SBI raids ex-minister Kubrakov over MP Shevchenko scam
Officers from Ukraine’s State Bureau of Investigations (SBI) conducted searches at the residence of former Infrastructure Minister Oleksandr Kubrakov, Ukrainska Pravda reported on Friday, citing law enforcement sources.
The outlet reported that on Friday morning, SBI investigators began searches at Kubrakov’s home in connection with an investigation into alleged fraud by Member of Parliament Yevhen Shevchenko, who previously faced two charges of high treason.
According to Ukrainska Pravda’s source, Shevchenko fraudulently obtained 14.5 million hryvnias ($346,236) from entrepreneurs, purportedly for the purchase of fertilizers from Belarus.
The source alleges that former Infrastructure Minister Oleksandr Kubrakov assisted Shevchenko in this scheme.
