Chernyshov’s wife filed lawsuit on division of property
The wife of former Deputy Prime Minister Oleksiy Chernyshov, who is suspected of corruption and money laundering, has filed a lawsuit in court to divide the couple's property. The lawsuit was registered on October 21, when Chernyshov was already involved in two corruption scandals, Interfax-Ukraine reported.
On October 21, Svitlana Chernyshova filed a lawsuit with the Pechersky District Court of Kyiv regarding the division of marital property. The defendant in this case is Oleksiy Chernyshov.
The court has now been appointed in the case. It is noted that Chernyshova filed the lawsuit before the NABU and SAPO opened a new case on the alleged legalization of property with the participation of Oleksiy Chernyshova. This happened on October 23 after the publication of an investigation by Bihus.Info journalists about the construction of a cottage town near Kyiv by a company associated with Chernyshova. However, Chernyshova himself was not suspected in this case.
Oleksiy Chernyshov is a suspect in the EBK database.
Earlier, NABU and SAPO reported on suspicion of Chernyshov in receiving illegal benefits and abuse of office. After that, Bihus.info journalists established that Chernyshov and his wife are involved in the construction of a cottage town in Kozyn, Kyiv region. Based on these facts, NABU detectives launched an investigation into the alleged legalization of funds obtained by criminal means.
Also, a bail of 51 million hryvnias was paid for former Minister of National Unity Oleksiy Chernyshov . He is due to be released from pre-trial detention. Investigative journalists from "Schemes" (a Radio Liberty project) learned who paid this money.
