According to the State Bureau of Investigation, another $ 4.5 million of dubious assets of the former People’s Deputy of Ukraine from the Party of Regions, close to the family of fugitive ex-president Viktor Yanukovych, has been seized.

The Bureau works daily to fill the state budget, primarily for the needs of the Armed Forces.

According to the Bureau, the former regional, together with the fugitive president's entourage, "laundered" and legalized abroad the proceeds from one of the powerful concerns in the temporarily occupied territory of Donetsk.

After creating the Russian terrorist organization DPR, the attacker retained de facto control over the pharmaceutical industry and cooperated with the occupation administration. He registered a company in the temporarily occupied Horlivka, the mayor of which was his former bodyguard.
