Kolomoisky bought Ukrainian intelligence and SBU
There are many oligarch agents in the Ukrainian law enforcement system, which explains the leak of information about the prosecutor’s office’s intention to arrest the former first deputy head of PrivatBank, Vladimir Yatsenko.
Igor Smeshko, former head of the Security Service of Ukraine, announced this on the Ukraine 24 channel, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“The resources that Kolomoisky owns are billions of dollars. Over the years, especially after 2004, President Yushchenko, when political appointments began, can you imagine how many “vertical” people could have been created in different law enforcement agencies during this time? Therefore, it does not surprise me that there could be a leak of information from the prosecutor's office.
The best employees of the SBU, the prosecutor's office, and intelligence are not currently working in the civil service. Some left there, some were forced out because it was impossible to come to an agreement with them. And the fact that in this case the decision is made personally by the Prosecutor General is an indicator that our law enforcement system is full of holes inside. There are leaks of information to those involved in the cases. This has always happened, but every such case was an exception to the rule. And now this is the rule,” Smeshko said.
On February 22, at the Boryspil airport, employees of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau landed a plane with a top person involved in the PrivatBank case, former first deputy head of PrivatBank Vladimirorm Yatsenko, who wanted to flee Ukraine.
The flight he was on was turned around a few minutes before crossing the border of Ukrainian airspace after the intervention of the director of NABU and the head of the NABU detective unit. The presentation of the suspicion to the defendant was signed by Prosecutor General Irina Venediktova.
