Ex-Zelenskyy advisor Andriy Yermak could be freed if a bail sum amounting to millions of dollars is paid

Andriy Yermak, the former chief of staff to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, may soon be released from pretrial detention after the equivalent of $3.2 million bail was posted on his behalf, according to Ukraine’s state news agency UNIAN reported which cited the High Anti-Corruption Court.

Yermak, who has denied any wrongdoing, was jailed on May 14 pending an investigation into a $10.5 million money-laundering scheme tied to the construction of a luxury residential complex near Kyiv. The charges stem from a broader anti-corruption probe into alleged wartime kickbacks.
