Law enforcement officers are carrying out further searches at the home of Oleg Radkovsky, deputy chair of the Odesa Regional Council. According to media reports, these investigative measures are taking place less than two weeks after his arrest in connection with a case involving the alleged receipt of unlawful benefits

This has been reported by Intent, citing its own sources.

According to the publication, investigators are working simultaneously at several locations. Searches are taking place at two private residences linked to Radkovsky, as well as at the premises of companies which, according to journalists, are connected to him.

The publication’s sources claim that during the investigative operations, law enforcement officers seized accounting documents, electronic data storage devices and working records. Meanwhile, the Odesa Regional Prosecutor’s Office confirmed to journalists only that the investigation is ongoing, refusing to comment on its details.

What else are investigators looking into?

According to media reports, the new searches may be linked not only to the case of alleged bribery. Journalists suggest that law enforcement officers are also looking into information regarding the alleged sale of humanitarian aid, which, according to their sources, may have ended up on the ‘7 Kilometre’ market. The estimated value of these goods is 44 million hryvnias.

Previously, the publication ‘Antikor’ reported that clothing and other goods were allegedly imported from Turkey as humanitarian aid for internally displaced persons and those affected by the war. According to the version put forward by the journalists, instead of being distributed free of charge, these goods may have been sold through retail outlets.

Media reports also mention the charitable foundations ‘Doloni Pivdenna’, ‘Volunteer Wings’ and ‘Ridny Bereg’. According to the journalists, the latter is headed by Serhiy Veselov, a member of the Fontanska Village Council, and one of its co-founders is ‘Bereg-Group’ LLC, whose ultimate beneficiary is said to be Oleg Radkovsky.

Why Radkovsky was detained

In early July, the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU), the Public Prosecutor’s Office and the National Police reported that an official of the Odesa Regional Council had been caught, suspected of receiving $50,000 in unlawful benefits. According to the investigation, the money was demanded from a property developer in exchange for assistance in obtaining planning permission for the construction of a cottage estate near the port. Investigators also claim that, should the developer refuse, he was threatened with the creation of artificial obstacles.
