Former deputy head of the TCC in Odesa bought a car and a house for money he could not afford

The prosecutor of the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office has filed a lawsuit with the High Anti-Corruption Court to declare the assets of the former deputy head of the regional territorial center for manning and social support unjustified.

According to the Center for Public Investigations, the SAPO press service reported that the assets in question are those of the former deputy head of the Kyiv Territorial Center for Manning and Social Support.

According to prosecutors, the military officer acquired unjustified assets during 2022. These are:

• an apartment in a residential complex in Odesa;
• a Honda HR-V car.

The total value of the assets is about UAH 2.9 million. After analyzing the property status of the Deputy Head of the RTCC and the JV and his family member, the State Bureau of Investigation detectives found that it was impossible to acquire this property at the expense of legitimate income and reported this to prosecutors.

In view of the above, the prosecutor of the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office filed a lawsuit to recognize the assets as unjustified and recover them as state revenue.

Earlier, the Appeals Chamber of the High Anti-Corruption Court upheld the decision of the first instance court that declared the assets of a married couple of Odesa customs officers and their son, an official of a district council in Kyiv region, unjustified and seized them for the state.

After monitoring of the lifestyles of the above-mentioned subjects began, they immediately sold this movable and immovable property. The analysis of the family's legal income and savings shows that the officials and their close relatives could not have purchased the assets at the expense of their legal income.

In March 2025, the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office filed two lawsuits seeking to declare assets worth more than UAH 8.5 million belonging to customs officials and the deputy head of the district council as unjustified. The prosecutors insisted on recovering the funds to the state (civil forfeiture) from the head of the department and the chief state inspector of Odesa Customs, as well as their son, the deputy head of a district council in Kyiv region.
