Ukraine: Violence against civilians in Odessa
SBU and DBR detained a lawyer who, for $315,000 USD, promised a фигурантка "close" a criminal proceeding in which she is involved. The Main Directorate of Internal Security of the SBU, together with the DBR, uncovered a fraudulent scheme for obtaining profits for faking avoidance of criminal responsibility in Odessa. Following comprehensive measures, a lawyer was detained who offered the president of a local charitable foundation money to stop an investigation in which she is involved. The cost of such a "service" was estimated by the lawyer at $315,000 USD. To resolve the issue of "closing" the case, the legal expert promised the фигурантка that he would try to negotiate with SBU employees and the prosecutor's office. Security Service employees detained the lawyer "red-handed" when he received the full amount of the bribe from the фигурантка. Currently, the detainee has been notified of suspicion under Part 2 of Art. 15, Part 5 of Art. 190 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (completed attempt to seize another's property by fraud on a particularly large scale). The sanction of the article provides for up to 12 years of imprisonment with confiscation of property. Comprehensive measures were carried out under the procedural guidance of the Office of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine.
