  3. Under the Microscope: NACP and Public Scrutiny Focus on Assets of Head of Obukhiv STS of the Ministry of Internal Affairs

An analysis of tax reporting and open data has revealed a series of financial discrepancies in the declarations of Oleksandr Chyzh, head of the Territorial Service Center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 3244 in Obukhiv, and his family members. The questions regarding their property status cover the period from 2020 to 2025, encompassing significant monetary assets as well as the acquisition of expensive real estate and luxury vehicles.

The family’s financial balance for 2021 raises numerous questions among profile analysts. At the beginning of that year, the family declared 687,000 UAH in cash assets, while receiving 485,000 UAH in total income throughout the year. By the end of the reporting period, the volume of savings grew to 861,655 UAH.

Simple arithmetic indicates that approximately 310,000 UAH remained for potential purchases and household expenses before tax payments. Simultaneously, the official’s daughter, Anhelina Chyzh (Khomenko), officially became the owner of a 6,003-square-meter land plot valued at 490,000 UAH.

If the purchase was financed exclusively using the household’s declared funds in 2021, the budget deficit amounts to nearly 179,500 UAH. However, experts note an important caveat: the right to this real estate was recorded in the daughter’s possession in earlier declarations, which requires clarification regarding the exact date of the actual settlement.

Public attention was also drawn to the property acquisitions of the official’s relatives, specifically his unemployed son-in-law. In the revised declaration for 2020, information regarding vehicles was entirely absent, yet a separate notification recorded a Mercedes G63 SUV valued at 1.7 million UAH with an acquisition date of December 2, 2020. A detailed history of ownership by the end of the year and official confirmation of funding sources are necessary to rule out corruption risks.

«Declarations provide grounds for a targeted verification, not a predetermined verdict,» anti-corruption initiative experts point out.

The family’s financial situation becomes somewhat clearer in subsequent years, though it still requires documentary proof. In 2021, Mr. Khomenko declared 2.22 million UAH in cash and large proceeds from property sales. Specifically, 2 million UAH was described as income from a real estate sale executed back in 2020. Law enforcement agencies will need to establish the exact date of actual payment and the origin of that property.

Property trends in later reporting periods demonstrate a significant increase in cash flows. In 2025, the couple declared 5.39 million UAH in proceeds from the sale of movable property. Taking previous savings into account, subsequent vehicle purchases—namely Toyota Camry and Mercedes-Benz GLE models—are now fully covered arithmetically.

Nevertheless, several unresolved issues remain, requiring concrete answers from the official and his circle. These include why the owner of the trailer changed, who precisely financed the land purchase for the daughter, and what primary documents support Khomenko’s early million-hryvnia sales. Complete answers to these questions will either definitively clear up suspicions or serve as grounds for further legal decisions.
