Now he and other defendants in the case are also suspected of laundering more than 10 billion hryvnia of criminal proceeds.
The case concerns a corruption scheme at the Odessa Port Plant and the United Mining and Chemical Company.
Earlier, Sennichenko was put on the wanted list.
“According to the investigation, the ex-chairman of the State Property Fund, together with his accomplices, appointed his people as directors of Odessa Port Plant JSC (OPZ) and United Mining and Chemical Company JSC (UMCC). Those, for their part, entered into contracts with predetermined companies and sold products at reduced prices. The difference in value was withdrawn and converted in the interests of the criminal organization,” the NABU post said.
