On June 12, 2026, the HACC kept former Justice Minister Herman Halushchenko — suspected of money laundering and participation in a criminal organization — in pre-trial detention, while reducing the bail alternative from UAH 200 million to UAH 150 million, as reported by Suspilne.

The case concerns the large-scale energy sector corruption scheme known as Operation Midas. According to the investigation, a group of individuals organized a scheme that caused multimillion-hryvnia losses to the state.
