Former head of the President’s Office Andriy Yermak, who is suspected of involvement in the legalization of 460 million hryvnias during the construction of an elite cottage town, remains in pre-trial detention.

This was reported by “Ukrainska Pravda” with reference to sources in law enforcement agencies.

According to the publication’s interlocutors, several people have already paid part of the bail for the former head of the OP.

However, this amount is not yet enough for Yermak to be released.

To be released from custody, it is necessary to collect 140 million hryvnias in bail.

So, the suspect is currently still in detention.

As previously reported, the Supreme Anti-Corruption Court of Ukraine chose a preventive measure for the former head of the President’s Office, Andriy Yermak – detention with the possibility of posting bail in the amount of UAH 140 million.

As a reminder, NABU and SAPO have exposed an organized group suspected of legalizing 460 million hryvnias in an elite construction project near Kyiv. The suspicion was reported to one of the participants in the scheme, the former head of the Office of the President of Ukraine.

As reported,the corruption scandal surrounding people from President Volodymyr Zelensky’s inner circle may complicate negotiations on Ukraine’s early accession to the European Union.
