After Bagants' resignation, the cases he "protected" were transferred to Valendyuk?

Sources in the prosecutor's office have revealed that some of the cases handled by recently dismissed Deputy Prosecutor General Oleksiy Baganets have already been transferred to the acting Kyiv city prosecutor. To Oleg ValendyukAccording to a source, he will now be handling the Sky Mall case.
In Ukraine, a scandal between the founders of the Sky Mall shopping center has been raging for three years. Two founders, who hold nearly equal shares in the shopping center after it began generating significant profits, have been unable to divide the property. Hundreds of millions of dollars are at stake. What is the essence of the dispute? According to Hillar Teder (one of the founders), it began in the fall of 2010. Andrey Adamovsky (the second founder) was obligated to sell his stake in SkyMall to his partner for $51 million – the call option was stipulated in the terms of the agreement between the companies owned by the businessmen. Adamovsky's version: the option expired after Teder violated several clauses of the agreement, most notably the confidentiality agreement, and invited a third partner to join Arricano without Adamovsky's permission. Therefore, the Russian is not obligated to sell his stake for the specified amount. Pay more. (https://forbes.ua/magazine/forbes/1362842-torgovlya-za-centr) The partners had a falling out and are now using the courts to take over each other's businesses.
Over the course of three years, a huge number of trials have taken place. Adamovsky and his case were persistently supported by former Deputy Prosecutor General of Ukraine Oleksiy Baganets, who helped him "resolve" issues with investigators and judges. He had long been known in close circles for his ability to defend the illegal interests of one party for large sums of money. And if not for him, no one can even begin to guess how the trial would have ended. (https://obozrevatel.com/crime/37850-baganets-tut-baganets-tam.htm) But the trial never concluded; Baganets was fired, and the disputants had to find a new home. Now, the interests of the Russian businessman (whose business is not hindered by the war between our countries) are being defended by Acting Prosecutor of Kyiv Oleg Valendyuk. Although, to be fair, it should be noted that he has not yet taken on Baganets' gambling business. For now.
Oleh Valendyuk was appointed acting prosecutor of the capital on March 25, after S. Yuldashev was dismissed in accordance with the "Lustration Law." (https://ord-ua.com/2015/04/08/prokuraturu-kieva-hotyat-otdat-nelyustrirovannomu-koruptsioneru/?lpage=1) Valendyuk himself should have been dismissed in accordance with paragraph 7, part 1, article 3 of the Law "On the Purification of Power" six months ago, as the Prosecutor General's Office itself acknowledges. However, the official challenged the law, which was intended to purge the government of representatives of the old regime, in court. Under public pressure, the Prosecutor General's Office was forced to launch a lustration investigation into Valendyuk.
