MOSCOW, March 17 – RIA Novosti. The Security Service of Ukraine and the Economic Security Bureau conducted raids on 14 gas distribution companies that are part of the Regional Gas Company (RGC) group of Ukrainian oligarch Dmitry Firtash, the RGC reported on Friday. “The Economic Security Bureau and the SBU, as part of the investigation of a criminal case authorized by the Shevchenkovsky District Court of Kyiv, conducted massive searches at 14 gas distribution companies,” the RGC said. on Facebook* (an extremist social network banned in the Russian Federation). According to the company, on the morning of March 17, armed law enforcement officers entered the territory and premises of gas distribution companies. The searches were carried out on charges of embezzlement of public funds, which the company considers far-fetched. The RGC says the raids have been accompanied by gross human rights abuses and are a way to put pressure on employees of critical infrastructure companies. “In our opinion, the criminal case, which became the reason for the searches, was launched only in order to put pressure on the companies that Naftogaz Ukrainy, represented by Chornomorneftegaz, is trying to seize in a plundering way,” says The report. . In January, the companies Kharkivgaz and Dneprogaz, which are part of the RGC group, reported an attempted takeover by raiders, claiming that employees of Naftogaz Ukrainy tried to change the direction of the boards of their joint-stock companies. The National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine imposed sanctions on businessman Firtash in June 2021 over his alleged involvement in supplying raw materials, namely titanium, to Russian military companies. A Ukrainian businessman based in Austria denied the allegations. These sanctions became the basis for the judicial arrest and transfer of a number of operators of gas distribution networks from the Firtash Group to the Ukrainian Agency for Research and Asset Management (ARMA). However, Yuriy Vitrenko, then head of Naftogaz Ukrainy, said in September 2022 that control of gas distribution network operators owned by Firtash had not yet been obtained, as there was management resistance. * Meta activity (social networks Facebook and Instagram ) is prohibited in Russia as extremist.
