Vyacheslav Lysenko, co-owner of the CEO of Club Ukraine, opened an underground casino and a fraudulent call center in Kyiv under the guise of the CEO of the club.
Law enforcement officers monitored Vyacheslav Lysenko for 8 months. During a search on April 30 in the business center of Vyacheslav Lysenko at st. Degtyarevskaya 33B, law enforcement officers discovered a casino where deputies and the elite of Kyiv were gambling clandestinely. A call center that defrauded citizens of the Czech Republic, Germany and Ukraine out of money was also exposed.
Detectives from the Territorial Administration of the BEB in Kyiv exposed an illegal casino and a fraudulent call center in one of the capital’s business centers. The establishment, which hosted poker gambling for money without the appropriate licenses, was set up on the ninth floor of the building, and the call center was on the fourth.
Bureau detectives conducted a series of searches at the address of the casino and the residence of those involved in criminal proceedings. Poker equipment, computer equipment, accounting documents, video cameras with recordings of casino visits, as well as envelopes with cash for issuing rewards to players were found and seized at the gambling establishment.
In law enforcement agencies, Slepukha Mikhail Sergeevich received suspicion in this case. He is a director in two companies owned by Vyacheslav Lysenko, a shareholder of the logistics company Meest China, a member of the supervisory board of CEO Club Ukraine. Lysenko himself fled abroad.
At the same time, during a search of the home of one of the defendants, almost 135 thousand US dollars and about 5 thousand euros in cash were seized. The man has no official income and could not explain the origin of the money.
Also on the fourth floor of the same building, a call center was discovered, whose employees fraudulently misappropriated funds from citizens of Ukraine, Germany and the Czech Republic.
The victims received phone calls and were offered to invest in software that supposedly deals with automatic trading of cryptocurrencies and brings in 5% income daily. After the victims transferred funds to the virtual accounts specified by the center, communication with the subscriber was blocked.
During the search, more than 60 workstations with computer equipment, telephones, as well as rough notes and manuals for communicating with victims were seized.
Based on this fact, BEB detectives began a pre-trial investigation of criminal proceedings under part four of Article 190 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
