Dmytro Natalukha called on law enforcement not to allow the former director of the enterprise to leave the country
The head of the State Property Fund, Dmytro Natalukha, said that after the restoration of state control over the pharmaceutical factory Indar, the new management found 30 employees whom no one on the staff knows, as well as additional instances of transfers of funds to private companies. This was reported by Glavcom with reference to Dmytro Natalukha’s video address on Facebook.
According to the head of the State Property Fund, seven days have passed since the state restored control over the enterprise. During that time the new management team began checking the documentation, personnel, and financial activities of the factory.
One of the first discoveries concerned the circumstances of the former director Lyubov Vyshnevska’s tenure. As Natalukha said, her contract, concluded in 2012, provided for work at the enterprise for three years. However, in fact she ran the factory for about 14 years.
“Instead, three years turned into 14 years. How that happened will be assessed by history and lawyers,” the head of the Fund noted.
Natalukha claims that during this period the director effectively unilaterally determined the rules of the enterprise’s operation: she decided who to pay under contracts, approved or did not approve the staffing schedule, and submitted or did not submit financial plans and reports.
In addition, as a result of initial checks at the factory, 30 so‑called “dead souls” were found. According to the head of the Fund, these are people whom the enterprise’s employees do not know and cannot explain who they are or what work they perform.
New details regarding 70 million UAH
Separately, Natalukha spoke about financial transactions with a private company that had previously attracted the attention of the State Property Fund.
According to him, in 2017–2022 years investigations were conducted and criminal proceedings opened regarding this firm. Despite this, in 2023–2024 years the factory transferred 70 million UAH to it. The funds were provided in the form of interest‑free repayable financial assistance.
The head of the Fund said that the company is now rapidly approaching bankruptcy. He drew attention to the fact that financial transactions with it took place after the earlier investigations.
According to Natalukha, the audit also revealed two other instances of money transfers under a similar scheme.
“We found two more companies to which 20 million UAH were moved in 2025 and 2026 under the same scheme. Interest‑free repayable financial assistance from the Indar factory to a private company,” he reported.
One of these companies, according to enterprise employees, is a pharmacy chain that is allegedly controlled by Lyubov Vyshnevska. This information still needs to be verified.
Natalukha appealed to law enforcement
The head of the State Property Fund believes that the discovered circumstances require proper legal evaluation. He announced his readiness to hand over to law enforcement agencies all inspection materials, documents, and financial data on which the Fund based its conclusions.
Separately, Natalukha appealed to law enforcement to take measures to prevent the former director of Indar from leaving Ukraine.
“I would like to address law enforcement agencies with a call not to allow Ms. Vyshnevska to flee abroad. Take all possible measures to ensure that she remains on the territory of Ukraine,” the head of the Fund said.
Natalukha emphasized that the Fund is ready to provide the investigation with all materials it has. At the same time, he did not report that Vyshnevska had been served with a suspicion or that criminal proceedings had been opened directly on the newly discovered episodes.
The final legal assessment of the circumstances must be given by law enforcement agencies.
Recall that on 29 October the State Property Fund reported the restoration of control over the Indar factory and a change in its management. The new director of the enterprise became Ihor Matyunin, who replaced Lyubov Vyshnevska. During the transfer of management, Fund representatives discovered the disappearance of 27 hard drives from the servers. Later the drives were found in a box in the trunk of an official car. A forensic and operational group of the National Police also worked at the enterprise.
In a previous statement about financial operations, the State Property Fund said that one private counterparty owed Indar more than 72 million UAH. Almost 69 million UAH of that amount was unpaid interest‑free financial assistance. According to the Fund, documents were also found regarding the company’s preparation for bankruptcy and family ties between its management and representatives of the previous factory management.
Indar is the only full‑cycle insulin producer in Ukraine. The state owns 70,7% of the enterprise’s shares. Despite the controlling stake, for many years the state was effectively removed from the factory’s management due to legal and court decisions.
