We are talking about several thousand square meters of abandoned buildings of a former pioneer camp on the outskirts of Kyiv on an area of 10 hectares, said Alexander Sokolovsky.
Owner of a commercial and industrial group of companies Textile-Contact (TK-Group) Alexander Sokolovsky considers the actions of the prosecutor of the Goloseevsky Prosecutor’s Office of Kyiv on charges of fraud on municipal property to be ordered. He wrote this on his Facebook page.
“It turns out that the story is interesting – with searches, suspicions, fictitious losses to the state for 46 million UAH and “increasing the level” of intimidation in the form of precautionary measures against my director and partner for the same amount,” he wrote.
The businessman said that the case concerns an investment project postponed until better times after the war and not related to other businesses – several thousand square meters of abandoned buildings of a former pioneer camp on the outskirts of Kyiv in an area of 10 hectares. In addition, a co-investor is found for the project, and the city pays for the use of the land.
However, according to Sokolovsky, some time ago ex-Kyiv City Council deputy Sergei Kotvitsky approached him with a proposal to take this business, build a cottage community there, and then pay in square meters.
“At first, I, of course, refused him,” assured the owner Textile-Contact.
However, Sokolovsky notes, then a criminal case was initiated by the Goloseevsky prosecutor’s office and Kotvitsky’s proposal to “solve something,” to which Sokolovsky did not respond, and a year ago they arrived to find him and six other locations.
Then, notes the businessman, the realtors put the property up for sale, and the placement of the ad, according to him, was ordered by Kotvitsky, after which the prosecutor Alexander Shapovalov “accidentally” encountered this ad and used it as the basis “for a criminal investigation,” and the former deputy again offered to “fix the issue” with the prosecutor’s office, but was again refused.
“And last week, the business director and my partner were served with suspicions on the same day and they immediately received court summons to determine a preventive measure,” said Sokolovsky.
According to him, prosecutor Shapovalov offered the court bail in the amount of UAH 23 million for each of them.
“Prosecutor Shapovalov is trying to “pull the owl around the world,” but after the check (and we have already filed a complaint with the Prosecutor General’s Office to the head of the investment protection department, Alexey Bonyuk), I hope that the criminal case is closed,” said Sokolovsky.
At the same time, according to him, his main charge is fraud on communal property, especially “in the form of obtaining a bona fide unconditional right to transfer a land plot of communal property for use or ownership -property” – the prosecutor confirms a technical error in the inventory of structures, which, By the way, it was fixed a long time ago.
All documents prove that we did not try to take possession of the land, but officially prepared and submitted documents to acquire it for rent… Well, since the normative monetary valuation of the land plot is 46.5 million UAH, the investigation into the person of the prosecutor decided Shapovalov, to let it be the bail amount,” wrote Sokolovsky.
The businessman mentioned that he is considering ordering the case because it has been handled by the prosecutor for almost a year, “despite the fact that there are 500-600 criminal cases going on, and 5-6 of them are currently underway. ”
“It is time to drive out these robbers in clothes and shoulder straps, they are making the country unsuitable for business and life,” the businessman believes.
“What do I want? Obviously, first of all, to fight, to release the “hostages” from the attack and bring them to court (if it comes) or internal investigation, that the case is made up of nothing , that during a full-scale war, dozens of people worked in vain And this is about 4 million UAH of budget money Have you thought how many drones can be bought with this money.
According to TK-Groupemploys more than 1,500 people in 12 factories. For 2023, the company paid 442 million hryvnias in taxes.
Earlier in Kyiv, raiders were detained for attempting to take over a business with assets worth more than 40 million hryvnias. The attackers offered a private notary $20,000 to illegally replace the company’s founder and director.
And in the Cherkasy region, raiders who forged documents and seized a plant worth 160 million hryvnias were exposed.
