Judge of the Economic Court of the Kharkiv region Iryna Popovych received notice of suspicion of declaring false statements

Upon Automaidan’s investigation, AntAC lawyers appealed to the National Anticorruption Bureau of Ukraine with the request to check the e-declaration of judge of the Economic Court of the Kharkiv region Iryna Popovych.

During the investigation, NABU detectives found out that the judge deliberately filed in her 2015 declaration false information about the property, which was used by her family members in 2015. The assets were registered for a legal entity, where Popovych’s husband had a significant share of corporate rights. In the aggregate, total amount of her undeclared assets exceeded 3,6 million UAH. In particular, these are two apartments and car place in Kharkiv, a land plot with adjoining household facilities in the Kharkiv region worth over 1,2 million UAH and an expensive car.

On November 7, 2018, NABU officers handed the notice of suspicion to Iryna Popovych of declaring false information (Article 366-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine).
