This was reported by LB.ua with reference to its own source at Kiev airport.
According to him, Rosenblatt had gold and diamonds with him.
The interlocutor recalled that Rosenblatt did not appear in court yesterday and today.
Rosenblat himself called his detention at the airport arbitrary.
“I personally informed NABU that I was planning to leave Ukraine for three days, although I was not obliged to report this. After all, now there are no restrictions on my movement. Attached to the application are copies of tickets in both directions. But NABU has its own laws and procedures. The arbitrariness continues!” - he wrote on Facebook.
Let us remind you that the Rada lifted Rosenblat’s parliamentary immunity on the proposal of the GPU. On July 18, the Solomensky District Court of Kyiv chose a preventive measure for Rosenblat in the form of 7 million hryvnia bail. He is charged with accepting a bribe of $285 thousand in bribes. About a year ago, as part of an investigation into illegal amber mining, a NABU agent contacted the people's deputy. She identified herself as a representative of the Fujairah company from the UAE, which allegedly intended to mine and export amber from the Zhytomyr region. The deputy had to help the agent obtain a license to use subsoil and make legislative amendments to the Customs and Tax Code.
