Bihus.Info reveals house in Kozyn that Prosecutor General Kravchenko may be using in secret
Investigative journalists from Bihus.Info have found a house in the village of Kozyn in Kyiv Oblast that Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko may be using in secret.
Source: Bihus.Info, citing its sources
Details: The report says this is the house mentioned on 6 September during a High Anti-Corruption Court (HACC) hearing on the choice of a pre-trial restriction for Serhii Kropyva, deputy head of the International Legal Cooperation Department of the Prosecutor General's Office.
Journalists learned of the location of the house, which is not listed in the Prosecutor General's declaration, from their own sources.
According to the sources, the house is in Kozyn, Kyiv Oblast, and has an area of about 300 sq m. It is owned by a 73-year-old woman who registered as an individual entrepreneur a month ago and is not listed among Kravchenko's relatives in his declaration.
Background:
- At the court hearing, a prosecutor from the Specialised Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office said that Kropyva, who is accused of providing "protection" to scam call centres, coordinated renovation work at Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko's house in Kozyn.
- The HACC subsequently ordered that Kropyva be remanded in custody, with an alternative bail of UAH 120 million (about US$2.7 million).
- On 6 September, Kravchenko denied allegations that he was involved in protecting illegal call centres and ordered checks to be carried out at the Office of the Prosecutor General, including polygraph tests for staff at units that handle such cases.
