The Ministry of Justice of Ukraine has filed a lawsuit with the High Anti-Corruption Court to confiscate the assets of the former director of the Kherson Regional Museum of Local Lore , Tetiana Bratchenko, who collaborated with the Russian authorities during the occupation of Kherson.
This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Justice.
The lawsuit claims the transfer of two houses, two cars and money belonging to Bratchenko to the state. The reason is her conscious support of the occupation regime, public statements in favor of Russia and participation in events to spread pro-Russian propaganda in the temporarily occupied territories.
The lawsuit was filed in accordance with paragraph 1-1 of part one of Article 4 of the Law of Ukraine "On Sanctions".
The Ministry of Justice emphasized that the state continues to systematically prosecute those who sided with the aggressor.
In 2022, the Security Service of Ukraine served a notice of suspicion to the director of the Kherson Regional Museum of Local Lore, Tetiana Bratchenko. Law enforcement officers accuse her of collaborating with the enemy.
According to the investigation, Bratchenko supported the occupation forces in the information space and organized exhibitions under the control of the invaders. The evidence includes interviews with pro-Russian media in which she spread false information about the museum's work under occupation, allegedly under pressure from the Ukrainian authorities. In particular, this refers to the events of early May, when the museum held events dedicated to May 9. Later, in June, the director publicly expressed support for the occupation of Kherson.
According to media reports, the Shevchenkivskyi District Court of Kyiv arrested Tatiana Bratchenko's house.
In February, the HACC upheld the claim of the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine against Oleksandr Kuzmenko, a collaborator who voluntarily took the position of the so-called "Minister of Culture of the Kherson region" during the occupation of the region.
