Judge of the liquidated OASK Arina Litvinov has Russian citizenship - investigation (screenshots)

Despite the liquidation of the court in December 2022, Litvinov has the current status of the judge and receives wages. In 2023, it declared more than UAH 1. 6 million. In July 2002, the judge of the liquidated district administrative court of Kyiv (OASK) became a citizen of the Russian Federation in July 2002. As of that time, she worked in the High Arbitration Court of Ukraine for three years. Litvinova's Russian citizenship was learned by the reports of the Scheme.

Investigators have an excerpt from the Rospasport automated system for December 2022, which indicates that the judge received the document on July 24, 2002. The reason for the acquisition of citizenship is the replacement of the passport of a citizen of the USSR. According to the State Service portal, as of April 2024, a Russian passport, in the name of Arina Litvinova is invalid. The woman did not replace him with a new one after she was 45 years old in 2022.

However, not receiving a new passport does not mean the loss of Russian citizenship. Journalists found Litvinova's questionnaire on the website of the High Qualifications Commission of Judges, which she completed in 2018, when she was qualified. When asked if she has another state's citizenship, Litvinov answered: "No. " Litvinov's "Scheme" to the question about the presence of Russian citizenship was answered briefly: "This is some provocation.

" Then she put the phone and no longer answered the following calls. In addition, the citizenship of the Russian Federation also have the parents of Litvinova. The judge's mother refused to communicate with journalists, and his father called the journalist as a "provocateur" in response to the "schemes" about the circumstances of the daughter of a Russian citizenship. Arina Litvinov declared UAH 1. 6 million in 2023.

Despite the fact that the OASK was liquidated in December 2023, the judges who worked there are waiting for retraining and retaining judicial status, and also receive a salary. In 2020, the Public Integrity Council gave a negative conclusion about Judge Arina Litvinova. In conclusion, it adopted actions caused by political motives and convincingly did not explain the sources of origin of the property.

In particular, Litvinova satisfied the lawsuit of the owner of Dynamo football club Igor Surkis about recognizing him and a number of people related to Privatbank. The Bank had to pay the plaintiffs UAH 1 billion. Later, the Supreme Court of Ukraine reversed this decision. We will remind that in September 2022 the journalists of "Scheme" found at the chairman of the Cassation Economic Court of the Supreme Court of Ukraine Bohdan Lviv a Russian passport, which he received in 1999 in Moscow.
