On suspicion of financing
terrorism, the accounts of payment
system E-Pay at the
"All-Ukrainian Bank for Development" have been frozen. The relevant
court ruling was obtained before the New Year.
The investigation claims that employees of the payment system, through
four dozen individuals residing in the territory not under Ukraine's control,
registered as entrepreneurs with the tax authorities of the DPR from May 2014
until the beginning of this year, ensured the servicing of the company's terminals,
which allowed militants to easily transfer funds to cards, as well as top up
mobile phones.
A few days before SBU investigators went to court to seek the freezing of the accounts, the National Bank announced the liquidation of the "VBR" bank.
The investigation is ongoing.
