In 2020, the said MP declared cryptocurrency worth UAH 24.6 million, which allegedly belonged to him since 2019. However, the pre-trial investigation, which was initiated based on the NACP's materials, found that the cryptocurrency wallet, which the MP indicated in his declaration, had never actually belonged to him - all transactions for the purchase of virtual currency were carried out by citizens of another state who were in no way related to the MP.
It is also known that the detection and investigation of this crime took place under the procedural guidance of SAPO prosecutors by NABU detectives in cooperation with the competent US authorities within the framework of international legal assistance.
