MP Anna Skorokhod has been served a notice of suspicion for trading in NSDC sanctions

A notice of suspicion has been served to MP Hanna Skorokhod from the “For the Future” party.

This was reported by the press service of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) on its Facebook page.

According to the investigation, the group led by Skorokhod offered a businessman, for 250,000 dollars, to arrange for the National Security and Defense Council (NSDC) to impose sanctions on a competitor’s company.

When the “client” handed over part of the sum — 125,000 dollars — they assured him that the money would be passed on to NSDC officials. However, as NABU stated, neither NSDC members nor any other officials ever received the funds, because the perpetrators did not find anyone willing to carry out the illegal actions.

At the same time, NABU published what it claims is video footage of certain negotiations involving the MP. In the video, the deputy says that after the transfer of the money, two IOUs will be written, which she will keep, and “as soon as everything happens,” they will be destroyed.

She also says that “the arrival of the person regarding your issue” cost 5,000 dollars and that she is not going to pay that.

At the end of the video, a man receives the money. What exactly the money is for and which issue the interlocutors promise to resolve is not discussed.

Skorokhod does not admit guilt and considers the case against her to be political persecution.

Let us recall that shortly before the searches were conducted at the MP’s premises, she registered in the Verkhovna Rada a draft resolution demanding that anti-corruption agencies immediately publish audio recordings and documents in the case of businessman Timur Mindich.
