Thus, five deputies of “Batkivshchyna” registered in the Verkhovna Rada a draft resolution on the creation of a Temporary Investigative Commission “to investigate the circumstances of the activities of the enterprises of the Alfa Group consortium contrary to the interests of Ukraine.”
The initiators were MPs Mikhail Apostol, Igor Brichenko, Vadim Merikov, Valery Golovko, and Lesya Orobets. They want to investigate possible connections between Alfa Group companies and the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB).
Referring to media reports, the authors of the bill claim that Alfa Bank OJSC is organizing the bankruptcy of Europe's largest aerated concrete plant, Construction Materials Plant No. 1 LLC (Novaya Kakhovka). The authors of the bill claim that this is being done in the interests of the companies of the Speaker of the Crimean Parliament Vladimir Konstantinov, to whom the Russian leadership of Alfa Bank intends to sell equipment for the production of aerated concrete.
The text of the bill quotes an article by the founder of the plant, Ivan Vinnik, published at the beginning of April 2014 in the newspaper of the Novokakhovsky City Council “Novaya Kakhovka”. The article was reprinted by a number of Ukrainian media, and in the photograph of the newspaper spread on which the article was posted, the mark “for advertising rights” is clearly visible.
Let us note that Alfa Bank itself explains that they are taking away the plant’s property for debts, since its owners, having previously taken out loans, were unable to ensure their payment.
