What Iryna Korymshkina is suspected of

In October 2024, the SAP and NABU notified 46-year-old Iryna Korymshkina of her suspicion of illegal enrichment. According to the investigation, the MP purchased a house for 20 million UAH in 2021-2022, while her savings at that time did not exceed 2.7 million UAH.

That same month, the court imposed a preventive measure in the form of personal surety for Iryna Korymshkina. The sureties included the head of the "Servant of the People" faction in the Verkhovna Rada, Davyd Arahamia, and the head of the Mykolaiv OVA, Vitaliy Kim.

In January 2025, Iryna Korymshkina was charged with another suspicion—deliberately providing false information in her declaration.

Shortly thereafter, a suspicion was also announced against her husband, businessman Yuriy Korymshkin, who is suspected of false declaration and legalization of his wife's assets. The VAKS imposed a preventive measure in the form of a 15 million UAH bail for Yuriy Korymshkin.
