The defense side of businessman Ihor Kolomoyskyi got acquainted with 225 of the 550 volumes of criminal proceedings of the Criminal Investigation Department. This was reported to the Bureau of Economic Security on Sunday, reports UNN.

In August of last year, BEB detectives separated the materials of the pre-trial investigation of the well-known oligarch into a separate criminal proceeding, where it was reported that the investigation was completed under 4 articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine: ch. 3 Art. 27, ch. 3 Art. 28, ch. 2 Art. 366 (Official forgery), ch. 3 Art. 27 hours 3 Art. 28 hours 2 Art. 200 (Illegal actions with transfer documents, payment cards and other means of access to bank accounts, electronic money), ch. 3 Art. 27 hours 3 Art. 209 (Legalization (laundering) of property obtained through criminal means), ch. 3 Art. 27 hours 5th century 191 (Empropriation, embezzlement of property or possession of it by abuse of official position).

At the same time, the investigation of other members of the group organized and managed by the oligarch continues.

Also, the investigation of 2 ferroalloy factories affiliated to well-known Ukrainian oligarchs is under investigation by the detectives of the Security Service of Ukraine. Currently, ARMA has begun an inspection of the property of the Nikopol ferroalloy plant, which belongs to Kolomoisky, transferred to its management. The property of the enterprise was transferred to the agency for search and asset management in accordance with the decision of the investigating judge of the Shevchenkiv District Court of the city of Kyiv.

The pre-trial investigation established that in 2014, officials of PJSC KB “Privatbank” took possession of the funds of the National Bank of Ukraine, allocated for the refinancing of the bank, in the amount of more than 19 billion hryvnias. The basis for such actions became dubious credit agreements, which were secured by property rights to goods and assets, including the Nikopol ferroalloy plant.

The BEB detectives also established that the enterprises exported ferroalloy products to Austria, Cyprus and a number of other European countries for a long period of time. During the sale of raw materials to foreign buyers, factory officials deliberately understated their value. This allowed them to avoid paying taxes in particularly large amounts.

A pre-trial investigation is ongoing.
