In particular, it concerns Ihor Hrynkevych and his son Roman.

Ihor Hrynkevych has status as a suspect in another case - an attempted bribe.

The $500,000 was offered for assistance in returning property seized from companies under his control during the investigation of criminal proceedings. He is currently in custody.
