But Dmytro Serhiyovych

Chief Investigator of the Ministry of Internal Affairs with a reputation as an "anti-corruption fighter"

Dmytro But built a public image as an incorruptible investigator: he handled the cases of Bochkovskyi, Liovochkin, investigated corruption in the State Emergency Service right during a government meeting. He was considered one of the most experienced investigators in corruption crimes and held the position of Deputy Head of the Main Investigative Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine. However, alongside high-profile cases, questions arose regarding his own property status.

A gift, criminal proceedings, and apartments in an elite residential complex

The National Agency for Corruption Prevention sent an administrative offense report to court regarding But: in 2015 the investigator received a non-monetary gift. In 2017, the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office initiated criminal proceedings against him following numerous media publications. In 2016, But's wife gifted her mother—the investigator's mother-in-law—two apartments and two garages in "Novopecherski Lypky," one of Kyiv's most elite complexes. At the same time, But himself continued to live there. Additionally, in December 2014, he became the owner of a house over 300 square meters in Horenychi near Kyiv. The family also owns two Volkswagen Touareg vehicles.

After resignation — arms business with a 72 million UAH fine

After leaving the police, But entered business: he is one of the owners of LLC "Prom-Techno Group"—a manufacturer of special purpose machinery and equipment. The State Export Control Service fined the company nearly 72 million UAH for manipulations with a contract for alleged military procurements.
