The Supreme Anti-Corruption Court partially satisfied the complaint of former Minister of Energy and Justice Herman Galushchenko about his alleged illegal detention, but left him in custody.

This is reported by Suspilne from the courtroom.

The day before, law enforcement officers detained Halushchenko while attempting to cross the state border. Today, February 16, NABU detectives and SAPO prosecutors declared him a suspect.

The investigation believes that the former employee is involved in Operation Midas, which involves the embezzlement of Energoatom funds. He is currently in custody and is awaiting the selection of a preventive measure.

It should be noted that tomorrow, February 17, the Supreme Court of Criminal Appeals will choose a preventive measure for the suspect, in which the prosecution will request detention.

It was previously reported that on the night of February 15, NABU and SAPO detained former Energy Minister Herman Galushchenko while attempting to cross the border.

As a reminder, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau confirmed the detention of former Energy Minister Herman Galushchenko while attempting to travel abroad.
