At the same time, the SBI did not change the qualification of crimes committed by members of the criminal organization led by businessman Ihor Hrynkevych. It is noted that the suspicions were served in mid-January 2024 on five people of creating and participating in a criminal organization and of seizing another's property by breach of trust (fraud) committed under martial law, in particularly large amounts, by a criminal organization (Part 5 of Article 190, Part 1.2 of Article 255 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
The criminal actions were classified as fraud, as they were organized with the aim of seizing other people's property (funds) through the conclusion of contracts with the Ministry of Defense by a number of controlled contractors for the purchase of goods, including clothing for the military. As a result, they delivered products of inadequate quality that could not be used for their intended purpose, which is qualified as fraud and breach of trust.
The SBI emphasized that they continue to take all necessary procedural measures and document all illegal actions of the members of the criminal organization.

He was detained on December 29, 2023, for offering a $500,000 bribe to one of the heads of the SBI's Main Investigation Department for assistance in returning property seized from companies he controlled during the investigation.
