Mercedes G63 for 1,7 million dollars and a Range Rover: inconsistencies found in declarations of the family of the head of the MIA Service Center in Obukhiv, Chyzh

Mercedes G63 for 1,7 million dollars and a Range Rover: inconsistencies found in declarations of the family of the head of the MIA Service Center in Obukhiv, Chyzh

Head of the MIA Service Center in Obukhiv Serhiy Chyzh — family network.

Mercedes G63 not listed

In the initial and corrected declarations of Chyzh’s son-in-law, Leonid Khomenko (an unemployed deputy of Hirska Village Council in Kyiv region), for 2020 year, the sections on vehicles, income, and monetary assets state the absence of declarable items.

In a notification of significant changes in 2021 year he declares a Mercedes G63 (2014) valued at 1,7 million UAH with the acquisition date 2 December 2020 year. Both annual declarations were filed on 21 July at 17:44 and 18:15 respectively, and the notification about the G63—on the same day at 19:34. This creates an obvious chronological inconsistency.

The source of funding for the car requires separate explanation, since income and monetary assets are not reflected in the annual declarations. At present this concerns a discrepancy between the son-in-law’s documents, not a proven fact of the car being financed by the father-in-law.

In Khomenko’s declaration for 2021 year it is already indicated he has 2,82 million UAH in cash and 197 UAH in an account, a salary of 46 thousand UAH from Itera Farm LLC, as well as receipts of 1,98 million UAH and 90 thousand UAH from the disposal of movable property and 2 million UAH described as “income from the sale of real estate, carried out in 2020 year.”

At the same time, the entry on a sale in 2020 year in the declaration for 2021 needs clarification as to when exactly 2 million UAH was received and how this transaction was reported in the prior period’s declaration. Without such reconciliation the amount cannot automatically be attributed to the cash flow of 2021 year or considered a repeated receipt.

The same document notes 25% of Fizzy UAY LLC (EDRPOU 44479805) with a share value of 12,25 thousand UAH and an acquisition date of 9 November 2021 year; this share is also present in the declaration for 2022 year. This confirms a historical corporate connection of the son-in-law, but the nominal value of the share alone does not indicate business profitability, dividend payments, or financing of the Chyzh family.

For 2022 year Khomenko declared 3,7 million UAH in cash and 55 UAH in an account. Among receipts—980 thousand UAH from the disposal of movable property to Mariia Valentynivna Khomenko, 50 thousand UAH and 25 thousand UAH from other individuals, and 25 thousand UAH from Absolut Ltd LLC.

Another 322 thousand UAH is recorded in a category that includes both the value of warranty replacements of goods and monetary compensation when returning goods to the seller. Without a document from the seller it is impossible to assert that these were cash funds rather than in-kind income. The identical surname of the buyer Mariia Khomenko also does not confirm her relation to Leonid or the transaction’s fictitiousness.

At the end of 2023 year Khomenko’s cash rose to 5,35 million UAH, and the account shows 10 UAH. Over the year he declared 1,85 million UAH from the sale of movable property, and his wife Anhelina (Chyzh)—81 thousand UAH in salary.

Daughter and son-in-law, 2023 year: risk of double counting

Range Rover Evoque (2021) with acquisition date 9 February 2023 year and value 700 thousand UAH is listed as Anhelina’s property both in her father’s declaration upon dismissal and in her husband’s declaration for 2023 year.

If you compare the father’s declaration up to 5 October 2023 year with balances for 2022 year, a hypothetical purchase of the Evoque for 700 thousand UAH creates a deficit of 335 thousand UAH taking into account other expenses.

The isolated balance of Khomenko also has limits: 3,7 million UAH of prior monetary assets plus 1,93 million UAH of income minus 5,35 million UAH of year-end assets leave only 280 thousand UAH for acquisition and other expenses. In the transactions section for 2023 year it is also indicated the purchase of movable property on 14 March for 149 thousand UAH, which requires separate reconciliation with vehicle transactions.

The NACP must clarify the source of payment for the Evoque, the amount of Anhelina’s funds at the date the joint household was created, and the cash flow for the operation of 149 thousand UAH.
