Ex State Border Service head Deineko posts UAH 10 mln bail - HACC
The former head of the State Border Service of Ukraine, suspected of involvement in smuggling, has been placed on bail of UAH 10 million, determined by the court as a preventive measure, the High Anti-Corruption Court (HACC) told Interfax-Ukraine.
"A bail of UAH 10 million, determined by the court, has been placed on bail of the suspect," the HACC said on Wednesday.
Earlier, the HACC applied a preventive measure in the form of a UAH 10 million bail to the former head of the State Border Service of Ukraine and UAH 2 million to the former head of the border checkpoint department - the defendants were exposed for systematically receiving bribes for facilitating the unhindered crossing of the state border. These are the former head of the State Border Service Serhiy Deineko and the former head of the Solomonovo border service department Oleksandr Marushchak.
The court partially satisfied the petition and applied a preventive measure in the form of a bail of UAH 10 million to the former head of the State Border Service, and UAH 2 million to the former head of the State Border Service checkpoint department.
The term of the obligations is until March 30, 2026.
On January 22, the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAP) and the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) exposed top officials of the State Border Service of Ukraine in systematic bribery.
