The Pechersk District Court of Kyiv imposed a preventive measure in the form of a personal commitment to the MP of "Servant of the People" Yuriy Aristov, who went to the Maldives with forged documents.
The State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) reported this on July 28.
Aristov is suspected of forging official documents for organizing a holiday in the Maldives.
According to the investigation, Aristov prepared documents in order to be granted a three-day business trip "in order to deepen cooperation with Lithuania." In these documents, he entered false information about the period of his stay abroad (the MP purchased plane tickets to the Maldives in advance).
While abroad, he remotely opened a hospital in one of the private medical institutions of the city of Kyiv. During his sick leave, Aristov was in the Maldives with his family.
- On July 25, "Investigation.Info" published an investigation about Yuriy Aristovʼs vacation at the five-star Waldorf Astoria Maldives hotel on the private island of Ithaafushi. Later, Aristov wrote a statement on drawing up the credentials of a MP of Ukraine.
- On July 26, SBU and SBI began to investigate whether the MP from "Servant of the People" Yuriy Aristov legally went on vacation to the Maldives during martial law.
- On July 27, the Verkhovna Rada terminated the parliamentary powers of the MP Yuriy Aristov, and the Prosecutor General informed him of the suspicion of forgery of official documents.
