The council paid 3.4 million ₴ to the "people's servant" Dubinsky, who has been in pre-trial detention for almost three years, - mass media.
This is according to the investigation of the "Schemes" project (Radio Liberty).
According to "Scheme", the payments were resumed after the council's regulatory committee discussed Dubinsky's letter with a request to calculate the salary, funds to carry out deputy powers and compensation for unused vacations.
In July 2026, the chairman of the committee, Salihi Kalashenko, reported on this appeal. The letter with the decision of the head of the council was sent to the committee.
During the hearing, Kalashnikov explained that the salary is calculated only for the working time, and "the fact that a people's deputy is in custody is not a circumstance that allows him to be paid a salary." This, according to him, applies to compensation for unused vacations. At the same time, according to Kalashnikov, the payments for the execution of the powers of a deputy, amounting to approximately 200,000 UAH per month, "are made all the time, during the entire period after the election of a person to the People's Deputy of Ukraine."
"Agreements" indicate that the committee confirmed this: unlike the salary, these payments are accrued for the mere possession of the mandate, regardless of whether the deputy can physically perform the position. According to the publication, none of the committee members present objected, the decision was taken unanimously.
Dubinsky is suspected of treason.
