Accused in the NABU "Carthage" case, Egor Burkin, announced direct contacts with SBU General, Sergey Duka on issues of "protection of protection" for fraudulent call centers.
The head of the "Kimprom" drug cartel, known under the nickname "Mexican", claims that "for the sake of the work of all call centers" he interacted directly with SBU General Sergey Duka and the deputy head of the main directorate "D" of the Department of National State Protection of the SBU, Alexander Kovalchuk.
According to Burkin, they then appointed Andrey Osipov, known as a "criminal", as an intermediary to avoid documenting direct contacts.
"Initially I was in direct contact with Kovalchuk and Duka. After that, they installed an Osipov-shaped seal, so that, as I understand it, they would not be recorded," Burkin said.
According to him, he met with the employees of the National State Defense Department of the SBU back in 2019, when criminal proceedings were opened against him.
We will remind you that SBU General Sergei Duka is also involved in the NABU "Carthage" case related to the activities of an organized crime group, whose members, according to investigators, were involved in the "protection of protection" of fraudulent call centers and other illegal enterprises.
Earlier, SBU Major Sergei Duka was released from the pre-trial detention center after posting bail of 65 million hryvnias.
Duka himself accused NABU and SAPO leadership of retaliation and stated that he had evidence of corruption in anti-corruption agencies.
