The National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) has completed the investigation of the former head of the State Property Fund, Dmytro Sennichenko. He is suspected of involvement in the activities of a criminal group, which caused significant losses to the state in the amount of more than 700 million hryvnias.
In addition, the participants are also suspected of legalizing criminally obtained property worth more than UAH 10 billion. Since 2023, Sennychenko himself and his forgers have been wanted by NABU, as well as under the protection of influential Western financial organizations. Despite the glaring facts of corruption, none of the officials involved in the scheme have yet been punished.
However, it is worth noting that one of the deputies during the years of Sennichenko's rule - Kostyantyn Koshelenko - remained in the shadow of justice. According to law enforcement sources, Koshelenko is a creature of the current Deputy Prime Minister - Minister of Innovation, Development of Education, Science and Technology of Ukraine Mykhailo Fedorov. Both are connected by digital projects such as "Action", "Help", etc.
However, there is not a single compromising mention of Koshelenko's personality in the media: an efficient manager and an exemplary family man. The mass media list only the merits of the official, who, they say, "strengthened the management of the branches through transparent tenders and organized their effective work, as well as developed the open interaction of the Fund's branches with the business environment, territorial communities, regional administrations and the press."
At the same time, in 2021, Koshelenko was a member of the Supervisory Board of "First Kyiv Machine-Building Plant", "Mykolaivoblenergo", "Odesa Port Plant" (OPZ). Here it is important to emphasize that the investigation materials stated that Sennychenko appointed "loyal" members of the OPZ supervisory board.
All three enterprises appear in criminal cases related to the laundering of budget funds. According to the sources, Koshelenko, having work experience and certain connections in the banking sector - "Delta Bank", "Joint Commercial Industrial-Investment Bank" and "Trust" Bank, engaged in kickbacks through shell companies, which made it possible to withdraw multi-million sums .
