On October 31, 2015, Korban was detained in his apartment in Dnepropetrovsk during a special operation by the GPU and the SBU to combat organized crime groups. He was charged under four articles of the Criminal Code: 255 (creation of an organized criminal organization), 191 (embezzlement, embezzlement of property: in fact, theft of funds from the “National Defense Fund”), 349 (detention of a government official or law enforcement officer as a hostage: according to the fact of the abduction of the head of the State Land Agency Sergei Rudyk and the secretary of the Dnepropetrovsk City Council Alexander Velichko), 289 (theft of motor vehicles).

Doctors did not find any serious health problems and did not confirm Korban’s pre-heart attack condition, and also did not see the need for his hospitalization. The Prosecutor General's Office appealed to the court with a request to choose a preventive measure in the form of detention of Gennady Korban.

On November 2, the Novozavodsk Court of Chernigov was unable to make a decision to arrest Korban, since the defense challenged the judge, and then an ambulance was called for Korban due to deteriorating health.

The main ideological position of the party is the complete destruction of the existing bureaucratic corruption system.
This provides for the renewal of all branches of government and security forces, the creation of a new Constitution and the gradual “nullification” of all laws, transparent financing of political parties, as well as the nationalization of enterprises that are strategically important for the state.

It is a parliamentary republic in which the President cannot be a member or chairman of any party. This is a state with decentralized power and a minimum number of officials. A country that takes an active political position in Europe and the world, capable of defending itself with the help of a professional contract army, reserve units and volunteer battalions. A country not of bureaucratic clans, but of free and responsible citizens.

He served in Melitopol for two years, then entered the drama department at the Gorky Moscow Literary Institute. Then, as an external student, he majored in finance and credit at the Dnepropetrovsk Mining Academy.

In the 90s he started doing business. At first he worked as a broker at the Moscow Exchange Center Union and at the Russian Commodity and Raw Materials Exchange, where he made his starting capital. Korban used it to create the brokerage firm “Ukraine”, which he headed.

In 1988, he joined the army and served for two years as a private in military transport aviation, in the flying guards regiment in Melitopol.

According to Corban, such commodity transactions brought in a lot of money, and thus he earned his first serious capital.

1994 - organized the investment office Slavutich-Capital, which was engaged in the purchase of privatization certificates and investing them in shares. During the 1998 crisis, the company went bankrupt.

Family. Married, has four sons. The elder sister (born 1962) immigrated to Israel with her family in 1989.

This sensational information was told to me today by one of the residents of Dnepropetrovsk. Here is his story.

There is one Gennady Korban, assistant to Benny Kolomoisky, governor of the Dnipropetrovsk region. Korban this is his last name, although, judging by the last name, they were positions his ancestors. Why positions? Because korban in Judaism - executioner who makes human sacrifices.

In this photo, Igor Korban is on the right. On the left is Rabbi Shmuel Kaminetsky, Korban’s spiritual mentor, known for the fact that last year, while celebrating the Jewish holiday of Purim in Kyiv, he declared in front of a large crowd of people that Putin is the new Aman(article in the newspaper "Kyiv Jewish": "Today a new Aman came to Ukraine" ). This is what the Jews call the most sworn enemy of the Jewish people. Speaking to the Dnepropetrovsk community, Rabbi Kaminetsky said: “We have been living together with Ukrainians for 1000 years. And Ukraine is our Land! Today we will read the Scroll of Esther as it has been read for thousands of years on Purim. And today this reading has special significance. Today, the new Aman, our common enemy with the Ukrainians, is standing very close..."

Igor Korban still performs essentially the same function in Ukraine today. executioner, defending in the most merciless manner the conquests Jewish revolution, sprinkled with splashes in February 2014.

Korban told himself on camera how he does this:

What’s also interesting is that this Igor Korban-Executioner is the organizer "Ukrainian Association of Patriots" ("DILL"), which was registered by the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine on September 25, 2014, certificate No. 250.

Help from Wikipednia:

The chairman of the Ukrop party since June 2015 is Gennady Olegovich Korban. The main organizer of the creation of the party is the Ukrainian oligarch Igor Kolomoisky. The governing body of the party is the Party Congress.

The strategic goal of the UKROP party, according to the program, is to promote the construction of an independent rule of law state, a civil society of social justice and the expression of the political will of citizens, based on the principles of democracy and the rule of law.

The symbol of the party is a plant - dill. The author of the symbolism is the artist Andrey Ermolenko.

The political council of the party includes Boris Filatov, Igor Palitsa, Denis Borisenko, Andrey Denisenko, Dmitry Simansky, Evgeny Terekhov.

The party actively promotes its ideas. The predecessor of the party was the inter-factional group “UkrOP”, created on December 2, 2014. It included people's deputies of Ukraine Dmitry Yarosh, Borislav Bereza, Vladimir Parasyuk, Boris Filatov and others.

.

It is curious that the design of the emblem of the UKROP party was created by the artist Andrei Ermolenko, and the idea of ​​the emblem belongs to the creator of the party, Igor Korban. Moreover, according to eyewitnesses, this idea arose during his communication with his spiritual mentor Rabbi Kaminetsky. Here's how it went:

- Rav Shmuel, we just have the Menorah and the Menorah Chanukiah. The first has seven branches, the second has nine? So?

Yes, it's obvious.

You also said that the Menorah is a symbolic image of the Tree of Life.

Also, don’t get carried away with specifics...

It’s good if the Menorah is also a symbolic image of the Tree of Life, and in the Tree of Life we ​​find partzufim , then why not depict the large Menorah Hanukkiah as a collection of small Menorahs?

What do you mean Gennady?

What I'm saying is that if we multiply nine by seven it becomes sixty-three? Right?

So, so, sixty-three... sixty-three... Oh, Shaddai, Gennady, you Yiddish kopf! You are a genius!

I want to make such a Menorah of Bina of Understanding the emblem of our new party, may the Lord bless me!

Igor Korban the Executioner was then able to greatly surprise the experienced Rav Shmuel Kaminetsky, because he proposed a beautiful symbolic image of the descent of the blessed light from Bina onto New Israel! And the light of Bina is numbered 63 in the Holy Torah!

Quote: “At this point, the goyim fell asleep, and the Jews, with understanding, are already arguing with might and main about how important this discovery is for Chabad Hasidism. Undoubtedly, it deserves that Gennady Korban be recognized as one of gaons generations.

Korban Menorahs are already spreading throughout New Israel, the essence of which is disguised from the eyes of the goyim, but is clear to everyone initiated into Jewish wisdom. They are green, the color of life, prosperity, the color of our dollar wealth, and the color of abundance.

Tel Hai Gaon Korban! May Bina illuminate your success and wealth!"

Poroshenko: Dill sounds proud

This is an article from the Ukrainian press:

Thanks to the separatists, Slavic speech was replenished with a new word - the neologism “Dill”. And thanks to the patriots, the Ukrainian army received “UKROP” totem chevrons, which protect military personnel during battle.

The design of the chevron was demonstrated by the President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko, the Press of Ukraine reported this news.

During his visit to Mariupol, Petro Poroshenko visited the Metallurgical Plant named after. Ilyich, where he demonstrated a patriotic chevron with the inscription UKROP and an image of a plant for the employees of the enterprise.

“Let them call us “dill.” Because UKROP stands for very simply - Ukrainian opera" (Ukrainian resistance - ed.), - said the president, smiling.

It is worth noting that the neologism appeared thanks to the nickname of the Ukrainian nation, which was invented by the separatists. The interesting name was picked up by the artist Andrei Ermolenko and he developed the design of patriotic stripes.

“Dill is an inflorescence that repels the Colorado potato beetle. Squads of flowers and grains that form an army! They called us that, they should be afraid of us,” the artist explained the positivity inherent in the name.

“We have such a time now, we must learn to share, and if it is for a holy cause, then we must give. Everyone is doing something to make this war end. So I wanted to make chevrons, symbols, totems so that they would protect the children,” Ermolenko talks about the security functions of totem chevrons.

The chevrons are put into practice by the workers of the Kyiv workshop “Moryachok”, and the head of production, Tatyana Sopina, is sure that the stripes are intended for real patriots:

“We have such good dill chevrons for real Ukrainian patriots. Andrey Ermolenko developed the drawings, and we brought them to life, so that our heroes, ordinary citizens, students, could all wear them and be proud of the fact that they are Ukrainians, dill-makers,” says Tatyana.

A patriotic patch costs 50 hryvnia, and the money is transferred to the needs of the army. At the same time, almost every fourth chevron somehow ends up at the front.

Activists from different cities of Ukraine are joining the campaign to distribute “dill” patches. The creator of the chevron believes that thanks to the ability to laugh at the enemy, the Ukrainian nation will be able to overcome all the difficulties that will appear on the path of its formation. .

Let me draw a line: “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen.” (Heb. 11:1).

Ukrainians believe what they build for themselves "independent Ukraine" , at the same time, the Jews who came to power over Ukraine as a result of the coup on February 20, 2014, sure what they are building on Ukrainian soil New Israel .

It remains to ask the reader: Whose FAITH do you think is stronger?

An article on a similar topic.

A well-known Chechen crime boss, now deceased, made a statement at the trial back in 2009 that law enforcement agencies did not want to hear. The authority literally shouted from the defendant’s cage: “Why don’t you put Korban here?!” It was he who killed Kurochkin (aka Max Besheny, killed in March 2007), right in the courtroom, a citizen of Russia, by the way, and you pretend that you don’t know who killed him. But we know, and the people know. Korban killed ten people from Kurochkin’s side, and you are defending him!”

Nobody wanted to pay attention to this. However, Gaitukaev probably knew what he was talking about. Only a mentally deranged person would simply throw such words around, even being on the other “side” of the law. What remains is that it was abandoned out of emotion and injustice. After all, Gaitukaev was just tried for the attempt on the life of Gennady Korban.

Korban was supposed to become a victim of killers back in 2006, when Lom-Ali ordered his murder, and even paid an advance for it - exactly 50 thousand dollars. At that time, Korban headed the Privat financial and industrial group.

Having received a deposit, Gaitukaev found a killer, to whom he handed over a Kalashnikov assault rifle, 80 rounds of ammunition and $1 thousand at the Dnepropetrovsk hotel "Rassvet". The stage of surveillance of the businessman began. studied the victim's daily routine. The day before the assassination attempt, Gaitukaev personally watched Korban.

Shots that could have been fatal for the businessman were fired on March 19, 2006. Gaitukaev personally gave the order to shoot Korban’s car with its owner inside. However, the killers did not count on the car being armored. Only the security guard was injured. And even then, only because he opened his door at the moment of the shots.

Detention of Gaitukaev

Lom-Ali Gaitukaev was detained by FSB officers at the end of January 2007 in Moscow. It is known that during his arrest, the information provided by the Ukrainian Security Service was used. Testimony against him was given to the Ukrainian investigation by the direct perpetrator of the assassination attempt, Chechen Arsen Dzhamburaev, who was detained in April 2006 (in December 2006 he was sentenced to 14 years). Since Mr. Gaitukaev is a citizen of Russia, and Russia does not extradite its citizens, his case was heard in the Moscow City Court. During the trial, Mr. Gaitukaev claimed that he was engaged in business in Ukraine and also collected information for the Russian special services. And they were interested in those operating there.

The Moscow City Court found the guilt of the defendant Gaitukaev proven, however, noting the presence of minor children as a mitigating circumstance, it sentenced him to 15 years in a maximum security colony.

A native of Achkhoy-Martan, Lom-Ali Gaitukaev is a legendary figure in Chechnya. In his native regional center, where he has not appeared for many years (judging by the documents, he was registered in Thessaloniki, Greece, and lived in Moscow), they still talk about him with caution and admiration, calling him an “authoritative person.” The fact is that in the early 90s, according to the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs, Mr. Gaitukaev was the organizer of several large scams involving Chechen advice notes. For this he was convicted, however, upon being released, he joined the so-called anti-Maskhadov movement. In any case, in 1997 he was one of the nine co-founders of the interregional social movement for the development of cultural and socio-political ties with the Chechen Republic “New Time”.

Along with Mr. Gaitukaev, one of the co-founders was Khamzat Arsamakov, the general director of the St. Petersburg Samson plant, where in 2006 the Chechen security forces carried out a notorious special operation. The chairman of the society was the former deputy head of the administration of Chechnya, and then the head of the Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs of Chechnya, Usman Masayev.

“Indeed, this organization was founded by me and other well-known Chechen entrepreneurs in opposition to the then Ichkeria,” said Mr. Masayev. However, he could not remember whether Lom-Ali Gaitukaev was among them. “I never knew him personally and had no business with him,” added Mr. Masayev, remembering, however, that he knew Mr. Gaitukaev’s brother, but he died several years ago. And the society itself was then closed.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine suspects that the possible mastermind of the assassination attempt on Gennady Korban was his former business partner Maxim Kurochkin, with whom they allegedly quarreled over control of the Dnepropetrovsk Ozerka market.

Gennady Korban then stated that he had no motive for the murder of Maxim Kurochkin: “Honestly, it is even incorrect to comment on the words of a person who is making an attempt on your life. He (Maxim Kurochkin) and I had settled all our conflicts. As of December 2006, I paid all the money (for the Ozerka market), and all issues between us were closed. Moreover, he himself wrote in some letters that he was being hunted not by Korban, not by Kolomoisky (the head of the Privat group), but by other people. You understand, I am a believer, I go to synagogue, so I cannot take sin on my soul, even for the same Chechen.”

The Hunt for Mad Max

On March 27, 2007, the killer put an end to the life of the famous scandalous businessman Maxim Kurochkin. He was killed right at the exit from the building of the Svyatoshinsky District Court of Kyiv, when, accompanied by security forces, he was heading to the paddy wagon. Probably the disgraced businessman, who was transferred to the category of persons under investigation, knew a lot about someone who was so far beyond the reach of the special services. Mad Max was silenced forever.

True, before this tragic incident, attempts had already been made on Kurochkin. For example, on November 6, 2004, in Kyiv, Maxim Kurochkin with two guards (employees of the Titan special police unit) approached his own car, and at the same moment an explosive device went off in a car parked nearby. Maxim Kurochkin himself was not injured, but his guards were seriously injured. The car bomb was registered to a fake person.

On the night of December 16, 2006, in Dnepropetrovsk, the general director and owner of Dnepropetrovsk Central Market OJSC (Ozerka), one of Maxim Kurochkin’s business partners, Vladimir Vorobyov, was killed. Shortly before his death, he was negotiating with a representative of the Privat group, Gennady Korban, as a result of which the market shares were to come under the control of the group.

On the evening of March 16, 2007, a Toyota Land Cruiser with many bullet holes and three corpses was discovered on the Obukhovskaya highway in the Kyiv region. One of the dead was Maxim Kurochkin’s former security chief Andrey Kharchishen, the others were Anatoly Kurenenko and Demyan Topilin. The Ministry of Internal Affairs assumed that the murder was related to the conflict around the Dnipropetrovsk Ozerka market.

Max Luzhnikovsky

Consider the stories about Kurochkin that are retold from mouth to mouth - for example, how they ordered him hardly a hundred girls as a birthday present, forced him to first take tests, and then took him to the ship to our hero. The holiday was a success - some ladies were later caught overboard in an upset state. If these are inventions of enemies, then where can we look for an explanation for one of Kurochkin’s nicknames – “Max the Mad”?

Maxim Kurochkin - Max Besheny

Since March 2003, Kurochkin has been wanted by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Deputy Minister Gennady Moskal then directly stated that Kurochkin is also known as “Max Luzhnikovsky”. The explanation for this is the market in Moscow Luzhniki, from which Kurochkin began his ascent together with the leader of the Russian Rodina party.

It was generally accepted that in Ukraine Kurochkin represented Babakov’s interests in regional power companies and hotels, the most famous of which was the Premier Palace. At the same time, Kurochkin himself claims that they were partners, but separated in 2004.

According to the police, in Ukraine Kurochkin was guarded for free by 25 employees of the Titan unit of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The explanation for this is Kurochkin’s extremely warm relationship with the then minister, and now another refugee, Nikolai Bilokon.

In general, a lot of things about Kurochkin can be gleaned from the files of law enforcement agencies. The hero himself, when asked about the essence of the facts stated there, said that he simply did not remember the details of those events. And nothing can refresh his memory. After killing Max, there is nothing to refresh...

Gennady Korban, Kolomoisky’s right hand, in former times solved various delicate problems related to the oligarch’s business. According to his opponents, not always by legal methods. In recent years, he was Kolomoisky’s first deputy in the Dnipropetrovsk region, and in fact exercised operational leadership of the region. The author of the now famous phrase: “In the East there is a principle: “The ruler must make you fall in love with yourself.” If you can't make someone fall in love, you should buy it. If you can’t buy it, you have to kill it.” This rule works. We fell in love with some, bought some, and killed others.”

The proof is that several years ago the authorities actually accused the team of the retired governor of a crime in Volnovakha, where, under circumstances that were not fully clarified, an employee of the Security Service of Ukraine was shot. According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the suspects in the murder have been identified, some of them have been detained, the main suspect Denis Gordeev turned out to be a soldier of the Dnepr-1 battalion with the call sign “Lawyer”.

Earlier, the head of the SBU, Valentin Nalyvaichenko, said at a briefing that a criminal group of a certain Martynenko, which is responsible for kidnappings, torture and illegal cargo trafficking, was involved in the murder of an SBU officer in Volnovakha. He also noted that the group is coordinated by people's deputies and high-ranking officials of the Dnepropetrovsk Regional State Administration.

Later, in response to a direct question from journalists about whom they were talking about, Nalivaychenko replied that the deputy head of the Dnepropetrovsk Regional State Administration Oleynik and Korban threatened SBU employees and put pressure on them, and People’s Deputy Andrei Denisenko tried to stand up for those detained in this criminal proceeding. “Officials, especially in the Dnepropetrovsk Regional State Administration, are now threatening our investigators through the use of illegal armed groups, in particular Sich, an enterprise that is supposedly a security structure. Now we are being threatened with the use of these armed people to stop the investigation and arrest of the killer,” Nalyvaichenko said.

The oligarch and sponsor of the Ukrainian punitive operation in the Donbass, Igor Kolomoisky, has recently been regaining the positions lost as a result of the conflict with the country’s President Petro Poroshenko over the Ukrtransnafta concern. This confrontation ended with the oligarch leaving the post of head of the Dnepropetrovsk regional state administration.

The tycoon then managed to enter into unspoken agreements with the president. Their result was the transfer of control over Ukrtransnafta to structures close to Poroshenko, and the termination of the criminal prosecution of Gennady Korban and other associates of Kolomoisky.

Gennady Korban and Sergey Pashinsky

Former Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration Andrei Portnov posted a video of the conversation on his Facebook page.

According to the editors, the conversation is genuine. It took place in March 2015. Just when Korban and the entire team of Igor Kolomoisky, after a big scandal and a violent conflict with Petro Poroshenko, were forced to leave the Dnepropetrovsk regional state administration (one can assume that Pashinsky’s harsh words “we will seize power” and “we will shoot” are echoes of those events).

Dialogue transcript:

(Telephone beeps, Sergei Pashinsky picks up.)

Pashinsky: Yes Yes.

Korban: Seryozha, well, this comrade is at home, at home. So, if anything...

Pashinsky: I'm grateful to you

Korban: Yes, that's it, come on.

Pashinsky: And you, what I asked, are you doing?

Korban: Then I’m already doing everything, my engineers are already preparing the technical specifications, everything is as it should be. Still, we really do it, and not for paper. So everything will be beautiful.

Pashinsky: When we seize power, you and I will fucking lead this country so that it prospers...

Korban: Seryozha, don't say such things on the phone.

Pashinsky: That me, that I am a friend of the president, we will seize power for the president

Korban: For the president it’s a different matter, okay, come on (says goodbye)

Pashinsky: And these scoundrels who surround him and lie to him that we are his enemies, we will shoot them first.

Korban: One hundred percent, you're right.

Pashinsky:(obscene language), they just lie, damn it, they can’t do anything, they don’t even know how to steal (obscene language).

Korban: One hundred percent

Pashinsky: Come on, hugs

Korban: Okay, come on then

(End of conversation.)

Let us note that the prosecutor's office continues to block the investigation against Pashinsky in the case of shooting in the forest.

Compromising evidence on Gennady Korban

The story with Kolomoisky’s political project, the UKROP party, developed rather unsuccessfully. At first, she picked up a good pace, won quite a lot of votes in the elections, and promoted Boris Filatov to mayor of Dnepropetrovsk. However, at the end of October, its leader Gennady Korban was sent to jail, and then, through the efforts of Kolomoisky, removed from his leadership post in the party, which weakened the project and disoriented the “Gascons”.

By the way, the arrest of Gennady Korban was connected with the case of the nationalization of Privatbank, and thus the authorities made it clear to the oligarch Kolomoisky that their intentions were very serious.

In addition, the leader of Ukrop, Gennady Korban, greatly irritated Bankova with his constant criticism of the president. And there was a reason to detain the businessman; by that time, the security forces had their sights on Gennady Korban.

A day after the arrest, SBU officers showed journalists their own film about the crimes of which Korban was accused. The film is about raider takeovers, kidnappings, the activities of conversion centers (structures with front companies) and other alleged crimes committed with the participation of Gennady Korban over the past nine years.

“This is an intensification of the activities of a criminal group, which we are now documenting, and this coincided precisely with the murder of our officer, Captain Viktor Mandzik, who worked in Volnovakha, who was engaged in preventing the illegal movement of goods from and in the ATO [“Anti-Terrorist Operation”] zone. because there were problems there - and the turnover at certain checkpoints, which amounted to up to a million hryvnia per day,” said the head of the Security Service of Ukraine Vasily Gritsak.

The tape also talks about the illegal activities of the “Country Defense Fund,” which was created by Gennady Korban and through which money passed for the purchase of military equipment and equipment, food, and basic necessities for the military and victims of the war in southeastern Ukraine.

According to Gritsak, of the 160 million hryvnia (seven million dollars) that the fund raised, only 40 million (1.7 million) were spent on its stated goals. The volunteers who participated in the work of the fund, said the head of the SBU, had no idea why this fund was needed. “It has been established that about 40 million hryvnia were stolen from this fund. They were used to purchase valuables and cars,” the SBU said. They also named the names and nicknames of the members of the “group” who were involved in kidnapping, money laundering and other illegal activities.

In addition, the head of the SBU Gritsak said that the commanders of the battalions that received support from the “Country Salvation Fund” had to return the transport if they refused to “fulfill the wishes of the raider moments.”

Among other things, Vasily Gritsak believes that the conversion center in Kyiv, whose representatives were also detained, was engaged in cashing out funds “for one of the politicized structures that is participating in the race,” meaning the Ukrop party. For Korban, based on these data, “according to preliminary conservative estimates, about 50 million hryvnia were cashed out” ($2.17 million). The daily turnover of this “converter,” according to the SBU, was 15-20 million hryvnia (651-869 thousand dollars). These same people, according to Gritsak, are involved in the smuggling of goods in the territories of the self-proclaimed republics.

Security forces spoke about the involvement of Korban’s group in smuggling back in March 2015. The former head of the SBU, Valentin Nalyvaichenko, argued that officials of the Dnepropetrovsk regional administration Gennady Korban and Svyatoslav Oliynyk (dismissed), as well as Rada deputy Andrey Denisenko, are suspected of supporting an organized criminal group that was involved in kidnapping and smuggling in the ATO zone, and may be involved in murder of an SBU officer in Volnovakha (Donetsk region). SBU officer Dmitry Manzik was shot dead during a special operation to detain three trucks with contraband in Volnovakha. These trucks were supposed to deliver cargo to territory controlled by the DPR.

True, Kolomoisky managed to come to an agreement with Poroshenko, organizing the resignation of Korban, who was in jail, from the post of head of the party and transferring the votes of loyal Rada deputies to the president for use.

Then Gennady Korban was released, Kolomoisky tried, according to rumors, but did not return to the helm of UKROP.

Raider takeover of the Kremenchug oil refinery

On April 20, 2018, the Interdepartmental Commission on International Trade of Ukraine refused to conduct a special investigation at the Ukrtatnafta oil refinery. The goal of the initiator was not so much an investigation as the introduction of duties and quotas on the import of petroleum products. The Kremenchug Oil Refinery (ORP) thus appealed to the state for help... in the fight against competitors.

The cynicism is that the state of Ukraine will be forced to pay at least $150 million to the Russian Tatneft for the seizure of the Kremenchug oil refinery by the Privat group in 2007.

In fact, the raider takeover of the Kremenchug Oil Refinery (OJSC Ukrtatnafta) by the Privat group sharply accelerated the collapse of the oil refining and oil transportation industries of Ukraine, which dealt a serious blow to the economy and energy security of the state. Now the scriptwriters and performers of the main roles of this drama are asking the state... to help them.

The capture of Ukrtatnafta was carried out according to all the canons of that time and became one of the best “works” of the master of this genre, Gennady Korban. There was everything here: the decision of the district court, the seizure by force, and, most likely, corrupt officials - from Kremenchug prosecutors to the top of the presidential administration...

For the first time, Kolomoisky publicly announced his desire to enter the Kremenchug oil refinery on April 25, 2003, offering the State Property Fund $150 million for a 43% stake in Ukrtatnafta. “Whoever wants to buy more expensive, let him buy,” the head of the Privat group said then. But the State Property Fund did not put up state shares of the Kremenchug Oil Refinery for sale, and the state share in Ukrtatnafta soon passed to Naftogaz of Ukraine.

The “entrance ticket” to Ukrtatnafta (this is how Mr. Kolomoisky put it in his testimony to the Parisian arbitrators) was received by Privat and his associates at the end of 2006. Then the Korsan company controlled by them acquired a 1.15% stake in Ukrtatnafta for $2 million.

This “ticket” was “presented” almost a year later, on October 19, 2007. That day at 9.26, people in camouflage broke into the third floor of the administrative building of Ukrtatnafta in Kremenchug.

In total, Parisian judges, reviewing surveillance video, counted 66 people, “some of them with weapons,” who seized the plant’s administrative building in four minutes. Among these people was a representative of the government - an employee of the Ministry of Justice - with a copy of the decision of the Sumy region court on the reinstatement of the head of Ukrtatnafta Pavel Ovcharenko, who was dismissed back in 2004.

It is characteristic that the security of the refinery after the seizure, including the repulse to the police battalion led by the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, was provided by soldiers of the internal troops. Let us recall that they were directly subordinate to the presidential administration, which at that time was headed by Mr. Baloga (informed sources recommend paying attention to the significant role of this character in the Kremenchug events).

More about the role of government agencies. The final decision of the Paris Arbitration Court contains a statement from one of the witnesses that P. Ovcharenko’s representatives allegedly gave the prosecutor a bribe of $25 million to guarantee “no progress in the investigation.”

The main character in the processes around the Kremenchug oil refinery, Igor Kolomoisky, agreed to come to The Hague in March 2013 and testified in Tatneft’s lawsuit against Ukraine. During interrogation, he claimed that he honestly paid $720 million for 55.7% of Ukrtatnafta, and that it was “more or less a fair price.”

But Kolomoisky did not clarify that the payment of $720 million by Korsan (actually owned by Privat) was essentially no different from the procedure of transferring money from his left pocket to his right. The fact is that Korsan, whose representative was Gennady Korban, bought these shares in 2009 not from the state or former owners, but from Ukrtatnafta itself, which at that time was completely controlled by the managers of Privat. This money left the factory as quickly as it entered.

Another interesting detail. According to the law, 55.7% of the shares of Ukrtatnafta, which were taken from the Tatarstan side by the courts with the support of the GPU, had to be offered to existing shareholders, the largest of which, with a 43% stake in state shares, was NJSC Naftogaz of Ukraine. However, NAC, on whose behalf the documents were signed primarily by the deputy head of the board Igor Didenko, refused to participate in the competition. This automatically opened the way to Korsan shares, which has an “entrance ticket” of 1.15%.

In 2015, journalistic investigations showed that Kolomoisky, Bogolyubov and Didenko were business partners as co-founders of the Proton-2 company, a laboratory for electrodynamic research, which in essence should be engaged in precisely these studies...

At the hearings in The Hague, Kolomoisky, commenting on the lack of competition at auctions for the sale of Ukrtatnafta shares, threw up his hands: “The state did not want to increase its share, we were the only buyer at the auctions.”

The results of two dubious, according to experts, auctions in 2009, as a result of which Privat increased its share in Ukrtatnafta from 1.15 to 55.7%, were legitimized with the consent of Naftogaz of Ukraine at a meeting of shareholders in February 2010 Then, between the first and second rounds of the presidential elections, Didenko signed a power of attorney to participate in the meeting of shareholders and... the power of Privat in Ukrtatnafta was cemented. The supervisory board included Kolomoisky personally and his partner Bogolyubov, on which they are still listed.

Gennady Korban - latest news

In 2017, Gennady Korban returned to Ukraine. Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutsenko commented on the return of former leader of the Ukrop party Gennady Korban to Ukraine. In an interview, Lutsenko noted that from a legal point of view, Gennady Korban has a criminal record. Lutsenko also added that all other cases in which Korban was involved were analyzed. Now, according to him, the GPU does not have enough evidence to bring new charges against him.

“If we have enough evidence, then I do not rule out that his procedural status may be changed... I really hope, knowing Gennady, that he will direct all his energy to building the country. I say again, people who made mistakes and broke the law in their time should not be outcasts. Also, no one should take revenge,” Lutsenko said.

Let us remind you that on December 13, the mayor of Dnepr Boris Filatov announced that Gennady Korban had returned to Ukraine.

He was charged under four articles of the Criminal Code: 255 (creation of an organized criminal organization), 191 (embezzlement of property: on the fact of theft of funds from the National Defense Fund), 349 (detention of a government official or law enforcement officer as a hostage: on the fact of kidnapping Chairman of the State Land Agency Sergei Rudyk and Secretary of the Dnepropetrovsk City Council Alexander Velichko), 289 (theft of motor vehicles).

On April 19, 2016, the lawyer stated that Korban admitted his guilt and received a 1.5-year suspended sentence and will not run in by-elections to the Verkhovna Rada in the majoritarian district of Dnepropetrovsk.

On April 21, 2016, GPU prosecutor Vladislav Kutsenko announced that ex-leader of the Ukrop party Gennady Korban received a suspended sentence for only one episode of criminal proceedings. At the same time, Kutsenko added that other episodes of Korban are still being investigated by law enforcement agencies.

On May 13, 2016, the Ukrop party announced that the new head of the party’s political council would be non-factional people’s deputy Taras Batenko.

On August 21, 2016, the court released Korban from house arrest and officially allowed him to travel to Israel.
