HACC Extends ex-MP Pashynskyi’s Duties image

The High Anti-Corruption Court has extended the term of office of former MP Serhiy Pashynskyi until November 10. The NABU and the SAPO suspect him of misappropriating nationalized oil products of oligarch Serhiy Kurchenko worth approximately UAH 817 million.

The High Anti-Corruption Court took former People's Deputy Serhiy Pashinsky into custody. As an alternative, he was set a bail of UAH 272.52 million. These funds were paid and the politician was released from custody. Pashinsky was also given the following obligations: to appear upon every demand; to report any change in his place of residence and place of work; not to leave the city of Kyiv and the Kyiv region without permission; to refrain from communicating with other suspects and witnesses; to hand over his foreign passports for safekeeping.

Later, Pashinsky was allowed to move freely around Ukraine and his international passports were returned. Therefore, the prosecutor of the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office requested that the remaining obligations be extended.

To extend the term of the obligations imposed on the suspect (Pashynskyi) in connection with the application of a preventive measure in the form of bail to him for the term of the resolution. The term of the resolution is two months, until November 10, 2025 inclusive, but within the term of the pre-trial investigation

– the decision states.

Let us remind you that Serhiy Pashinsky is a person involved in the EBK base.

In early September, the HACC reduced the amount of bail set as a preventive measure for Pashinsky from UAH 272.52 to UAH 192.52 million.
