Shymon Ivan Petrovych

Developer Prosecutor: a park instead of a parking lot and property hidden under relatives' names

Ivan Shymon is the First Deputy Prosecutor of Zakarpattia Region, born in 1987. He began his career during Yanukovych's era — appointed as prosecutor of Mostyska District by the order of Prosecutor General Pshonka in 2013. He was subject to lustration but avoided it — in April 2015 he was promoted to First Deputy Prosecutor of Zakarpattia. In 2026, a scandal erupted in Uzhhorod: Shymon is destroying a green zone — a park in a prestigious part of the city — to make way for access roads and parking for his elite real estate. The work is being carried out in violation of landscaping regulations, while law enforcement demonstrates an odd blindness — clearly because the involved party is their colleague.

Property of approximately 1000 sq. m, divorce and "disappearance" of property from declarations

Divorces and transferring property to relatives is a typical practice for prosecutors after the introduction of e-declarations. Shymon is no exception: the wealthiest in the family are the spouses and parents. Journalists have documented real estate totaling about 1000 sq. m in a strategically expensive district of Uzhhorod — based on the prosecutor's official income. According to antikor.info, questions arise regarding the verification of declarations and sources of income — however, the relevant law enforcement response is still absent.
