The head of the Berehove District Prosecutor’s Office, Dmytro Kyrylenko, was caught in a scandal over his attorney status. Attorney Larysa Kryvoruchko made public a complaint to the Disciplinary Commission on the Bar and Practice of Law (KDKP). She asserts that Kyrylenko violated incompatibility requirements by combining the prosecutor’s position with attorney status.
The basis for the complaint is his declarations dating from 2018 year. They list membership in the non-governmental NGO “National Association of Advocates of Ukraine.” The author refers to Art.; 25 of the Law on Prevention of Corruption and part 2 of Art. 18 of the Law on the Prosecutor’s Office: a prosecutor is prohibited from engaging in other paid activities, including practicing as an attorney.
She interprets membership in the association as confirmation of attorney status under Art. 45 of the Law on Advocacy. Separately, she claims that the Unified Register of Advocates of Ukraine contains no records of suspension of his right to practice law.
Kyrylenko is registered in Uzhhorod. His wife is Lyudmyla Ivanivna, son Danilo. In section 16, membership in the National Association of Advocates of Ukraine is listed. In section 15, secondary employment, there are no entries. There is also no income from attorney activities in the income section.
For the year he declared a salary at the regional prosecutor’s office of 1,65 million UAH and a pension of 91 thousand UAH.
His wife received 605 thousand UAH salary at the State Migration Service and 478 thousand UAH from disposal of movable property (Pavlo Ivanovych Syrokhman).
The official owns an apartment in Uzhhorod, 54,5 sq. m, since 28 September 2005 (226 thousand UAH). His wife and son reportedly live there.
The wife owns a plot of land of 1 159 sq. m in the village of Huta of the Onokivska hromada since 1 November 2010 year, and an apartment in Uzhhorod of 52,2 sq. m since 18 May 2023 for 1,57 million UAH.
The official has a Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 150 (2018), acquired on 27 April 2024, for 1,23 million UAH. His wife owns a BMW X4 (2020) since 14 June 2025. For only 958 thousand UAH.
Cash — 16 thousand dollars in his possession, and 92 thousand UAH in an account at Sense Bank.
Kyrylenko was born in 1980 in Zhytomyr. He has been with the prosecutor’s office since 2006, starting as an assistant prosecutor in Irshava district. He then worked in five districts of Zakarpattia and in the regional prosecutor’s office apparatus.
From December 2015 to December 2020 he headed the Uzhhorod Local Prosecutor’s Office. On 26 April 2021 he was introduced as head of the Mukachevo District Prosecutor’s Office; the appointment was announced by then-regional prosecutor Dmytro Kazak.
