Advertising:
Actually, we do not see the connection of these peoplewhich were filmed during meetings with Sinyuk, to the activities of this criminal organization.
They are related to completely different people, maybe related to other criminal proceedings, so we are looking into it.
With regard to leaks of information specifically in the Midas operation, there are two criminal proceedings related to a possible leak from both the SAP and NABU.”
Details: According to Klymenko, Sinyuk resigned from SAP of his own free will, explaining his motives by the fact that he does not want any manipulations, that he can influence the course of the official investigation.
The head of the SAP clarified that Sinyuk was dismissed not only from the SAP, but from the prosecutor’s office in general, at his own request.
Regarding the investigations into the leaks, Klymenko said that the agencies are establishing whether there was a leak about the departure of certain people or whether it was a coincidence: “Since some of the people involved entered Ukraine on Sunday (the day before the NABU searches), crossing the border, and one person (Mindich) left. We understand that there were meetings where he said that he would not be there on Monday. Therefore, we need to establish whether the person was warned about searches”.
