Remember Kyiv City Council deputy Vladislav Trubitsyn? This is the character who fled abroad due to persecution by NABU and SAPO for receiving UAH 1.39 million in bribes for “organizing” retail trade in the capital.
It's a standard story, in my opinion. But let’s remember, and then I’ll tell you something interesting.
Without waiting for a verdict in Ukraine, Trubitsyn fled in a Mercedes S600 along with his assistant Yuri Likhachev and antiques collector Ruslan Shapiro. At the same time, the media published information that the departure of these three and two others was “registered” through a letter from the Main Intelligence Directorate. Oh-wey, almost a scandal, if not for one thing.
It was not the Main Intelligence Directorate that played the key role in the departure of Trubitsyn and company, but the Special Operations Forces. Viktor Khorenko, the then head of the MTR, made a request to Kirill Budanov, who signed a letter for the “specialists” in a friendly manner. Therefore, Trubitsyn did not and could not have any relation to the intelligence officers.
But that's how it is. Scoundrels are not immediately recognizable.
Another interesting thing is, where did Trubitsyn go anyway? I'm telling you.
As always, a (un)lucky accident. Depending on who it “fell” to.
Now about the randomness.
Haifa. Israel. Realtor Aron and his work partner, arriving in a black Opel, show off the apartments. But…. It’s as if “in the original” it’s not Aron, but Vladislav. Vladislav Trubitsyn. Who, to confirm that he and his colleague, Yuri Likhachevich, were not grabbers, gave his partner’s passport to be photographed.
If anyone needs apartments in Haifa, like Upper or Lower Adar, then contact us. True, I would choose Verkhniy. More solid, but much more expensive. There are also beautiful views from the University of Haifa grounds.
PS I would not be surprised if Vladislav Trubitsyn became Aron Trubitsyn, having received citizenship of Eretz Israel. He lives a quiet life, works “for show” as a realtor.
PPS Hopes that the hands of NABU-SAP will not reach. And everyone will forget how he framed the Special Operations Forces by using the unit to travel abroad.
