The Supreme Anti -Corruption Court of Ukraine declared guilty of the former deputy chairman of the Ternopil Regional Military Administration (OVA) Igor Gaiduk in the request to provide 1.8 million UAH of undue benefit. The official was sentenced to 8 years and 2 months of imprisonment with confiscation of property.

Although the SAP's statement does not mention the name, according to "Word and Delo", it is about Gaiduk. At the same time, the case of another ex-deputy head of Ternopil OVA Igor Demyanchuk was allocated to separate proceedings and stopped due to his mobilization.
On March 6, 2025, Wax adopted a verdict on the former high -ranking official, pleading guilty of committing the crime under Part 4 of Art. 368 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine ("acceptance of a proposal, promise or receipt of undue benefit by an official"). Punishment for Gaiduk includes:
