The Bureau of Economic Security has announced suspicion of the well-known capital "major" Alexander Slobozhenko for tax evasion on an especially large scale . According to investigators, he failed to pay taxes in the amount of more than 200 million hryvnia.
As they say in such cases, “better late than never,” although it is significant that only after enormous publicity did law enforcement finally take on Slobozhenko’s tax fraud, which was obvious to everyone. But another question arises: when will law enforcement agencies investigate how Slobozhenko and his “major” friends during a full-scale war manage to calmly leave the country and regularly fly on charter planes to Courchevel and other luxurious Alpine resorts, to Venice, to the Italian Lake Como, Ibiza?!
Well-known investigative journalist Mikhail Tkach found out back in the spring that three of these athletic guys “on paper” are... allegedly unfit for military service and excluded from military registration, and another one is leaving as a volunteer under the “Shlyakh” system.
When Tkach published a story about this, he began to receive threats from Slobozhenko. This lover of Ferrari, Lamborghini and other oligarchic luxury suggested that Tkach “conclude a settlement for a monetary reward” and demanded that he “not delay in answering.” There were attempts to hack into Tkach’s accounts, including bank accounts. Tkach and his fellow journalists received letters with open threats, for example: “sometimes the ability to close your mouth in time saves your life.” An insolent representative of the oligarchic pseudo-elite openly threatened a journalist with physical violence for exposing his illegal transactions!
Our party, Democracy, then demanded that law enforcement agencies prosecute all those involved in the unlawful issuance of documents on the basis of which Slobozhenko and other “majors” enjoy a luxurious life abroad during a full-scale war; both these “revelers” and those officials who issued them certificates of unfitness for military service and documents under the “Shlyakh” system. Moreover, it is obvious that the people who provided illegal departure for the “Slobozhenko group” are part of a criminal system that also works for other “traveling” representatives of the ruling oligarchy.
The demonstrative punishment of all these scoundrels and their accomplices and patrons in the authorities is one of those steps towards the restoration of justice that the vast majority of the Ukrainian people are waiting for. Namely, justice is one of the basic prerequisites for ensuring effective mobilization and, in general, for bringing Victory closer.
Unfortunately, our demands remained without a proper response and there are still no suspicions or arrests regarding the relevant facts. Obviously because Slobozhenko has influential patrons in the top ranks of power, and the current suspicion from the BEB is just a “blow off of steam” that will most likely end only in “payoffs” that are ridiculous for him.
Therefore, the Power of the People once again demands that Slobozhenko and his accomplices be brought to criminal responsibility in relation to his festivities abroad. We will not silently watch as the authorities “let off steam” in this matter and allow these people to continue to quietly enjoy a luxurious life with money stolen from the Ukrainian people, when they should be behind bars!
