"Skhemy" found out who posted bail for Mudra. Among them — a cleaner, a singer, and a company that trades meat

The largest amount – 5 937 000 hryvnias – was contributed by Mudra herself.

The Schemes journalists obtained a list of those who paid the bail for former deputy head of the Office of the President Iryna Mudra — the suspect in the Forest Gump case.

Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty reports this.

Among them, notably, the former official herself, her civil partner, a singer, a private company involved in wholesale meat trading; a cleaning woman who was convicted of theft of gaming devices; two bail payers in the so-called Kaufman-Borukhovich case concerning illegal possession of the Odessa International Airport, and a man against whom Kyivteploenergo sued for debt. In commenting on motives, he said he simply earned on it.

The largest amount – 5 937 000 hryvnias – was contributed by Mudra herself.

Another 4 400 000 hryvnias were paid in two installments by Pavlo Polyarysh. He is Iryna Mudra’s civil partner.

2 400 000 hryvnias of bail were paid by 35-year-old Maria Skaballanovych. According to open sources, she is a singer and songwriter from Dnipro, now living in Odesa. Skaballovych’s husband Oleksandr Froimovich is the owner of the newly formed Odesa firm Fortis Rights, which specializes in buying and selling real estate. He, according to YouControl data, also acted as a bail payer in the so-called Kaufman-Borukhovich case.

Maria Skaballanych is connected through business with another bail payer, Mykola Kuznets, who paid 700 thousand hryvnias on Mudra’s behalf.

Another 990 thousand hryvnias in bail for Iryna Mudra was paid in two installments by the company "Maltex-M" — registered in Lutsk.

692 359 hryvnias of bail for Mudra were paid by 59-year-old Vladyslav Halkan. According to YouControl, he heads companies Worktime (registered activity: accounting and auditing, tax consulting), Kodlink (computer programming) and Rintes (purchase and sale of own real estate), and in the first two he is also a beneficiary and founder. He is registered in a dorm room in Kyiv. In August 2026, Kyivteploenergo sued him for debt, and in 2021 he appeared as a victim in a robbery case.

Mudra was bailed in the amount of 692 359 hryvnias by 42-year-old Kateryna Zheglova. YouControl lists her as founder and beneficiary of the company Mira Trade in Kramatorsk. Last year she had two proceedings. In the first, Kyivteploenergo demanded she pay a debt. In the second she was tried for theft: in April 2025, when Zheglova was working as a cleaner, she took five Nintendo gaming devices from the company office, worth about 44,5 thousand hryvnias.

Almost the same amount – 692 350 hryvnias was contributed by 45-year-old Svitlana Chaika. YouControl indicates she is founder and head of five companies.

Another portion of funds, more than 3,5 million hryvnias, was contributed by 10 individuals, namely:

Antonova L.O. – 350 000 and 300 000 hryvnias;

Goncharuk Oksana Anatoliyivna – 395 600 hryvnias;

Trofimchuk Andriy Mykolayovych – 395 600 hryvnias;

Yakovets Kostyantyn Anatoliyovych – 395 600 hryvnias;

Sinitsyna T.V. – 290 000 hryvnias;

Bugai D.V. – 200 000 hryvnias;

Smik A.L. – 131 000 hryvnias.

According to Schemes, eight people who paid nearly identical bail amounts for Mudra — Natalya Glazacheva, Vladyslav Halkan, Kateryna Zheglova, Svitlana Chaika, Oksana Goncharuk, Andriy Trofimchuk, Kostyantyn Yakovets, and Valeriy Voronin — did so on the same day.

As reported, today they paid 20 million hryvnias bail for Mudra.

Mudra is a suspect in the Forest Gump case. As part of this case, NABU claimed the exposure of a criminal group that, according to the investigation, “organized and facilitated the legalization of funds obtained through criminal activity.” The group reportedly included the deputy head of the Office of the President, a former member of parliament, the chairman of the board of a state bank, and the head of the bank’s supervisory board.

The former official herself denies guilt and says she became a "victim of provocation" by another defendant — former MP Maksym Mykitas.
