"Proved": Gennady Laguta died, who was managed by the Kherson Regional State Administration at the beginning of the Russian invasion

"Former head of the Kherson Regional State Administration Gennady Laguta passed away. We express our sincere condolences to the deceased family and share her grief. We understand the bitterness of the loss of all who knew, loved and respected Gennady Nikolaevich," - wrote in Kherson. Journalists of the local edition "Bridge", with reference to their sources, report that Laguta died at night in one of the Kiev hospitals. He was 49 years old. The causes of death were not officially reported.

The deputy of the Kherson Regional Council from Europe Sergey Khlan wrote on his Facebook that Laguta allegedly committed suicide, drinking a large portion of tablets. According to the politician, the expert of the Kherson Regional State Administration decided to such a step because of the accusation of Kherson's surrender. Khlan believes that the accusations were groundless.

"Do you know that Laguta is the only one who did not escape from Kherson? What did he secured the export of documents and evacuation of people, lock electronic keys? Do you know? I think," - wrote Khlan. We will remind, on July 9, 2022, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy dismissed the head of the Kherson region Gennady Laguta and appointed a temporary acting act.

In February 2023, the Security Service declared the former chairman of the Kherson Regional State Administration suspected of two articles: fraud and forgery. According to the investigation, Laguta was given a large -scale invasion of Russia at the beginning of a full -scale invasion of Russia Highlander, which belonged to local entrepreneurs Olena Saviniy. The SBU believes that the official appealed to Savina to give him the SUV for free use "for service purposes".

In July 2022, Laguta forged a power of attorney from the car owner. And in September, on the basis of the fake document, "sold" the car to its subordinate, the head of the patronage service of Kherson Ova Andriy Zaitsa. The next day "resold" the car to his supervisor. Then the former chairman of the Kherson Regional State Administration registered the car in his name. Currently, the vehicle has been seized. During the examination, it was found that a fake signature was placed on a notarial order.
