This happened on Sunday, January 14th. Unknown people stuck notes with insults and threats on the door. They also shouted for the journalist to “go serve.” The investigator suggests that this is related to his investigations into corruption in the Ministry of Defense. Nikolov announced this on Facebook on January 15.
According to him, he was not at home at that moment, but these people scared his old mother, who lives with him after cancer. There is no one else to look after her, because her second son is in Avdeevka, and her adult grandson is in the Kupyansky direction.
I don’t even know what kind of degenerate came up with such an idea to intimidate a journalist. A year ago, Reznikov asked the SBU to open a case on undermining defense capabilities based on my article on corruption in military procurement. But in all interviews inside Ukraine and foreign media, I constantly said that during the invasion this was the only case of pressure,” the journalist wrote.
Soon, a post was published on the Telegram channel “Card Office” with photographs of the doors of Nikolov’s apartment. The report claims that “the military arrived from scratch for a rotation and decided to hand over the subpoena to one well-known journalist, who for several years fed from the hands of a Russian businessman of Armenian origin, fled Kiev at the beginning of a full-scale invasion, and upon returning decided to pretend that none of this had happened.” was “.
After the scandal, people’s deputy from Golos Yaroslav Zheleznyak suggested that this Telegram channel is connected with the Office of the President and, in particular, the deputy head of the OP Kirill Tymoshenko.
Let us remind you that the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine under the leadership of Alexei Reznikov has repeatedly been involved in procurement scandals. In January 2023, a scandal arose around inflated prices for food for the military, and in August last year the department was accused of corruption in the purchase of Turkish jackets for the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
