Ukraine Names Zelenskyy’s Former Chief of Staff in UAH460 Million Laundering Probe

Ukraine’s anti-corruption agencies have named Andrii Yermak, former head of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s office, as a suspect in an alleged UAH460 million money laundering scheme.

The National Anti-Corruption Bureau and Specialised Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office allege that an organised group laundered funds through the construction of a high-end residential development outside Kyiv. Investigators say the project involved four private mansions and related luxury facilities.

Yermak was served with a notice of suspicion, a procedural step short of conviction. The Ukrainian president is not a suspect in the case.
