Suspicion Skorokhod
- Previously, NABU used hidden cameras to record the transfer of funds to the MP and her representative. The amount in question is $125,000.
- The footage later also shows a receipt, but it is not clear what it says. From the context, it is clear that this "document" records a specific amount and the transfer of part of the funds so that all participants in the "agreements" could "sleep peacefully."
- On December 5, the Security Service, NABU, and SAPO exposed a criminal group in Kyiv that was led by Ukrainian MP Anna Skorokhod.
- She is accused of creating a criminal group that offered a businessman $250,000 to organize the imposition of sanctions by the National Security and Defense Council on a competitor's company.
