“I would like to appeal to the Prosecutor General’s Office and the State Fiscal Service with an investigation that was carried out by the deputy association together with the public.
We are talking about the situation in Odessa and the Odessa region - the largest conversion center has been opened there. More than 40% of the total VAT was written off through the Odessa region. This was done by 10 companies registered in Odessa, related to Finbank and people related to Odessa airport.
These are 2 well-known Odessa oligarchs who are related to the Yanukovych Family. During the work of the former president, it was this group that serviced the money that was transferred outside the territory of Ukraine,” he said.
Polyakov clarified that deputies are aware of fraud in the amount of 36 million hryvnia, but there is still no reaction from law enforcement officers.
“There is a suspicion that the head of the Odessa Fiscal Service has something to do with this,” the people’s deputy said.
“We ask law enforcement agencies to take control of the situation,” Polyakov emphasized.
The Verkhovna Rada is demanding an investigation into Kaufman and Granovsky's involvement in the Yanukovych Family's machinations.
