The businessman offered the official apartments in his new building with a total area of more than 5 200 square meters. The approximate price of all apartments is 170 million hryvnias. For this, the official had to leave in force the agreements concluded with the company on the construction of housing complexes on the lands of the Ministry of Reconstruction, as well as help with permits. The real estate was to be issued to a trusted person of a top official. At the time of the disclosure, the suspects managed to arrange 15 apartments in the capital.
