The High Anti-Corruption Court changed the measure of restraint for former Defense Ministry official Oleksandr Liev from custody with the possibility of bail of UAH 50 million to personal obligation due to the absence of corpus delicti in his actions when signing a contract for the supply of ammunition, UNN reports .

Details

If the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office does not see the elements of a crime, how can the court see them

said investigating judge Yaroslav Shkodin, announcing the decision.

The hearing started at 15:00, but only the former official's lawyers showed up, the prosecutors did not come to court, and Liev himself was not brought from the pre-trial detention center. Therefore, the investigating judge of the HACC adjourned the hearing to 18:30 for the prosecutors to appear in court. However, no one else came to the hearing, although there are 13 prosecutors in the group. They also failed to organize a video conference between Liiev and the court because the power was allegedly cut off in the pre-trial detention center.

We learned about a significant change in circumstances... The detective sent the court a resolution of the senior group of prosecutors at the time, Yuriy Luchkiv, to change the jurisdiction. In fact, Mr. Luchkiv stated that despite the fact that the suspects Liev and Nakhkur were third-ranking executive officials at the time of the incriminated crime, the proceedings have not yet collected sufficient evidence to qualify their actions under Part 5 of Article 191 of the Criminal Code. During this month (while Liev was in the pre-trial detention center - ed.), some investigative actions were obviously carried out and as a result, the senior prosecutor concluded that there was insufficient evidence to qualify the articles of Liev and Nakhur under Part 5 of Article 191 of the CCU... Accordingly, such wording of this resolution indicates that the prosecutor's office concluded that the suspicion of committing a crime under Part 5 of Article 191 of the CCU was unjustified

said lawyer Markiyan Bem.

At the same time, he emphasized that Liev is not suspected under any other articles of the Criminal Code.

Recall

On January 27, the Security Service of Ukraine detained Oleksandr Liev in the case of signing a contract between the Ministry of Defense and Lviv Arsenal for the supply of ammunition. A few days later, on January 30, the High Anti-Corruption Court rejected the prosecution's motion and refused to impose any preventive measure on Liev.

Prosecutors appealed the decision, and on February 12, the Appeals Chamber of the High Anti-Corruption Court imposed a preventive measure on Liiev in the form of arrest for two months until April 8, 2024, with the possibility of posting UAH 50 million bail. The former head of the Department of Military and Technical Policy, Development of Armaments and Military Equipment of the Ministry of Defense said that he believed the court's decision was unlawful.

UNN decided to look into this case and restore the chronology.
