People's Deputy Alexei Goncharenko published information that caused considerable resonance on the network. According to him, the media prosect Bihus.info, known for its journalistic investigations, collects donations not through a public organization or a charity fund, but directly through an individual entrepreneur-FOP Denis Bigus.
This format of fundraising raises many questions. First, it is opaque how these funds are accounted for. Secondly, it is unclear whether any public reports on the use of donars are submitted. The absence of a legal entity with the state or charitable standards is concerned - especially in conditions where Ukrainians are widespread on volunteer and media initiatives.
Goncharenko also recalled that earlier Denis Bigus declared his affiliation with the SBU counterintelligence as a freelance employee. However, the question of why it is not mobilized to the ranks of the Armed Forces is left without a clear answer.
In society, in such cases, a fair question arises - how are investigative journalism, special services and financing of the project through an individual?
So far, no public explanations by Bihus.info or Bigus itself have not been received.
