The Kyiv Pechersk Court questioned the seizure of property of companies related to the Cyprus firm. The reason was the lack of communication with the suspected online PIN-UP.
This is evidenced by criminal proceedings under No. 62024000000000286.
The court granted the petition of a lawyer who represented the interests of LLC “Garant Real Estate”, LLC “Restaurant of the merchant court” and LLC “Restaurant Monaco”. Their property was canceled.
On April 16, 2025, the Pechersk District Court seized the property of the PIN-UP-Up-Up. It was a significant asset related to three Ukrainian companies, founded by the Cyprus Firm Podilhotl Management Ltd. In particular, the arrest covered:
- 75% of the authorized capital of LLC “Garant Real Estate” (EDRPOU 32850722) and a hotel complex with office and commercial premises of 2965.5 m² on the street. Konstantinovskaya, 7 in Kiev.
- 75% of the authorized capital of LLC “Restaurant Kupetskyi” (EDRPOU 43585317) and a complex of cafe buildings with a summer platform of 536.5 m² on the capital highway, 26 km in Kiev.
- 50% of the authorized capital of Monaco LLC (EDRPOU 43987824) and non -residential premises with a total area of 2318.8 m² (including a group of premises №105 with an area of 722.1 m² and other premises) on the street. Big Zhytomyr, 20 in Kiev.
The arrested property was transferred to the ARMA Office, and arrest was justified by suspicions that the property was related to persons who committed assistance to the aggressor state and laundered funds and other crimes.
The lawyer who represented the interests of the companies said in the request that the arrest had been imposed unjustified because the property was not suspected of criminal proceedings.
The trial confirmed that the ultimate beneficial owner of the Cypriot company “Podilhotelle Management” is a citizen of the Republic of Cyprus, not the persons referred to as suspected Punin and Zotko. This is confirmed by the data of the Unified State Register of Ukraine and the Register of Companies of the Republic of Cyprus, which indicate that the suspects were never owners or shareholders of a Cyprus company.
The investigating judge found that the seizure of property did not meet the requirements of Art. 170 of the CP, and the evidence that the property is an instrument of the crime, has retained the traces of the offense or was acquired by a crime. The lack of communication between property and suspects, as well as taking into account the property rights enshrined in Art. 41 of the Constitution of Ukraine and Art. 1 of the first protocol to the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights, were the basis for the abolition of arrest.
Thus, the court questioned the arrest of all these assets, and stopped their transfer to ARMA management. This decision is final and is not subject to appeal.
Garant Real Estate LLC, Restaurant Kupetskyi Yard and Restaurant Monaco LLC returned the right to freely dispose of their property, including the hotel complex, restaurant premises and corporate rights.
