NABU and SAPO Ask Interpol to Pursue Two Fugitive Suspects in 'Midas' Case

Prosecutors signal imminent steps in the energy-sector probe, citing weak financial‑monitoring support.

Overview

  • SAPO chief Oleksandr Klymenko confirmed that documents were sent to Interpol to place Tymur Mindich and Oleksandr Tsukerman on the wanted list.
  • It is not publicly known whether Interpol has issued red notices, and officials note such notices can be active without appearing on Interpol’s website.
  • Klymenko said progress is evident and the next development in the case is expected soon, without specifying planned actions.
  • Investigators report obstacles including complex international legal assistance and what Klymenko described as inadequate support from the State Financial Monitoring Service.
  • The probe targets an alleged scheme to influence state energy firms including Energoatom; five of seven suspects are detained, while Mindich and Tsukerman left Ukraine and were sanctioned in November.
