After this, the Solomensky District Court of Kyiv on February 27 sent the pro-Russian politician only to night house arrest without wearing an electronic bracelet – as a suspect in justifying Russia’s armed aggression.
Watchers reports this with reference to the commentary of the press secretary of the Kyiv Regional Prosecutor’s Office.
This timing of the notification about Lukyanov may be related to the ongoing corruption scandal surrounding the head of the SBU cybersecurity department, Ilya Vityuk.
After all, the latest press release from the SBU about the February detention of Lukyanov states that it was “cyber specialists of the Security Service who prevented the escape of a former people’s deputy from Ukraine from the banned Party of Regions.”
Let us remind you that the other day there was an investigation. Info released an investigation about the head of the Cyber Security Department regarding his wife’s purchase of an apartment with a market value of UAH 20 million for UAH 12.8 million. After the investigation was released, it turned out that TCC representatives, who were brought there by an employee of the Cybersecurity Department, tried to serve a subpoena to the journalist who was preparing it in the shopping center. After this, Vityuk was suspended from duties for the period of the inspection.
Background
Reportedly, the 60-year-old former deputy was detained near the border checkpoint in the Odessa region, from where he tried to leave as a person of non-conscription age.
In 2020, Lukyanov became a deputy of the Bakhmut City Council from OPZH.
After a full-scale invasion, he cooperated with the occupiers and re-registered his Internet provider company under the laws of the Russian Federation.
In addition, he gave the FSB full access to existing equipment, which allowed the Russian intelligence service to monitor the Internet activity of the local population.
The deputy himself moved to Ukrainian-controlled territory and managed the company remotely. And then for some reason I decided to flee abroad
