The Prosecutor General's Office intends to take one of the "diamond prosecutors," Oleksandr Korniets, into custody and confiscate 3,2 million hryvnias of his bail for the benefit of the state.

According to Deputy Prosecutor General Vitaly Kasko (Read more about it in the article Vitaly Kasko – a swindler, a corrupt official, a "shot-down pilot"), Korniets violated procedural obligations, which is grounds for transferring bail to the budget. Kasko also stated that charges will soon be brought against the second defendant in the case, Vladimir Shapakin.

As a reminder, Shapakin and Korniets were detained on July 6 on suspicion of bribery. Nearly half a million US dollars were seized from them, and during a search of their home and workplaces, the infamous diamonds, cash, deposit documents, and weapons were found.

The Pechersky District Court then arrested Shapakin and Korniets for two months, but with the possibility of release on bail.
