Full UAH 20 mln bail paid for Mudra – HACC
Bail of UAH 20 million set by the court as an alternative to detention has been paid in full for former deputy head of the Office of the President Iryna Mudra, who is suspected in cases involving money laundering and raiding, the High Anti-Corruption Court (HACC) told Interfax-Ukraine.
Former deputy head of the Office of the President Iryna Mudra has fully paid a UAH 20 million bail set by the High Anti-Corruption Court (HACC) as an alternative to detention. The court confirmed the payment on Thursday. Initially, the HACC ordered Mudra's detention on August 25, with bail as an alternative. Despite Mudra's attempts to gather the funds, the bail had not been deposited in the HACC account until September 24 when the court found her rights had been violated.
The National Bank of Ukraine (NBU) was subsequently instructed to investigate why banks were rejecting the payment. The bank cited issues such as a lack of documentation about the funds' source, splitting payments into multiple transactions, and the use of shell companies. Mudra's defense requested a reduction to UAH 13 million, which was already transferred by September 28. The HACC maintained the bail amount and upheld Mudra's pretrial detention.
