People's Deputy Serhiy Kuzminykh, accused of bribery, continues to attend meetings of the "Servant of the People" faction, despite his statement about a temporary withdrawal. The court is examining evidence, including banknotes and correspondence, and Kuzminykh is trying to delay the case.
More than 50% of the hearings in the bribery case of MP Kuzminykh did not take place due to the absence of the defendant and his lawyers. This may be a tactic to delay the process, which could lead to a change in the pre-trial detention measure.
After the exposure of MP Khrystenko as an FSB agent, law enforcement's attention should be turned to Serhiy Kuzminykh, who is suspected of abusing influence in favor of a pharmaceutical manufacturer. His actions may be qualified as a criminal offense, similar to bribery, for which he was previously detained.
