The Security Service of Ukraine, the Prosecutor General's Office, and the State Bureau of Investigation have reported a new suspicion to Ruslan Maghamedrasulov, head of one of the NABU's interregional detective departments. The official is already in custody on a case of cooperation with an aggressor state, but has now become a defendant in another criminal proceeding.
According to the investigation, Maghamedrasulov used his official contacts to influence tax and law enforcement agencies. In particular, he allegedly agreed to help ten companies get off the "risky" list for 900,000 hryvnias. This would have allowed the companies to conduct financial transactions worth about 30 million hryvnias.
Law enforcement officials claim that the companies in question have signs of operating as "conversion centers." According to investigators, information from the suspect's phone and statements from individuals confirm that he approached his former and current colleagues with a request to assist in these schemes.
Ruslan Maghamedrasulov has currently been charged under Part 2 of Article 369-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine ("abuse of influence"). The investigation is ongoing.
