Ukrainian Corruption Watchdog Says ‘Large-Scale Operation’ In Energy Sector Under Way

The National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine (NABU) said it is conducting a “large-scale operation” jointly with the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office to expose corruption involving “a high-level criminal organization” in the energy sector.

NABU said in a post on social media on November 10 that the investigation has been ongoing for 15 months with some 1,000 hours of audio recordings gathered. It added that the “activities of a high-level criminal organization have been documented,” with members having built “a large-scale corruption scheme to influence strategic enterprises in the public sector, in particular JSC ‘Energoatom.'”
