On the eve of winter shelling, Kyivzelenbud signed a contract for 88,56 million UAH to repair the park near the Culture House of the DVRZ. The tender effectively took place without competition, and the contractor for the large-scale works was the company whose name has already appeared in stories around Yuri Holik.
According to the provided investigation, the sole participant in the procurement was “BK Budinvest.”
The works are planned to be completed by the end of 2027 year. For 88,56 million UAH, the park will include a dry fountain costing 10,72 million UAH, children’s and sports grounds, running tracks, irrigation system, a borehole, video surveillance, and landscaping.
And this is where it starts to get interesting.
“BK Budinvest” is a name well known to those who follow the stories around Yuri Holik. Starting from 2016 year, the company has received government contracts totaling approximately 11,9 billion UAH. A significant portion of these contracts was in the Dnipropetrovsk region.
Earlier, Bihus.Info published correspondence of a person whom journalists identified as Yuri Holik, with Denys Ostrovskyi, associated with “BK Budinvest.” In the correspondence, budget financing, subsidies, and hospital repairs were discussed. Some messages were linked by the whistleblowers to subsequent allocations of funds and conduct of tenders.
Holik himself stated that he does not remember such correspondence and suggested that he might have only given advice.
Now, however, “BK Budinvest” is obtaining a contract in Kyiv without competition—88,56 million UAH for the repair of the park near the Culture House of the DVRZ.
Formally it looks like an ordinary procurement. But when almost 89 million UAH are awarded to a single participant, and the company already has a multi-billion track record of state contracts and mentions in investigations about ties to Holik, questions about such a story only grow.
