“After receiving NABU’s petition for the extradition of individuals to Ukraine, a number of procedural and technical deficiencies were identified during its processing,” she stated.
Haievska-Kovbasyuk noted that the Attorney General’s Office, together with NABU, has worked on and supplemented the 24 volumes of materials, as well as prepared and translated the text of the request.
“After the final elimination of deficiencies and errors, the request for extradition has been sent to the Ministry of Justice of the State of Israel,” emphasized the press secretary of the Attorney General’s Office.
What preceded
Abakumov previously stated that NABU sent all materials for Mindich’s extradition to the Attorney General’s Office.
At the same time, he noted that they have still not been signed, although the documents have been there for two weeks. The detective also expressed hope that the Attorney General’s Office would sign them soon.
The “Midas” case
Recall that Timur Mindich is a Ukrainian businessman, former co-owner of the “Kvartal 95” studio, who is currently wanted. He is linked to a large-scale corruption scandal in the energy sector (the so-called “Mindichgate” or “Midas” operation).
In November 2025, just hours before the searches, Mindich left Ukraine. Subsequently, journalists located him in Israel. During communication with the media, Mindich referred to the case as a “media case” and denied any wrongdoing.
It should be noted that NABU exposed the activities of a criminal group that included officials and businessmen in November of last year. Using official connections, the participants controlled personnel decisions, procurement processes, and the movement of finances within the company.
As law enforcement officials found out, the group members took kickbacks from the contractors of “Energoatom.” Later, the money obtained illegally was laundered in a special office.
