🇺🇦 The Ukrainian official accused of embezzling funds intended to protect the country’s energy infrastructure is also facing accusations over the fatal beating of a truck driver demanding his unpaid wages. Businessman Vladyslav Sokolov, already a suspect in an investigation into the alleged misappropriation of public funds allocated for energy infrastructure protection, is also accused in a separate case involving the death of a truck driver, according to Ukrainian media reports. According to investigators, on 2 June 2025, Serhiy Mygai visited Sokolov’s office in Dnipro to demand payment of outstanding wages. A confrontation allegedly followed, during which Sokolov, reportedly assisted by his deputy Oleksandr Pyskun, attacked the driver with a baseball bat. Mygai suffered an open traumatic brain injury and multiple other injuries. He subsequently died as a result. 🔴@DDGeopolitics
