The SBU, Ukraine’s Security Service, and the Prosecutor General’s Office conduct searches at the central office of Ukrgazvydobuyvannya. The state-run gas production company reported that on Wednesday.
There is so far no certain information whether the searches are related to particular criminal investigations led by either of the agencies. However, last month, the court arrested Ukrgazvyudobuvannya’s deputy head Olexandr Somov; the official was detained under charges with embezzling the property of the company and selling gas at an intentionally lowered price.
