Restrictive Measures Extended for Tetiana Krupa
The High Anti-Corruption Court has extended the restrictive measures imposed on Tetiana Krupa, the former head of the Khmelnytskyi Regional Medical and Social Expert Commission (MSEC). While she has been granted permission to travel freely within Ukraine, this freedom comes with significant limitations. Krupa is suspected of illicit enrichment and other corruption-related crimes. This case highlights the ongoing judicial scrutiny of officials in Ukraine's healthcare administration.
Suspicions and Specific Limitations
The court has ruled that Tetiana Krupa must inform an investigator, prosecutor, or court of any change in her residence. She is also required to surrender her passport for foreign travel and any other documents used for crossing borders, excluding her internal Ukrainian passport. Furthermore, the suspect is prohibited from leaving the territories of Khmelnytskyi, Ternopil, Ivano-Frankivsk, Zakarpattia, Lviv, Kyiv regions, and the city of Kyiv without prior authorization.
Previously, the court had confined Krupa's movement to these same regions and Kyiv. In October 2024, she was permitted to move freely within Khmelnytskyi and Ternopil regions. By October 2025, the prosecutor's office had completed its investigation, alleging that Tetiana Krupa illicitly enriched herself by 160 million Ukrainian hryvnias between 2020 and 2024. A portion of these funds was allegedly laundered through a fictitious real estate sale and transferred abroad.
Krupa faces suspicion under several articles of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, including:
- Part 2 of Article 209 (money laundering)
- Part 2 of Article 366-2 (submitting false information in a declaration)
- Article 368-5 (unlawful enrichment)
Since September 2025, she has remained at large under a preventive measure in the form of a bail set at 20 million hryvnias.
This case is part of a broader campaign by Ukrainian law enforcement agencies to combat corruption. – Source unknown
The allegations against Tetiana Krupa and her potential ties to corrupt schemes in the medical sector raise concerns about the transparency and integrity of state institutions. The outcome of this investigation could set a significant precedent for future actions in similar cases, as Ukraine continues its anti-corruption reforms.
