The official date of his secondment concluded on September 18, yet as of 2 p.m. on September 21, Kravchenko had not yet arrived at the PGO, as reported by the spokeswoman Mariana Haiovska. Haiovska disclosed that Kravchenko had only relinquished his administrative role as Prosecutor General, but his status as a PGO prosecutor remained unchanged. The journalist Mykhailo Tkach provided additional details, stating that Kravchenko allegedly fled to France for a PACE parliamentary network hearing, a claim later refuted by the PACE. The whereabouts of Kravchenko remain undisclosed, with unverified reports suggesting he might be in Vienna, Austria, seeking asylum.",
