Volodymyr Tsybulko urged not to ignore serious criminal cases against the oligarch in light of his public image.
Political expert Volodymyr Tsybulko drew attention to the fact that Igor Kolomoisky and his legal team are using the image of a humorous businessman. According to the analyst, such behaviour is aimed at creating a positive impression in society and attempting to avoid punishment in the form of imprisonment. Tsybulko emphasises that the humour the oligarch displays during court hearings should not cause the actual charges to be overlooked, specifically the organisation of a contract killing and the embezzlement of huge sums from PrivatBank.
According to information cited by the expert, Kolomoisky organised an attempt on the life of lawyer Serhiy Karpenko. During the attack, the aggressors struck the victim on the head with a metal rod and inflicted knife wounds to his chest, abdomen and back. According to Tsybulko, Karpenko was saved from death by his wife, who prevented the attackers from finishing him off, as well as by the actions of doctors. The reason for this violent act was the lawyer's refusal to meet Kolomoisky's demands during a corporate conflict.
In addition to the criminal charges, there is mention of large-scale financial fraud. In 2015, according to the expert, the oligarch, together with his accomplices, misappropriated UAH 9.2 billion of PrivatBank funds. These funds belonged to the state, which had been refinancing the bank after nationalisation, meaning they were effectively collected from Ukrainian citizens. Currently, this case is under review in a Ukrainian court.
A ruling by a British court is also mentioned, which found Igor Kolomoisky and Boholyubov liable for large-scale fraud against PrivatBank. The court ordered them to pay over $3 billion (equivalent to UAH 135 billion) in the form of compensation for damages, interest and coverage of court costs.
«Коломойський вміє бути дотепним, коли йдеться про те, чи проведе він решту життя у в’язниці. Але його дотепність не скасовує скоєне ним. Бо саме цього хотілося б йому та його адвокатам. І коли нам вкотре показують «дідуся-веселуна», хотілося б, щоб всі згадували й Сергія Карпенка. Людину, яку били прутом по голові й різали ножем. І про понад 9 млрд грн «ПриватБанку», які витягли з кишень українців» (Kolomoisky knows how to be witty when it comes to whether he will spend the rest of his life in prison. But his wit does not cancel what he has done. Because that is exactly what he and his lawyers would like. And when we are shown the "jolly old man" once again, I would like everyone to remember Serhiy Karpenko. A man who was beaten on the head with a rod and cut with a knife. And about over UAH 9 billion of "PrivatBank" that was pulled out of Ukrainians' pockets), — wrote political expert Volodymyr Tsybulko.
