Igor Mazepa and his brother Yuri are not the first defendants in the case of allegedly illegal appropriation of land near the Kyiv hydroelectric power station. On January 19, the Pechersk court of the capital sent them under arrest with bail of UAH 349 million and UAH 44 million, respectively. On January 23, the Kiev Court of Appeal reduced Igor Mazepa’s bail to UAH 21 million, which he paid and left the pre-trial detention center.
Other defendants were not so lucky. Since the end of November, the co-founder of the cottage town Riviera Village, Sergei Slyusarenko, has been behind bars. Together with another entrepreneur Vladimir Limakov, 16 years ago they created this elite cottage community. At the same time as Slyusarenko, two top managers and a Riviera Village lawyer also ended up in pretrial detention. They were assigned bail from UAH 8 million to UAH 75 million.
