The People's Deputy was found guilty and sentenced to 9 years in prison, banned from holding certain positions for 3 years, and confiscation of part of his property.
According to the prosecution, Yurchenko asked, via his assistant, for 10 thousand dollars in “gifts” for himself and another 200 thousand dollars — for members of the committee.
This case was heard by the NAPC (National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine) since 2021 year. In the 2024 year, due to a judge replacement, the proceedings had to start over, and this summer there was a risk it would happen again. But the VACs panel managed to finish the review and announce the verdict.
Yurchenko has already become the third sitting member of parliament whom the NAPC has sentenced to a real prison term.
Earlier, MP Anatoliy Hunyko was sentenced to 4 years, and MP Liudmyla Marchenko — to 2 years of imprisonment.
The verdict against Yurchenko may still be appealed.
