The Prosecutor General confirmed that he and his family live there, but do not own it. Rent can range from 3 to 10 thousand dollars per month.
Journalists from the Bihus.Info project found Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko’s house — he, incidentally, submitted a resignation letter yesterday — in Kozyn, Kyiv region, which came to light during the investigation of the case into the protection of call centers. From the recordings the SAP prosecutor read during the High Anti-Corruption Court hearing, it became clear that he had not merely business relations with the main current suspect in the “Carthage” case — Deputy Head of the Department of International Cooperation Serhiy “Chancellor” Kropyva — they went beyond the “boss-subordinate” scheme, the investigation says.
For example, Kropyva took care of installing security, a fireplace, a gas boiler, and a generator in the still undeclared house of the Prosecutor General in Kozyn, communicated with the foreman, and sometimes paid for repair work himself.
Journalists learned that this house is registered to a person completely unrelated to Kravchenko.
“It’s about this house with an area of about 300 square meters. White and black stone and a large fence... It’s brand new,” the investigation says.
The house was registered at the beginning of 2026. Its owner is a 73-year-old woman who opened a sole proprietorship last month. She does not appear in Kravchenko’s declaration. Journalists called the owner’s daughter, Yaroslava. The woman said the house actually belongs to her mother, and that she rented it out for a year in May, but she still didn’t know who the tenant was.
Yaroslava did not disclose the rent amount. However, similar houses in Kozyn cost from 3 to 10 thousand dollars per month.
Kravchenko himself confirmed that they live in this house, but do not own it. He also noted that some additional items were needed there, including a generator and a gas boiler, which “Chancellor” arranged for on the recordings.
Recall, in 4 September NABU and SAP announced the operation “Carthage,” during which a criminal group was exposed that covered for a network of fraudulent call centers: it coordinated searches of “other people’s” offices, while collecting subscription fees of 20–24 thousand dollars per month from “their own,” sources tell ZN.UA. The investigation’s suspects include high-ranking officials of the Office of the Prosecutor General, in particular Deputy Head of the Department of International Cooperation Serhiy Kropyva (on the tapes — “Chancellor”), whom the High Anti-Corruption Court has already placed in custody with the possibility of posting 120 million hryvnias bail.
Also involved in this story is Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko, who predictably denies his involvement. Nevertheless, the investigation established that Kropyva was close to the Prosecutor General, he supervised and paid for repairs at his house in Kozyn, and it was Kropyva who, on one of the recordings, called his “Boss” by his patronymic — Andriyovych.
