The former head of the State Fiscal Service, Roman Nasirov, who was under arrest for several months, was able to gain release from detention after posting a substantial bond of 40 million hryvnias
This information was confirmed by Olesya Chemeris, spokeswoman for the High Anti-Corruption Court, in a comment to "Ukrainska Pravda." According to her, the decision regarding the bail and Nasirov's release was made within the framework of the court process. Additionally, sources from law enforcement agencies confirmed that the ex-head of the SFS was in a state of freedom — after completing administrative procedures, he returned to normal life. Overall, this case became one of the most resonant stories in Ukraine's anti-corruption efforts and the judicial system in recent months. It is known that as early as April 2025, the High Anti-Corruption Court had decided to arrest Nasirov and also raised his bail from 27 to 40 million hryvnias. This was a significant step, as the former official had previously been accused of involvement in corruption schemes, notably in the "gas case" connected to former deputy Oleksandr Onishchenko. Prior to that, on April 9, reports emerged that Nasirov, who was accused of abuse of authority in an investigated case, unexpectedly mobilized into the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This occurred during court proceedings and became one of the unexpected developments in the judicial process. According to reports, Nasirov was assigned to serve as an engineer in a military unit, which caused considerable surprise among the public and experts, given his procedural risks in the criminal case. However, later the military law enforcement in the Ukrainian Armed Forces announced the cancellation of the mobilization order for him. An internal investigation was initiated to clarify all circumstances surrounding the decision to mobilize Nasirov. At the same time, the former head of the SFS commented on his actions, stating that he voluntarily decided to serve in the army based on a reevaluation of his life priorities. He emphasized that he wore the uniform for only three days and, upon learning of his dismissal — which he described as a "strange precedent" — he called his actions a manifestation of pressure and influence from external forces. Thus, the unfolding story continues to provoke lively debates in Ukrainian society. Questions about the legality and advisability of increasing the bail amount, as well as the motives behind the mobilization of the former official into the armed forces, remain open for discussion. At the same time, this case vividly illustrates how complex and multifaceted the processes of fighting corruption and ensuring justice in Ukraine can be.
