Anti-corruption agency says it targets criminal group involving lawmaker, presidential staffers

The National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) in Ukraine has initiated a special operation to uncover a criminal organization allegedly led by a current and former Ukrainian lawmaker, as well as senior officials from the President's Office. The bureau plans to release further details in the coming days. In December, NABU charged five lawmakers from President Volodymyr Zelensky's Servant of the People faction with accepting money in exchange for parliamentary votes.

Additionally, in April, law enforcement sources revealed that the bureau had conducted searches at the premises of an aide to David Arakhamia, head of the Servant of the People faction.
