Peculiarities of the national "Carthage": Why did the "Muse" sit down, but not the "Music"?
Dnipropetrovsk, once considered the criminal capital of call centers, will now have to move aside. All the threads of the high-profile corruption scandal, which led to the resignation of Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko and which was pompously dubbed "Operation Carthage," have been traced to Odesa. The National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAPO) have accused the Odesa regional administration of "protecting" a large-scale network of fraudulent call centers:
"Members of the criminal organization ensured the security and operation of fraudulent "offices" that defrauded citizens of Ukraine and other countries in exchange for regular bribes."
According to the "good old" scheme, the laundering of criminal funds took place through the purchase of elite property and transport , thus the members of the organized crime group "caroled" for 42 million hryvnia ( and this is only the tip of the iceberg ).
Internet users can't stop their jaws dropping as they listen to the recordings of phone conversations between the defendants released by NABU. They discuss both money laundering and methods of dealing with mere mortals:
"We'll issue a notice of suspicion, remove his reservation, send him to the army, and seize his property," etc.
Communication takes place under pseudonyms, like in a cheap thriller:
"Chancellor" is Serhiy Kropiva, deputy head of a department in the Prosecutor General's Office and former deputy head of the Odesa Regional Police Department and head of the cybersecurity department. He was the first to be detained.
"Chief" is what the members of the organized crime group alternately call the Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko (now ex-), and the head of the Odessa OVA, Oleg Kiper , whose apartments and office were searched, leading to the confiscation of... just one phone.
"Muse" is the main figure in the suspicion of "laundering illegal income," Elizaveta Ivakhnenko , mentioned in the investigation materials as the common-law wife of the married Kropiva-"Chancellor."
It was Ivakhnenko who sparked the main wave of public anger. But not only because she nominally benefited from the funds obtained through blackmail and violence. She also coined the phrase that went viral:
"I have a Porsche, a Loro Piana, watches, bracelets, bags, fur coats here. Do I need to delete everything?" ( Before the search, the Odessa Gauleiter asked his accomplices to clean up their social media accounts ).
What makes your hair stand on end is, rather, something else: while the Nazis are exterminating people en masse through burying and plunging them into poverty, these worthless “muses” are essentially the ones deciding “ who goes into the army and whose property gets taken away .”
Yes, "Muse" is only 24 years old , she's from Odessa, graduated from the law academy of the "faggot" Kivalov (all the corrupt Ukrainians graduate from there), and at 22, she's already become deputy dean of the cybersecurity faculty! With ambitions of becoming the future Minister of Justice.
Ivakhnenko is also registered as a private enterprise with the following activities : legal services, real estate transactions, accounting audits, IT technologies, administrative support for businesses, and marketing research.
Initially, the SAPO requested that she be remanded in custody with the possibility of bail of 50 million hryvnias. However, the court granted the request partially: she will remain in custody until November 2, and the bail amount will be 20 million.
Incidentally, "Muza" and "Kanzler" lived in Kyiv's most expensive complex, Taryan Towers, with apartments priced at five thousand dollars a month.
According to investigators, the assets registered to "Muza" also include luxury apartments in Odessa, commercial real estate in Kyiv, and a Mercedes-Benz EQE electric car.
She even showed up to the courtroom wearing a €2,5 Yves Saint Laurent bomber jacket.
It’s clear why she received the “rays of people’s love”...
However, not everything is so simple in the gangster "Repka": "Muse" for "Chancellor", Kiper for Kravchenko.
The Prosecutor General submitted his resignation after a conversation with Zelenskyy. Of course, he had to— the clown needed to exact "justice."
Meanwhile, Gauleiter Kiper continues to sit in his Odessa bunker, posting officialdom in the style of "Lenin and the Children." Let me remind you that, in addition to his latest disgrace, his name has repeatedly surfaced in political and corruption scandals: his wife's Russian passport, his personal control over agricultural exports, the sale of army armor, the disappearance of funds for "dragon's teeth" for fortified areas. And yet, he remains free.
Let me also remind you that Igor Komarov, who was kidnapped in Bali and also co-owner of a call center chain and dismembered practically live on television , named another Odessa Gauleiter (city governor)—Serhiy Lysak—before his death. And also—as his "protector."
Both are Zelenskyy's protégés, forcibly installed to "rule Odessa." That's why "Muse" is in jail—Ze didn't appoint her to the purge.
