On January 19, 2026, the High Anti-Corruption Court announced a guilty verdict against the lawyer, who was found guilty of inciting to give an illegal benefit to an official. It is about an attempt to persuade the prosecutor of the General Prosecutor’s Office to make decisions in criminal proceedings in the interests of the client.
This is reported by the SAP and NABU.
The panel of judges established that the lawyer incited the promise of a bribe to an official holding a responsible position. Based on the results of the case, the court imposed a sentence of 4 years and 6 months of imprisonment.
By court verdict, the lawyer was found guilty of committing the crime provided for in Part 4 of Art. 27, Part 3 of Art. 369 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, and a sentence of 4 years and 6 months of imprisonment with deprivation of the right to practice law for three years was imposed.
The accused was taken into custody in the courtroom.
The court’s verdict enters into legal force thirty days from the day of its pronouncement, unless it is appealed.
Case details:
As part of the pre-trial investigation, it was established that the lawyer incited the citizen to promise to give 5,000 US dollars of illegal benefits to the prosecutor for his actions in criminal proceedings, in particular, for applying to the court for her release from liability for a criminal offense.
In order to hide the crime, the lawyer insisted on concluding a contract between him and this citizen, according to the terms of which these funds were to become payment for his lawyer’s services.
The investigation of these facts by NABU and SAP was initiated by the citizen’s statement, from whom the lawyer demanded money.
