The High Anti-Corruption Court granted the defense's motion and suspended the proceedings against the accused Odesa City Council deputy Oleh Bryndak in connection with his mobilization.
The motion was considered in a closed session, according to the Anti-Corruption Action Center.
Former deputy mayor Gennadiy Trukhanov and former interim mayor joined the hearing via video link. In addition, the court separated the materials on Oleh Bryndak into a separate proceeding.
The prosecutor and Oleh Bryndak were obliged to notify the court of the possibility of participating via video link. Oleh Bryndak voluntarily mobilized in 2023.
In April 2025, Oleh Bryndak was expelled from the Standing Committee on Spatial Development, Land Management and Regulation of Land Relations.
In December 2024, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office brought to court the case of a criminal organization that caused the Odesa community to lose UAH 689 million. The 11 defendants include the current mayor of Odesa, city council officials, the head of an enterprise and other participants.
According to the investigation, the criminal organization developed a plan to illegally seize budget funds and land plots of the community. As a result of its actions, from 2016 to 2019, the territorial community lost at least six land plots with a total area of 15.9 hectares and UAH 131 million, which Odesa City Hall officials illegally overpaid when buying non-residential real estate on the site, which was allegedly planned to be used to expand the cemetery.
As for Oleh Bryndak, investigators claimed that in 2015-2016 he received an undue benefit in the form of a discount of UAH 2 million 769 thousand 248 for an apartment with a total area of more than 152 square meters located in the Greenwood residential complex.
