Corruption
Justice in the lap of oligarchs, corruption and power. Report corruption in the courts
The judiciary has long been no longer independent. Every month, new revelations emerge that demonstrate not only the wealth and fortunes of the judiciary acquired during the war, but also their obvious favoritism toward privileged castes. The latter include businessmen, politicians and oligarchs.
A simple example that demonstrates the latter point in practice is the amount of bail set in case of corruption crimes committed by officials. Often, it is ten times less than the actual unlawful benefit or reward for the implementation of the schemes. So whose side are the courts on? And do they really want justice to prevail in the country?
Today, we will tell you the story of one of the key courts in Kyiv and how its representatives sold out to oligarchic clans.
Shevchenkivskyi District Court of Kyiv
For a long time, the NGO “Non-Stop” has been investigating the corrupt activities of current officials, government officials, business structures and oligarchs. We not only actively cover all the information we receive in the media, but also process it legally. That is why we always send materials to law enforcement and regulatory authorities with demands to start active research and study of the issues. As expected, law enforcement agencies often ignore the materials, so to force them to take action, we appeal to investigating judges with complaints about the former’s inaction.
And while most judges take the side of citizens, justice and the rule of law, judges of the Shevchenkivskyi District Court of Kyiv, who have the right to oblige the SBI, the BES, and the Kyiv Oblast Police to launch an investigation, on the contrary, protect the interests of traitors, oligarchs and corrupt officials.
Therefore, we appealed to the Shevchenkivskyi District Court on a number of cases:
- Regarding the operation of educational institutions and kindergartens in frontline Kharkiv, without a license, in the absence of a shelter and with gross violations of safety regulations. These institutions include: KhANI ACADEMY of Kharkiv region; Gravitation School; Marmelandia School of Kharkiv region; NUA School of Kharkiv region; COMPUTER ACADEMY SHAG Kharkiv; Marmelandia Kindergarten; Happy Baby Kindergarten; Little Prince Children’s Center; Honey Academy Nursery and Kindergarten; Tiny Steps Kindergarten; Mr. Shtanishkin Kindergarten; MIRAland Children’s Studio; Vseznaika Children’s Studio; APELSYN Children’s Center; KIDSDREAM Kindergarten and others.
In the complaint, we asked the BES to oblige the BES to enter information about the crime into the URPI and to initiate a pre-trial investigation, in response to which investigating judge Bugil V. V. refused to do so (case No. 761/25943/24 of 31.07.2024).
- With regard to the withdrawal of funds received on credit by the family of businessmen and owners of the “KOMPLEX AGROMARS” Segal, through the purchase of real estate and goods in circulation, concluding fictitious contracts with controlled companies (LLC “BUILDING DEVELOPMENT KYIV”, LLC “CHIKEN FAST”, LLC “GTM PLUS”, LLC “Grandison”, LLC “FAST AGRO INVEST”). In addition, while the funds received from the banks were being withdrawn through the combinations to shadow accounts of third parties, Segal initiated criminal proceedings against the investor financial companies. This already indicates the fraudulent and criminal nature of the businessman’s actions.
Investigating judge Bugil V.V. rejected the complaint again, and therefore the case will not be investigated by the Kyiv Region Main Department of the National Police (case No. 761/27634/24).
- Regarding the misappropriation of budget funds in particularly large amounts under the prism of the implementation of the state program “Big Construction” by the ideologist Yuriy Holyk and the controlled LLC “BUDINVEST ENGINEERING”, LLC “BIG CITY GROUP”, LLC “SK ‘STROYINVEST’, LLC ‘EDBK’, LLC ‘AUTOMAGISTRAIL 2016’.
Again, the case was considered by investigating judge Bugil V.V. and again the case was dismissed in favor of BES (case No. 761/27755/24).
- Concerning a number of crimes committed by the former Deputy Head of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Kyrylo Tymoshenko. The latter managed not only to make some money on the Big Construction, but also to continue implementing the schemes, but with reconstruction and fortification. In particular, on his initiative, “dragon’s teeth” were installed right on the beach of Chornomorsk, where the water was already shallow.
And again, Bugil V.V. and the refusal to oblige the SBI to launch an investigation (case No. 761/27769/24).
- Regarding the activities of agricultural structures controlled by the state traitor Oleh Tsariov (Agroinvest Company LLC, Aidar Group LLC, CONSULT-PRO LLC), which, with the assistance of local law enforcement officers, put pressure on competitors, threaten to search and try to illegally seize property from representatives of the agricultural sector.
But investigating judge Bugil V.V. is completely indifferent to the above, so the answer to our complaint is obvious (case No. 761/28390/24).
But investigating judge Tetyana Ovsepyan and the BES do not care about this. So, again, we were denied (case No. 761/29515/24).
One of the reasons for the dismissal of our complaints is the following wording:
“The investigating judge concluded that this application does not contain specific circumstances that may indicate that individuals have committed the criminal offenses referred to in the application, and therefore, in the opinion of the investigating judge, taking into account all the circumstances, there are no legal grounds for satisfying this complaint.”
At the same time, according to Ukrainian law, the applicant provides sufficient information about the commission of crimes in the full scope and in the manner available to non-investigators. Additional information and evidence can and should be collected only in the manner and by authorized persons provided for by the CPC of Ukraine. In addition, the information and elements of the crime specified in the statement can and should be refuted only by the investigator during the pre-trial investigation after the information is entered into the URPTI. The application cannot be given a legal assessment outside of criminal proceedings, as the information in the application is collected and analyzed by professional lawyers with experience in criminal proceedings.
The second reason is
“Failure to provide confirmation of the fact that the authorized persons of the supervisory or law enforcement agency received the application that was sent by e-mail.”
In addition, one of the complaints related to such inaction of the BES detectives and their ignoring of Tsarev’s crimes. The complaint was left without satisfaction, because, as the document itself said: “from the letter of the Senior Detective of the Main Detective Unit of the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine G. Dyachuk, it is clear that Kyrylo Yakovets has not been involved in the complaints filed on his behalf since 01.06.2024.”
Detective Dyachuk referred to the text of a copy of a letter, allegedly from the head of the NGO “Non-Stop”, in which the latter stated: “…. The treatment led to the suspension of my activities as the head of the NGO “Non-Stop” and since June 2024 I have not been conducting any investigations.
At the same time, I learned that law enforcement officers, covering up for their corrupt patrons, used the Diia app to access my electronic signature and email gononstopkyiv@gmail.com to stop my publications.
Moreover, unknown persons using my electronic signature and email address continue to send out incomprehensible statements and messages, allegedly on behalf of the NGO “Non-Stop”, to which neither I nor my public association has any relation. I am currently trying to regain access to my e-mail and signature, and am preparing a statement about the crime.”
Investigating judge Bugil V.V. had reasonable doubts about the filing of this complaint by K.I. Yakovets, and therefore did not satisfy the complaint.
Detective BAB Dyachuk did not verify the veracity of the letter by communicating directly with Yakovets, without monitoring the social networks of Non-Stop, links to which we always leave at the end of our statements.
So why did neither the BES detective nor the investigating judge investigate the veracity of the letter? Why was no one embarrassed by the absence of a CEP?
In addition, there are reasonable grounds to believe that during the distribution of the complaint regarding the failure of authorized persons of law enforcement and regulatory authorities to enter information into the URPTI, there was also repeated illegal interference with the automated system of distribution of documents of the Shevchenkivskyi District Court of Kyiv in order to cover up these crimes. Therefore, all complaints about the failure to enter information into the URPTI on the above applications are received by Bugil V.V. and Ovsepyan T.V.
Of course, we filed appeals in each of these cases. In addition, we filed a separate complaint with the High Council of Justice to check these judges, their objectivity and the reasons for making identical decisions, as well as to determine possible interference with the document distribution system.
We continue to work on this.
We call on you to report facts of abuse, corruption, and cover-ups by representatives of the judiciary that you know about, including judges of the Shevchenkivskyi District Court of Kyiv.
Did you witness a crime?
Let us know about it. We will help protect the violated rights!
