In particular, Energoatom&#8217;s contractors were forced to pay kickbacks to avoid having payments for their services\/products blocked or losing their supplier status. This practice was called \u2018shlahbaum\u2019 (&#8216;barrier&#8217;).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To implement the scheme, the head of the criminal organisation involved the former Deputy Head of the State Property Fund, who later became an advisor to the Minister of Energy, and a former law enforcement officer who held the position of Executive Director for Physical Protection and Security at Energoatom. Using their official connections in the ministry and the state-owned company, they ensured control over personnel decisions, procurement processes, and financial flows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, the management of a strategic enterprise with an annual income of over UAH 200 billion was carried out not by state officials, but by third parties who had no formal authority, though took on the role of \u2018overseers\u2019 or &#8216;shadow managers&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Legalisation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The function of legalising illegally obtained funds was entrusted to a separate office of the criminal organisation located in the centre of Kyiv. The premises belonged to the family of former Ukrainian MP and current russian senator Andriy Derkach, who NABU and SAPO accuse in another criminal proceeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This office kept strict records of the funds received, maintained \u2018black accounting\u2019 and organised money laundering through a network of non-resident companies. A significant part of the operations, particularly the cash&nbsp;issuance, was carried out outside Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For providing services to non-members of the criminal organisation, the office received a percentage of the amounts processed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In total, approximately USD 100 million passed through the so-called \u2018laundry\u2019 as its activities were documented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Operation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The special operation to document the activities of the criminal organisation lasted over 15 months, starting in the summer of 2024. During this time, a large amount of data was collected, and thousands of hours of audio recordings were obtained.&nbsp;NABU and SAPO are assessing the actions of all participants in these materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the final stage, almost all of the detectives of the National Anti-Corruption Bureau were involved in the operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By court order, more than 70 searches were conducted in Kyiv and other regions, and a significant amount of documents and cash were seized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NABU detectives and SAPO prosecutors continue to identify other members of the criminal organisation. The investigation is ongoing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>According to Article 62 of the Constitution of Ukraine, a person is considered not-guilty in the commission of a crime and cannot be subject to criminal punishment until he or she is found guilty by court.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1344\" height=\"1126\" data-id=\"288746\" src=\"https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/3.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-288746\" srcset=\"https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/3.webp 1344w, https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/3-300x251.webp 300w, https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/3-768x643.webp 768w, https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/3-1200x1005.webp 1200w, https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/3-955x800.webp 955w, https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/3-239x200.webp 239w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1344px) 100vw, 1344px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1344\" height=\"1126\" data-id=\"288741\" src=\"https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/4.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-288741\" srcset=\"https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/4.webp 1344w, https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/4-300x251.webp 300w, https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/4-768x643.webp 768w, https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/4-1200x1005.webp 1200w, https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/4-955x800.webp 955w, https:\/\/upmp.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/4-239x200.webp 239w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1344px) 100vw, 1344px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/nabu.gov.ua\/en\/news\/operatciia-midas-vykryto-vysokorivnevu-zlochynnu-organizatciiu-shcho-diiala-u-sferi-energetyky\/\">NABU<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"newspaper-x-tags\"><strong><\/strong><span><a href=\"https:\/\/upmp.news\/en\/tag\/back-office\/\" rel=\"tag\">back-office<\/a><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/upmp.news\/en\/tag\/jsc-nnegc-energoatom\/\" rel=\"tag\">JSC \u2018NNEGC \u2019Energoatom&#8221;<\/a><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/upmp.news\/en\/tag\/sapo\/\" rel=\"tag\">SAPO<\/a><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/upmp.news\/en\/tag\/nabu-en\/\" rel=\"tag\">\u041d\u0410\u0411\u0423<\/a> <\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NABU and SAPO have exposed a criminal organization comprising current and former officials, a well-known businessman, and other individuals.
