The head of the Regional Service Center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Rivne, Volyn, and Zhytomyr regions, Volodymyr Kozakov, replaced a Toyota Camry with a newer one, and a large landholding in the family is registered to his wife, according to a report by 368.media citing the official’s declaration for 2025 year.
Kozakov filed the corrected declaration on 12 March 2026. According to the document, he owns 25% of an apartment in Vinnytsia measuring 59 sq. m, and the family also uses an apartment measuring 52 sq. m in Vinnytsia free of charge. Since December 2025 he has rented an apartment in Rivne measuring 41,3 sq. m.
The main landholding is registered to Kozakov’s wife, Iryna Hryhoruk. In the village of Zoziv in the Vinnytsia region, she owns two plots of more than 3 hectares each, a house of 81,6 sq. m and four additional land plots totaling more than 1 hectares.
The declaration also notes a change of vehicle. In February 2024 Kozakov purchased a Toyota Camry 2017 year model for a declared value of 767 thousand UAH. On 25 October 2025 he bought a Toyota Camry 2020 year model for 950 thousand UAH. The same day the declaration records the termination of ownership of another movable asset, likely the previous car.
For 2025 year Kozakov declared nearly 958 thousand UAH in salary — 696,7 thousand UAH at the Vinnytsia service center and an additional 261 thousand UAH in his new position. He also received 850 thousand UAH from the sale of real estate.
The official’s wife declared more than 550 thousand UAH in income, including salaries at two higher education institutions, payments from NAZIAO, and 70 thousand UAH in land rent.
The family also has cash savings: 100 thousand UAH for Kozakov and 14 thousand euros for his wife.
The authors of the report believe that the National Agency on Corruption Prevention (NACP) should verify the value of the purchased vehicles, the sources of funds for the new Camry, the origin of funds used to acquire the land plots and the house, the completeness of income declarations, and the possible registration of assets through relatives.
They also propose checking whether Kozakov used his official position when registering or re-registering his own vehicles, as well as the circumstances of the sale of real estate for 850 thousand UAH and any possible connection between that transaction and the purchase of the new Camry.
