In 2014, a pensioner son disappeared from the declaration of the head of the Odesa regional TEC

The son of the head of the Odesa Regional Territorial Center for Manning and Social Support, Yuriy Puiko, received a pension in 2022, but his son is not listed in the declaration for 2023.

This was reported by the Center for Public Investigations.

On August 23, after an interview with Yuriy Puiko, photos were posted on social media of his vacation in Turkey in 2023. After the photos began to circulate, Yaroslav Puiko closed his profile for viewing, and the media explained that the guy was receiving a pension and was disabled.

Indeed, in Yurii Puiko's declaration for 2022, in addition to his wife's salary and his own, he declared a pension in the amount of UAH 17,600, which Yaroslav Puiko received, and income from the alienation of movable property in the amount of UAH 149.1 thousand, which he received when he sold his car.

The declaration for 2023 lists only UAH 284,995 of his wife's salary, UAH 726,500 of his own salary, and payments to him as a combatant totaling UAH 8,917.

The declaration for 2023, which was published by the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption in early 2024, lists only his wife Natalia. In 2023, she started using a 40-square-meter apartment in Chernivtsi owned by Svitlana Puiko, and in 2022 she became the owner of a 59-square-meter apartment in the same city. She also owns a 24-square-meter garage in Chernivtsi.

Yuriy Puiko himself rents 17 square meters in a dormitory in Khmelnytskyi and owns a 2-hectare plot of land in the village of Lenkivtsi, Chernivtsi region. He also owns a 2020 Skoda Superb.

Yuriy Puiko keeps 12 thousand hryvnias in cash, which was not in his 2022 declaration.

CPR contacted the TCC press service to comment on the information about Puiko's son, but they did not respond to the publication.
