The High Anti-Corruption Court is hearing the case of People`s Deputy from the Servant of the People party Liudmyla Marchenko, who threw money over the fence when NABU detectives came to her house.

This is reported by the Anti-Corruption Action Center, Censor.NET informs.

In particular, the judges examined a video shot by a hidden camera in the office of the Ukrainian-Turkish Charitable Foundation in Ternopil. According to the investigation, it was through this foundation, whose founder is Deputy Marchenko, who organized the smuggling of men abroad under the guise of volunteers.

"The video shows how Kolesnik's assistant, while in the foundation's office, provides advice on the documents that must be submitted for traveling abroad. During one of the conversations, she notes that "the situation at the border has changed, so the price is 6-6.5 thousand dollars." She also adds that a person is entered into the database as a volunteer and may not return," the AntAC reports.

The prosecutor's office notes that the price of services was different for different people. It depended on whom the person applied to the fund. In particular, some people said that they were "from Liudmyla". The prosecutor is convinced that this is People's Deputy Liudmyla Marchenko.

The AntAC reminds that Marchenko previously explained that she threw the money over the fence because she was in a state of shock and did not really realize what was happening. She said she had some health problems and was taking medicine. Therefore, it could also have affected her behavior under stress.
