On May 11, 2026, the NABU and the SAPO exposed former Presidential Office Head Andrii Yermak for laundering UAH 460 million through elite construction near Kyiv. He was served with a suspicion notice under Article 209(3) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine — laundering of criminally obtained property committed by an organized group or on a particularly large scale.

According to NABU's published video, the case concerns the construction of elite estates in Kozyn near Kyiv, known as the "Dynasty" project. 

The investigation established that the project was carried out between 2021 and 2025 using funds derived from a criminal organization's activities, including corruption schemes at Energoatom.

The investigation traces the origins of the scheme to 2018. The key figure alongside the former Presidential Office head — referred to as "R2" in the investigative materials — is a person codenamed "Che Guevara," identified as former Minister for Communities and Territories Oleksii Chernyshov.

• In 2019, Bloom Development LLC, linked to the suspects' circle, purchased over 4 hectares of land in Kozyn. The total construction footprint later grew to 8 hectares, with an estimated market value of over $6 million.

• The plan envisaged four named residences (R1–R4), each approximately 1,000 sq. m., plus a shared recreational complex ("R-zero") with a spa and pool. The cost of a single residence was approximately $2 million.

NABU's video also states that when the construction became publicly known, the suspects attempted to conceal their involvement and shield the assets from potential seizure. 

Detectives and prosecutors conducted an on-site inspection of the estate. The investigation documented that pressure was applied to one of the experts to prevent him from carrying out an examination. The NABU and the SAPO opened criminal proceedings in connection with this fact.

The HACC seized the assets and land plots — specifically, five unfinished construction sites of the Dynasty residence.

According to the investigation, the scheme used two parallel financing systems to conceal the funds' origin.

• First, a housing construction cooperative called "Sunny Shore" was established, channeling approximately 10% of the funds through it to create the appearance of legitimate contributions. In reality, the money came from shell companies and pharmaceutical firms.
• Second, the bulk of expenses were covered in cash, delivered through trusted intermediaries and assistants directly to the construction sites.

The investigation alleges that construction financing drew in part on resources from a so-called "laundry" coordinated by a figure codenamed "Karlsson," with funds accumulated through large-scale corruption schemes, particularly in the energy sector.

Notably, after the full-scale invasion in 2022, construction did not slow — it accelerated. The suspects demanded around-the-clock shifts. In July 2025, following NABU's first procedural actions, construction was urgently "mothballed" until better times.
