Yuriy Kasyanov Unveils Truth About Fire Point Case and Government’s Efforts to Silence Him
On Sunday, October 12, military expert and drone specialist Yuriy Kasyanov made a sensational statement that has sent shockwaves through Ukraine’s political and military landscape.
He disclosed his involvement as a whistleblower in a case linked to the National Anti-Corruption Bureau and the company Fire Point, claiming that this led to targeted pressure from the authorities.
Kasyanov identified himself as a key informant and stated that his testimonies and related circumstances initiated the liquidation of his unit, which he described as a necessary step in combating corruption and abuse of power.
The military expert appealed to NABU for protection under the witness protection program, expressing fears for his safety and that of his family.
According to Kasyanov, the decision to disband his unit was personally made by President Volodymyr Zelensky, a fact confirmed by sources close to him.
He also explained that he tried to convince the country’s leadership not to worsen the situation and even raised a white flag in attempts to preserve the effective unit and avoid repression.
Kasyanov further reported that his current status is detention at a border unit where he’s confined to the barracks and guarded as a suspect of evasion.
This scandal highlights the seriousness of the fight against corruption and political pressure in Ukraine, especially ahead of crucial decisions that could impact efforts to combat crime and protect witnesses.
