Deripaska’s business helped build missiles in Russia – State Bureau of Investigation

The State Bureau of Investigation of Ukraine established that a Ukrainian enterprise owned by Russian businessman Oleg Deripaska supplied parts for rocket science to the Russian Federation. The press service of the State Bureau of Investigation announced this on Friday, February 17, on its Telegram channel.

According to the investigation, Glukhovsky quarry quartzites illegally supplied the Russian military industry with materials.

State Bureau of Investigation investigators established that a quarry owned by an offshore company of a Russian oligarch conducted illegal mining of high-purity quartzite, silicon and other minerals in the Bannitsky deposit in the Sumy region.

The products were illegally exported to Russia. According to operational information, the silicon could be used by the aggressor country in the production of missiles, which were then used to strike Ukrainian cities.

Based on the materials collected by the bureau, in April 2022, the court arrested the corporate rights of Deripaska’s company, land plots of deposits, other property (tractors, cars) and transferred them to the Agency for Tracing and Asset Management.
