The term of his duties was extended until 28.05.2024 inclusive.

According to the prosecution, he received the money through an intermediary, lawyer Oleg Goretsky. The most significant bribe was given by Ukrainian oligarch Konstantin Zhevago for the Supreme Court's decision in his favor to purchase a 40.19% stake in the Poltava Mining and Processing Plant.
The indictment against the former Chief Justice was sent to court on March 4. The case is currently undergoing a preparatory hearing. The next hearing is scheduled for April 22, 2024.
