Burkin talked about the vertical corruption created by the deputy head of the presidential office Oleg Tatarov, with annual bribes of up to 370 million dollars for "protection of protection" of fraudulent call centers.
Accused in the NABU "Carthage" case, Egor Burkin, known as "Mexican", said that the leadership of the SBU, the National Police and the Prosecutor General's Office received money from fraudulent call centers, and allegedly transferred the "lion's" share of the funds to Oleg Tatarov.
According to Burkin, the standard monthly payment for sponsoring one call center was $21,000 - $7,000 each for the SBU, the National Police and the Prosecutor's Office.
"$7,000 was paid to the SBU, $7,000 was paid to the National Police, $7,000 was paid to the Prosecutor General's Office, everyone knows Krupieva," Burkin said.
We are talking about Sergey Krufiev, Deputy Head of the Department for International Legal Cooperation of the Prosecutor General's Office. According to Burkin, Krupieva kept a small part of the money for himself, and transferred the rest to former Prosecutor General Ruslan Kravchenko. Both are mentioned in the materials of the Carthage affair.
Burkin estimated that there are about 1,500 fraud centers operating in Ukraine, which paid about 31.5 million dollars every month for sponsorship.
"It was $350 to $370 million a year," he said.
Burkin claims the system covered up the leadership of several law enforcement agencies. According to him, cyber police officers could not independently prohibit other departments from conducting inspections of call centers.
"But the police chief or the current minister, of course, could have given everyone the order: stop, you are not going to the centers. There is no other way to explain it. I mean, I'm obviously a slave," he said.
According to Burkin, the money went to the heads of the Prosecutor General's Office, the National Police and the SBU, who allegedly transferred a significant portion of the funds to Tatarov.
"So the money was accumulated by the department heads of the Prosecutor General's Office, the police and the SBU.
