SBU Major General Serhii Duka wrote a letter from the pre-trial detention center. He declared retaliation by NABU, a conflict of interest in the investigation and proposed a public hearing.
In an open letter published by his lawyer Yuri Sokhov, Duka denies his guilt and declares that he will prove his innocence. According to him, there is a conflict of interest in the NABU investigation, because the petition to choose preventive measures against him was prepared by detective Roman Nadov, who was allegedly searched by Duka last year.
Duka says he was told almost immediately that he would be in pre-trial detention no less than NABU detective Ruslan Magmadrasolov, who was arrested by the SBU last year and spent four months in pre-trial detention.
"Blinded with a thirst for revenge, they are ready to destroy what Ukraine has been building for years: the national security system, intelligence networks, unique operational training," Duka writes.
He criticized the video and audio recordings released by the anti-corruption authorities and called for their authenticity to be verified. Separately, Duka suggested that NABU director Semyon Kribonos and SAP head Oleksandr Klimenko hold a public hearing and answer the people's deputies' questions. NABU and SAP have not publicly commented on Duka's statements at this time.
Seri Duka is the former deputy head of the National State Defense Department of the SBU. He appears in the "Carthage" case: according to the investigation, Duca covered a criminal organization involved in fraud centers, drug trafficking and other crimes. On November 6, the court sent him to detention for 60 days on an alternative bail of UAH 65 million.
