HACC Extends Obligations for Ex-Khmelnytskyi MSEC Head

The HIgh Anti-Corruption Court extended until December 29 the term of the duties assigned to the former head of the Khmelnytskyi MSEC, deputy of the Khmelnytskyi Regional Council Tetyana Krupa in the framework of the case of illicit enrichment.

According to media reports, this is Krupa, for whom a 20 million UAH bail was recently paid and she was released from custody. She was also given the following obligations: not to leave the borders of Khmelnytskyi and Ternopil regions without the permission of the investigator, prosecutor or court; to notify the investigator, prosecutor or court of a change of residence; to hand over her foreign passports for safekeeping. The prosecutor of the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office requested that these obligations be extended.

On October 29, the investigating judge of the HACC extended the term of the following obligations to the former head of the Khmelnytskyi Regional Criminal Investigation Department: not to leave the borders of the Khmelnytskyi and Ternopil regions without the permission of the investigator, prosecutor or court; to notify the investigator, prosecutor or court of a change of place of residence; to submit to the authorized body her passport for travel abroad, other documents giving the right to leave Ukraine and enter Ukraine, except for the passport of a citizen of Ukraine

As a reminder, the State Bureau of Investigation and the Prosecutor General's Office exposed Krupa in illegal enrichment. During the searches, $6 million in cash, jewelry, and branded items were found in her possession. The head of the Khmelnytskyi MSEC tried to get rid of some of the money by throwing two bags with half a million dollars out the window.

As part of the pre-trial investigation, it was established that during 2020-2024, with the assistance of her husband and son, the head of the MSEC illegally enriched herself by UAH 160 million. Part of the illegally obtained funds was legalized through the fictitious sale of real estate. After that, with the assistance of her husband, the funds were taken abroad and placed in bank accounts.

Tetyana Krupa and her son Oleksandr are suspects in the EBK base.

We also previously reported that the HACC extended until October 5 the pre-trial investigation into the case of suspicion of the head of the Khmelnytskyi MSEC, deputy of the Khmelnytskyi Regional Council, Tetyana Krupa, in illegal enrichment.
