On October 17, the NABU and the SAPO served a notice of suspicion to a current MP from Mykolaiv in a case of illicit enrichment worth over UAH 20 million. She currently faces up to 10 years in prison. According to preliminary data, she received gifts worth more than UAH 20 million, including a valuable Swiss watch and significant cash gifts from her father, whose official income did not allow such generosity.
