HCJ suspends judge suspected of organizing kidnapping of his business partner
Kyiv • UNN
The HCJ has suspended a judge of the Commercial Court of Dnipropetrovs'k region suspected of organizing the kidnapping of a business partner. The judge ordered the kidnapping for $17,000 to force the partner to transfer the rights to an agricultural enterprise.
The High Council of Justice has suspended a judge of the Economic Court of Dnipropetrovs'k region. He is suspected of organizing the kidnapping of his business partner. UNN reports this with reference to the State Bureau of Investigation.
Details
According to the SBI, in 2017, the "servant of Themis" decided to earn income from entrepreneurial activities outside his main job. Since judges are prohibited from doing business, he found a business partner for whom he registered an agricultural enterprise in Sumy region.
Over time, the company expanded, and the suspect's partner also invested money in its development. But the judge became less and less satisfied with his partner's management of the company. At one point, he decided to remove him from the company, but the latter did not want to step down for free
Therefore, the judge ordered representatives of the criminal community to kidnap his partner: for USD 17 thousand, the man was to be imprisoned and forced to sign the necessary documents to transfer ownership of the farm's property.
He was served a notice of suspicion of organizing an attempted kidnapping and imprisonment committed for mercenary motives, by prior conspiracy by a group of persons, and carried out over a long period of time (Article 15(2), Article 27(3), Article 146(2) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
The sanction of the article provides for a sentence of imprisonment for up to 5 years.
The suspect was also chosen as a measure of restraint in the form of house arrest with the use of electronic monitoring devices.
