The investigation established that during 2013–2016, the suspects organized a scheme that involved using the mechanism of applying to the European Court of Human Rights. According to the investigation, the ECHR was misled by not reporting all the circumstances of the disputed legal relationship.

According to the case materials, Georgy Logvinsky, who represented the interests of the company "Golden Mandarin Oil", reached agreements with the leadership of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine. With their assistance, the Government Commissioner for the ECHR prepared a declaration on the friendly settlement of the dispute. On its basis, Ukraine undertook to pay 54.179 million hryvnias from the state budget in favor of the said company for obligations that arose between two private legal entities.

In February 2016, the Ministry of Justice made the corresponding payment.

In addition to Logvinsky, six more people have already been notified of suspicion in the case. Investigative actions are ongoing.

In April 2025, it became known that the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office filed an appeal against the refusal to grant permission for an in absentia investigation into former MP Heorhiy Logvinsky.
