According to the official rate of the NBU at the time of the crime, it is more than 722 million hryvnias. The owner of the agricultural holding was also informed about suspicion of bribery. It is noted that the collection of the NABUʼs evidence base began back in 2017.

- In March 2017, NABU declared Roman Nasirov the suspicion. He was accused of groundless tax installments to the enterprises of ex-deputy Oleksandr Onyshchenko, which allegedly caused 2 billion in losses to the state. On the same day, Nasirov allegedly suffered a heart attack in Feofania. On March 4, he was examined at the Institute of Cardiology named after Strazhesko, where was found out that he did not have a heart attack.
