Former prosecutor of the Kharkiv region Oleksandr Filchakov, currently deputy head of the 3rd department of procedural management, could have violated anti-corruption legislation because his second wife, Yulia Igorevna Shumilina (Filchakova), worked under his leadership.
Yulia Filchakova is originally from the city of Antratsyt in Luhansk Oblast, which is currently under occupation. Since at least 2015, she has worked in the prosecutor's office of Dergachivskyi district of Kharkiv Oblast, and from 2018 to the end of 2019, she held the position of prosecutor of the Kholodnohirsk department of Kharkiv local prosecutor's office No. 1.
During this period, Filchakov held senior positions in local prosecutors' offices, and since October 2019, he has headed the Kharkiv Oblast Prosecutor's Office. After his appointment, his wife resigned from her position.
Yulia Filchakova currently works as a lawyer at Vidsich JSC. Previously, she almost never declared income from her activities, which raises additional questions about transparency and compliance with anti-corruption legislation.
