Italy seizes luxury yacht of co-organizer of billion-dollar scam of State Property Fund


In Italy, the yacht of one of the leaders of the criminal organization in the case of the former head of the State Property Fund of Ukraine Dmytro Sennychenko was discovered and arrested.

This is a premium yacht worth 5.5 million euros, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine reports.

“As part of the work of a joint investigative group, Italian law enforcement agencies arrested and seized the specified property,” the report says.

The valuable asset was arrested with the assistance of NABU detectives, Special Anti-corruption Prosecutor’s Office prosecutors, as well as representatives of law enforcement agencies in France and Italy.

Currently, law enforcement officers are taking measures to identify other property of the members of the criminal organization, as well as their search and extradition.

It will be reminded, that in November 2024, it became known that Andriy Hmyrin, a suspect in the billion-dollar State Prperty Fund scam, purchased a villa and a yacht abroad. We are talking about the Cranchi Settantotto 78 yacht, which costs about 5.5 million euros. The purchase was made by GFB COMPANY LTD, registered in the British Virgin Islands. The company is owned by Ukrainian businessman Yevhen Golovin, Gmyrin’s partner in Dubai.
