MSU student provided luxury real estate for Vyacheslav Guz, head of the State Migration Service of Kyiv

The scandal surrounding the head of the State Migration Service of Kyiv and the region, Vyacheslav Guz, is gaining new momentum. According to the editors of Mezha, this time the focus was on Guz’s lawsuits against journalists, which became the reason for a third investigation into his activities.

So, a little background. In 2016, Guz, known as the former head of the migration service of Kharkov and the region, sold his apartment in Kharkov to his niece Tatyana Pakhomova, a student at Moscow State University.

His mother is registered in this apartment, and Pakhomova herself was able to buy real estate in the elite residential complex “Jack House” in Pechersk a year after graduating from college.

Guz’s declaration states that he rents this very apartment from his niece. At the same time, his official salary for 2023 is 741 thousand hryvnia per year, which is approximately 61 thousand hryvnia per month. Apartments in the “Jack House” with a similar square footage cost from two thousand dollars a month, which clearly exceeds his income.

Tatyana Pakhomova has only been doing tattoos since 2020, but she has already managed to earn money for an apartment in such a prestigious area in just a few years. Moreover, traces of a connection with Guz’s common-law wife, Inna Gudz, were found on her Instagram, which confirmed their family relationship.

When journalists tried to get a comment from Pakhomova, she ignored their requests. They also tried three times to get an appointment with Guz, but he never showed up in his office on Bereznyakovskaya, 4-a.

Meanwhile, the National Agency for the Prevention of Corruption (NACP) has already confirmed that it is monitoring Guz’s lifestyle and will take into account the presented facts in its work.
