The SAPO prosecutor set out the risks cited to justify a preventive measure for Oleksandr Dydych.

• Absconding from the investigation and the court: investigators established that Dydych and his family hold a substantial amount of property and financial assets, which could facilitate his flight. The prosecutor also stressed that the case file contains evidence that, through their connections, Kropyva and Dydych could obtain visas abroad, including to the United States.
• Risk of distorting items and documents: as with the other suspects in Carthage Operation, the investigation stresses that after the July exposure of the case over prosecutors' purchase of apartments in the Carpathians, Kropyva and his accomplices began acting to destroy documents. Investigators established that Dydych arranged the wiping of the Kutsyi family's phones. During searches at Dydych's office, distorted documents (payment receipts) relating to the case materials were also found in the trash.
• Risk of unlawfully influencing witnesses: the investigation is convinced that, through Dydych and Kropyva's family ties, the suspect could influence witnesses to exonerate himself and Kropyva.
• Risk of otherwise obstructing the criminal proceedings: investigators recorded conversations in which Kropyva tried to influence numerous state officials (including at the State Tax Service, on the matter of fictitious individual entrepreneurs). Dydych was responsible for the accounting records and helped distort the income data of individual entrepreneurs.
• Risk of committing another criminal offense: there is evidence that Dydych could continue to help conceal the “re-registration” of Kropyva's property, since he knows and kept the books on all of Kropyva's income.
