500 million UAH of stolen gasoline, self-incrimination and 100 million UAH "bail" to avoid imprisonment

Suspected of involvement in the theft of gasoline worth 500 million UAH through Naftogaz structures. During the investigation, Katsuba admitted involvement in corruption schemes and paid 100 million UAH to avoid arrest; however, law enforcement and courts refused to drop charges despite these payments.
