Member of Parliament-majoritarian Serhiy Labazuk disclosed a cash gift of 1,75 million UAH, but the available information about the declaration does not specify to whom he gave the funds. We are talking about an amount of 1,75 million UAH, noted as a cash gift, writes Vykryvach.
The recipient of the funds is not named in the declaration, so it is impossible to determine from the data provided who exactly became the recipient of the payment. Information about the recipient also is not provided in the source materials supplied for this publication. The gift amount is 1 750 000 UAH. Thus, this is a payment whose size exceeds one million hryvnias. At the same time, the information provided does not include the date of transfer, familial or other ties between the deputy and the recipient, or the purpose of such a gift. Serhiy Labazuk is a deputy elected in a single-member district. In this case, the key question remains the identification of the person who received the declared 1,75 million UAH. The mere fact of declaring a cash gift does not provide grounds to conclude a violation of the law. To assess the legality of the operation, data on the circumstances of its execution, the parties to the transaction, and the compliance of the information reflected in the declaration with established requirements are necessary. Currently, the source data contain no explanation from Labazuk regarding the purpose of the funds or the reasons why the recipient’s name is not indicated. There is also no information on whether the gift is related to a sale of property, transfer of assets, family circumstances, or another financial operation. The substantial size of the declared sum may draw attention to the origin of the funds and the circumstances of their transfer. At the same time, without additional documents or official explanations, it is impossible to determine the operation’s details and the recipient’s identity solely based on the information provided.
The full data of the declaration, possible explanations from the deputy, and information from authorized bodies, if they check the declared information for compliance with the law, will have further bearing.
