The SBU exposed the owner of an underground IT company who worked remotely for the Russian occupation administration in the Kherson region.
The person in question intentionally did not register the company with Ukrainian state institutions because he was collaborating with the enemy. To do this, he established contact with his old acquaintance, pro-Kremlin propagandist Mykhailo Shpira, who, according to the SBU, was sentenced in absentia to 10 years in prison.
Currently, Shpir is hiding in the Left Bank of the Kherson region, where he holds the "position of Deputy Minister of Digital Development and Mass Communications" of the Russian occupation administration.
It was from him that the defendant received his first order: to create a fake "human rights" resource that was supposed to discredit Ukrainian activists.
"During the period when the Gauleiter was actively engaged in recording the personal data of residents of the temporarily occupied region under the guise of digitizing services for the population, the defendant gave him a sample website to create various information resources on its basis," the SBU reports .
The defendant was also involved in developing Spier's personal website, which the collaborator used for his media "promotion" and dissemination of Kremlin propaganda.
In addition to working for the occupation "deputy minister" of the Kherson region, the defendant fulfilled more than 40 orders from Russian commercial companies.
To conceal payment from the Russians, the businessman used crypto wallets, and also received money through third parties from the countries of the former USSR.
Cyber experts and SBU investigators documented the defendant's crimes and detained him at his place of residence.
During searches of the detainee's office and home, as well as the residences of employees of the underground IT company, computer equipment, telephones, draft notes, and bank cards containing evidence of crimes were seized.
He is currently in custody and faces up to 12 years in prison with confiscation of property.
