Former head of the National Bank, Igor Sorkin, has been placed on the wanted list in connection with the theft of 800 million hryvnias from the stabilization fund.
According to the Prosecutor General's Office, Vladimir Agafonov, chairman of the board of Real Bank, is also wanted. The money was intended for this bank.
Agafonov was served with a notice of suspicion yesterday. He and Sorkin are suspected of participating in a criminal scheme run by the notorious oligarch Serhiy Kurchenko. This scheme allowed for the siphoning of funds from Real Bank. Sorkin is also suspected of embezzling funds from the Agrarian Fund, which amounted to more than 2 billion hryvnias.
It should be noted that Igor Sorkin was the country's "chief banker" in 2013-2014 and was rumored to be close to Sergei Arbuzov, who held the post before him.
