Addendum

The prosecutor's office requests that businessman Mazepa be arrested with bail set at UAH 700 million.

The Prosecutor General's Office noted that the detention with such a bail amount for the main person involved in the proceedings was due to the following circumstances:

  •  status of the organizer;
  • detention at a customs post, which indicates an intention to leave Ukraine and possibly evade reporting to law enforcement agencies;
  • property status of the suspect;
  • the presence of other suspects who are currently wanted.
