At the request of the State Bureau of Investigation (SBI), Interpol has placed the former head of the Main Directorate of Internal Security of the Security Service of Ukraine Andriy Naumov on international wanted list, the SBI reports.
“On August 26, 2024, a red alert was published in the records of the General Secretariat of Interpol”, – it is said in the message of the Bureau in the Telegram channel on Wednesday.
According to the SBI, the former official is suspected of fraudulently taking over UAH 3.2 million during his tenure as the head of a state-owned enterprise in 2019-2021.
The agency reminds that the former SBU general was detained on June 7, 2022, while trying to get from Serbia to North Macedonia in a vehicle that contained EUR592,000, $120,000 and two precious stones.
As reported, the court in Serbia rejected the request to extradite Naumov to Ukraine. Convicted in Serbia to a year in prison for money laundering, Naumov was released in January 2024.
In June 2024, the SBI notified the ex-head of the SBU GUVB of suspicion of forging documents for a Serbian court.
