Search underway at UniCredit Bank

The Security Service of Ukraine is conducting a search at UniCredit Bank premises, which, according to the investigation, was used to launder money and fund separatism and terrorism. The search warrant was issued by the Pechersk District Court of Kyiv.

According to law enforcement officials, funds were cashed out with the help of several bank managers, as well as the main legal partner of "Boyarshchukov, Alekseev and Company".

The investigation has proven that the company's lawyers were involved in transferring bank funds to fictitious enterprises for cashing out. Money intended for terrorist organisations operating in eastern Ukraine also passed through these accounts.

It is worth noting that Sergey Alekseev is a sitting People's Deputy of Ukraine from the "Udar" party, elected by the people to defend the country's interests, not to evade taxation, let alone fund terrorists, although the latter still needs to be proven.
