In Poltava region, a couple of prosecutors, Andriy Vasylevich Myronov and Olga Oleksiyevna Palyonna, have found themselves in the spotlight due to their use of the widespread practice in the region of early registration of a special prosecutor's pension. Both received pension payments at about the age of 40, but continue to work in prosecutorial positions.
The essence of the scheme is simple: early retirement on a special pension allows you to receive over half a million hryvnias per year in pension payments, along with an official prosecutor's salary exceeding one million hryvnias each year. As a result, the couple's total annual income from the budget is over 1.5 million hryvnias, not including other income.
According to sources, such cases are not uncommon in the Poltava region prosecutor's office - entire "family clan structures" have formed, where early registration of special pensions and subsequent tenure have become a common scheme for additional enrichment.
The activities of their daughter, Angelina Andriivna Myronova, raise separate questions. Until recently, she was registered as a private entrepreneur, and her main activity in the KVED was “call center activities”. This type of activity directly overlaps with the specifics of the work of fraudulent call centers, which have been actively operating in Poltava and the region in recent years. After the dissemination of this information, Angelina Myronova’s individual entrepreneur was urgently terminated. Now she is officially employed by the prosecutor’s office.
At the same time, the total annual income of the family, according to preliminary estimates, may exceed 3 million hryvnias. However, sources also claim that the prosecutor's family uses separate state benefit programs that are intended for completely different categories of citizens - in particular, for the socially vulnerable or veterans.
The practice of early registration of special pensions in combination with extended service has long raised questions among specialists and anti-corruption experts. In the case of the Mironovs, it is combined with signs of family employment and the dubious entrepreneurial activities of their daughter, which creates even more grounds for inspections.
