National Anti-Corruption Bureau Director Semyon Krivonos was questioned about the summoning of National Security and Defense Council Secretary Rustem Umerov as part of the so-called “Mindich case.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He reported this in a comment to Ukrainska Pravda, emphasizing that Umerov is not a suspect.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“Umerov has indeed been questioned. I cannot disclose his status. I can only say that he is not currently a suspect or accused. I will refrain from any further comment, as it could undermine the pre-trial investigation,” Krivonos said.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to sources, the interrogation is related to a back office investigation, which investigators believe was organized by businessman Timur Mindich. NABU has not yet released any further details.<\/p>\n

It was previously reported that Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council<\/a> Rustem Umerov was questioned by the National Anti-Corruption Bureau as a witness in a criminal case involving a “back office” that, according to investigators, was organized by businessman Timur Mindich.<\/p>\n

It should be added that the head of the Presidential Office, Andriy Yermak, also appears on the “Mindich tapes,”<\/a> released by NABU as part of an investigation into corruption in the energy sector.<\/p>\n

Incidentally, Andriy Sinyuk, deputy head of the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office, resigned voluntarily<\/a> . He explained that he wanted to avoid speculation surrounding the internal investigation.<\/p>\n

It was previously reported that investigators had identified the identity of the person behind the pseudonym “Professor”<\/a> on the tapes involved in the Timur Mindich corruption case.<\/p>\n

As a reminder, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office have come close to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy<\/a> , as discussed in the article “Friend of Kolomoisky and Zelenskyy: Who is Timur Mindich?”<\/p>\n
