The National Anti-Corruption Bureau has put former Member of Parliament Dmitry Kryuchkov on the wanted list in connection with a case involving the embezzlement of over 1.5 billion UAH from the companies JSC “Cherkassyoblenergo” and JSC “Zaporizhzhiaoblenergo.”
This is evidenced by data from the wanted records of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, as reported by “Slovo i Delo.”
It is noted that October 3, 2024, is the date of Kryuchkov's disappearance.
Previously, it became known that ex-MP Dmitry Kryuchkov left Ukraine and has not returned.
Recall that the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office accuses ex-MP Dmitry Kryuchkov of abuses. According to the prosecution's version, in 2015-2016, officials from the CHAP “HC Energomerezha,” PJSC “Cherkassyoblenergo,” and PJSC “Zaporizhzhiaoblenergo,” acting in the interests of the private company HC Energomerezha, violated the requirements of the Law of Ukraine “On Electric Power Industry” by signing a debt transfer agreement and changing the debtor, thereby abusing their official position to seize funds that were supposed to be received by PJSC “Cherkassyoblenergo” and PJSC “Zaporizhzhiaoblenergo,” and also carried out financial transactions aimed at legitimizing these funds.
The total damage to the energy supply companies in this case amounts to over 1.5 billion UAH, of which more than 315 million UAH has been reimbursed during the pre-trial investigation.
