The High Anti-Corruption Court of Ukraine (HACC) has canceled the arrest of 38 engines that will be transferred to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

"Today, March 1, 2022, with the participation of the prosecutor of the Special Anti-corruption Prosecutor's Office (SAPO), HACC's investigator judge promptly considered the petition of the director of the State Enterprise Lviv Armored Plant and a representative of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, and decided to cancel the arrest of engines, which the Armed Forces of Ukraine will receive in order to confront Russian invaders," a post on HACC's website said on Tuesday evening.

HACC recalled that these engines were arrested as part of a criminal proceeding on embezzlement of funds when purchasing engines for the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
