Mass searches are underway at Ukroboronprom in the cases of Poroshenko and Co.
The State Bureau of Investigation is conducting searches at the Ukroboronprom concern and at its member exporting enterprises, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
This was announced by the director of the State Bureau of Investigation, Roman Truba, on Telegram.
“The SBI is conducting searches at the Ukroboronprom concern and at the exporting enterprises that are part of it. All investigative actions that take place there are authorized. They occur as part of a pre-trial investigation into criminal proceedings into abuse of official position by officials of the Board of the National Bank of Ukraine in 2016,” Truba wrote.
According to him, investigators calmly and unhindered do their work: they confiscate documents and other things that will have evidentiary value. There is no pressure from the SBI, no obstacles from Ukroboronprom, as Truba noted, so far.
Let us remind you that after the publication of a journalistic investigation, a scandal about corruption in the defense sector broke out in Ukraine. Against this backdrop, First Deputy Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Oleg Gladkovsky was fired. NABU opened a case regarding possible corruption in the defense sector after a journalistic investigation. Subsequently, NABU conducted searches of Gladkovsky and other defendants in the “defense” case. The amount of losses in cases involving schemes at Ukroboronprom enterprises is about UAH 1 billion.
The searches were commented on by the initiator of the criminal investigation of ex-President Petro Poroshenko, lawyer Andrey Portnov.
“Friends, good news. Mass searches in Poroshenko’s criminal cases are now underway, authorized by the court. In the case of looting and theft in the army, searches are being carried out at Gontareva’s house, at Ukroboronprom and at the structures that took part in the laundering of funds stolen from the army by Poroshenko’s team.
At Zhuliany airport, searches continue in the case of Poroshenko using fake passports when flying to the Maldives archipelago.
Don't thank me, Pyotr Alekseevich. Soon there will be suspicion, lifting of immunity, a preventive measure, an indictment and a verdict. Everything you systematically asked for,” Portnov wrote in his Telegram channel.
Thank you!
