The court dismissed the case against the former deputy head of OGHK due to the expiration of the statute of limitations
The High Anti-Corruption Court acquitted Yuriy Pertsev, former deputy head of OGHK, of criminal liability due to the expiration of the statute of limitations. The court did not reach a verdict in the case.
According to the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office (SAPO), Pertsev, together with the company’s then-head Ruslan Zhurylo, organized the sale of titanium raw materials through affiliated foreign intermediaries. The investigation estimated the losses to the state-owned OGHK at $12.87 million.
The prosecutor objected to Pertsev’s release, arguing that the statute of limitations had not yet expired. In his view, because the joint actions attributed to Pertsev and Zhurylo continued, the statute of limitations would not expire until the end of 2026.
At the same time, the defense requested that Percev’s seized apartment, car, money, and phone be returned to him, and that the Ministry of Economy’s civil claim be dismissed.
Ruslan Zhurylo’s case has been suspended for the time being due to his military service.
This was reported by the Telegram channel Absolution Leaks.
