Izmail is a city located in southwestern Ukraine that for many centuries served as a fortress for warriors from various countries, including the Ottoman Empire, Moldavia, Romania and Russia. In total, in 1940 the city came under the full control of the Ukrainian USSR. However, Izmail’s roads are still actively used to transport goods to the countries of the European Union.
As in any border regional center affecting the EU, corruption flourishes at all levels of government along this path. Either because it’s not far to run abroad if something happens, or because it is so influenced by the air of the West, because the distance from the central government gives a free hand, making such remote regions an appanage principality with its “kings” and “boyars” ”, who feel completely safe and do as they please.
So in the famous center of Ukrainian Bessarabia, the Yankovsky family calmly “resolves” almost any issues in two shifts. But they do it very “quietly”, so there is little information about them in open sources.
Husband - Viktor Iosifovich Yankovsky, a lawyer with more than 20 years of legal experience. Has cases on protecting local knackers who killed domestic animals with particular cruelty. The arsenal includes the practice of litigation with the Izmail district state administration of the Odessa region to cancel state acts on land and construction. As a former policeman, he had connections in the local police, prosecutor's office and court.
His wife is Elena Petrovna Yankovskaya, also a lawyer with more than 20 years of legal experience. Included in the TOP 10 lawyers from. Novoozernoe (Izmail district). It was registered as a sole proprietorship for the provision of legal services, rental and operation of its own or leased real estate. Among the cases there is a defense of the beating of an entrepreneur who did not want to put up with the decision of the city council to demolish his MAF.
Son - Yankovsky Oleg Viktorovich. Also a lawyer with more than ten years of experience. Judging by the reviews, she “decided” more than the lawyer. “He does not protect people, but excuses them from prosecution for crimes and illegal activities, neglecting the morality, honor and dignity of a lawyer. He loves money very much and hides his profits because he identifies himself as a “free” lawyer, while at the same time he takes a lot of money. Case No. 500/8239/18 in the Izmail court on his application for laundering of alimony for 2 children, who does not pay, although there is a court decision, he has been “delaying” for more than three years,” write people who have encountered the management of Oleg’s affairs Yankovsky. That seems to be it: an ordinary dynasty of corrupt lawyers.
Digging a little deeper and talking with the locals, it becomes clear that the status of “decided” concerns not only Oleg Yankovsky, but also the entire family, where complete matriarchy reigns.
Fans of gesheft and those who have caught shady schemes sign up to Elena Yankovskaya in line from 4 in the morning so that she can decide and beg to take over their case. It is natural that the main income is from “solving” criminal cases. The things my husband received while serving in the police help in this regard. In addition, almost all the judges of the Izmail court are fed. This is where NABU detectives, who have concentrated on the capital, need to work. It's time to pay attention to the border areas.
By the way, the Yankovskys’ business is quite profitable. There are 7 apartments registered for the head of the family in Odessa alone. It’s clear why she has the activity of “renting premises” in her sole proprietorship.
At first glance, it looks like an ordinary corrupt legal dynasty. However, the son, as usual, became a problem from childhood. Former classmates say that “Olezhka did not have enough stars in his studies and graduated from school like an ordinary C student.” However, he received a “medalist” certificate. They say that Elena Yankovskaya bought grades for the child, and at official events no one advertised Oleg’s progress.
It is typical that such medalists entered the National University “Odessa Law Academy”, owned by the ex-head of the Central Election Commission Sergei Kivalov, whose last name is “Pidrakhui”. And so that the heavy burden of everyday life does not weigh heavily on her only child, Yankovskaya buys an apartment. Six months later, the elite apartments turned into a brothel in which “registrations” were systematically carried out in a drunken and drug-fueled stupor. Among the party regulars was the odious former judge of the Primorsky District Court. Odessa Andrey Tarasov, dismissed by the High Council of Justice for gross violations of the duties of a judge and significant violations of procedural law during the administration of justice, which made it impossible for participants in the trial to exercise the procedural rights granted to them and to fulfill procedural duties. He groundlessly seized 3,800 tons of sunflower, 1,800 tons of corn, 1,000 tons of soybeans belonging to PJSC “Production Contract Association “Southern” Association” and unjustifiably transferred to the storage of Novotek-info LLC. Where did all of the above disappear from?
Tarasov still has corrupt connections in the courts of Odessa. He and lawyer Julia Sher are still lovers. The latter is the daughter of the former deputy chairman of the Primorsky District Court of Odessa, Natalia Ilchenko.
However, let's return to Oleg Yankovsky. Among the classmates are the revelers and the current chairman of the Izmail city district court of the Odessa region, Alexander Prisakar. And Yankovsky’s mother also intended him to become a servant of Themis, making him an assistant judge. However, even for the spoiled judges, he behaved immorally, constantly appearing in a state of alcohol or drug intoxication. For which he was subsequently removed from his post.
Oleg is in a drug frenzy in an underground club during curfew
And where do they go in such cases, when on the one hand there is almost zero knowledge of the law and a complete lack of morality and discipline, and on the other, the judges and prosecutors are fellow students at the academy and the huge corruption connections of mom and dad? Of course, to become a lawyer. True, from the lawyer Oleg Yankovsky only has a crust bought by his mother. So he usually “decided”. And then at the beck and call of the head of the family. Oleg got married according to his mother’s instructions. On the daughter of a judge from Krivoy Rog Sergei Mkhitaryan. Elena Yankovskaya thought that at least this way he would get rid of infantilism and a tendency to drug addiction. However, it is not destined to be. Oleg was unable to use his father-in-law's administrative resources. And now Yankovskaya is hiding him from the military commissars, and Izmail public pages are full of videos of a stoned Oleg in nightclubs during curfew.
This is only a small part of the Yankovsky octopus of corruption. They also have many relatives who help them successfully “resolve” issues in the courts and get the solutions the Yankovsky clients want. There will also soon be a lot of interesting material for law enforcement agencies about them. After all, corruption is perhaps the worst in the Odessa region. What can we expect from the court, which is still headed by the former chairman of the Izmail city district court of the Odessa region, Stepan Pepelyashkov, quietly directing the processes from the basement of the court and having a fairly close relationship with Elena Yankovskaya.
It will be more interesting later...
