias. Although the SAP requested 200 million hryvnias in bail.
According to the SAP, Iryna Mudra, together with former member of parliament Maksym Mykytas and current MP Vadym Stolar, was part of a criminal group whose main purpose was the illegal seizure of expensive real estate and other enterprise assets. To do this, they unlawfully took control of business entities.
Moreover, as the investigation established, Mudra, together with Mykytas and Stolar, also ensured the legalization of 150 million hryvnias to post bail for one of the figures in the "Midas" case and the former ministers of energy and justice, Herman Halushchenko. Controlled companies and the management of the state-owned "Sense Bank" were also involved in the scheme.
Maksym Mykytas has already been placed in custody with an alternative bail of 30 million hryvnias. A preventive measure was also chosen for a Mykytas subordinate, who is also suspected of involvement in the group's schemes.
According to media reports, Stolar also received suspicions on five counts. In particular — creating a criminal organization, unlawful appropriation of property, forging documents, and unauthorized interference with the operation of information systems.
