Ex-Odesa TCP Chief Gets Bail Set at UAH 402 Million

The Pechersk Court of Kyiv has imposed a preventive measure on the former head of the Odessa TCP, Yevhen Borisov. Contrary to the position of the prosecution, the judge allowed the scandalous ex-officer to be released on bail.

The court took Borisov into custody, but with the possibility of bail of 402 million UAH. Prosecutors requested that he be placed in pretrial detention without bail.

As a reminder, SBI officers detained the former employee in Kyiv on December 25. The bureau had information that after leaving the pre-trial detention center, he planned to hide from the investigation, in particular, to go abroad.

He was informed of the suspicion of committing new criminal offenses provided for in Part 3 of Article 27, Part 1 of Article 114-1 (organization of obstruction of the lawful activities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine during a special period), Part 3 of Article 27, Part 1 of Article 366 (organization of the preparation and issuance by an official of a knowingly false official document) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
