Andriy Sadovyi drew attention to the waning public interest in high-profile investigations. According to him, attention to crimes now lasts only from exposure to bail collection for suspects.
8 November the mayor of Lviv published a post on social media, in which he shared his thoughts against the backdrop of the Karfagen case.
How did Sadovyi comment on the latest revelations in the Karfagen case?
Sadovyi noted that after money is paid for the suspects there is usually silence, and with the emergence of new proceedings they gradually forget about the previous ones. "Anxious, to put it mildly," the mayor shared his feelings.
In his view, public resonance around investigations of serious crimes should not be limited to a few days.
He stressed that pressure on NABU detectives, threats to investigators, and attempts to weaken anti-corruption bodies require a response from all of society.
Journalists often do what the law enforcement system expects, but instead of support they encounter discrediting and direct threats.
Convinced that public trust is primarily a responsibility. Especially for those who hold public office. We cannot simply observe how one high-profile case changes another, and there are no answers.
— said Andriy Sadovyi.
He urged to defend the autonomy of NABU and SAP and to demand a fair completion of each investigation.
According to him, silencing corruption problems during the war is unacceptable, because it destroys the country from within while soldiers defend it on the front.
To recall, 4 November 2026 year NABU and SAP conducted new searches of top officials of the SBU and the police as part of the special operation "Karfagen."
Audios of conversations among participants in a suspected criminal organization were released, which, according to investigators, included representatives of the SBU, National Police, and the Office of the Prosecutor General.
According to the investigation, they for years protected criminal business and discussed pressuring journalists. In particular, in the published recordings, the defendants discussed how to bribe or maim journalist Denys Bihus.
