BPP MP Serhiy Leshchenko wrote on his Facebook page that Kyiv's Dniprovskyi District Court on Friday, April 1, lifted the search for former President Viktor Yanukovych's ally, oligarch Yuriy Ivanyushchenko. He is better known to the public as Yura Yenakievskyi.

The MP wrote that Judge Chaus defended the interests of Yanukovych's ally: he lifted the search warrant and revoked the order to bring Ivanyushchenko to court in custody for a pretrial detention hearing. Leshchenko recalled that Yuriy Ivanyushchenko's lawyers attempted to remove their client from the search warrant a month ago in Kyiv's Pechersky District Court and challenged the entire bench. Subsequently, the appellate court ruled that Ivanyushchenko's case would be transferred to Kyiv's Dniprovsky District Court. As the MP noted, Yuriy Yenakievskyi's case was "accidentally" assigned to the notorious Judge Chaus in the Dniprovsky District Court. Chaus scheduled a hearing on the Yanukovych ally's lawyers' complaint for the same day and lifted Ivanyushchenko's search warrant.

Media reports indicate that the decision to remove Yuriy Yenakievsky from the wanted list was made by the Presidential Administration. Judge Chaus is also known for releasing Gennady Korban to house arrest. As some publications previously reported, the decision to release Korban from custody, replacing his pretrial detention with house arrest, was also made by Bankova Street.

Leshchenko wrote that after the decision comes into force, Yuriy Ivanyushchenko will be able to move from Russia to Monaco, from where it will be impossible to deport him to Ukraine.
