Vitaliy Arishonkov, who until recently headed one of the departments of the information analysis department at the Bureau of Economic Security (BES) and managed the agency's trade union, has left his position. As the BES informed the publication "Skhemy" in response to a request, the dismissal took place based on his application by mutual agreement of the parties.
The Bureau emphasised that this decision is the "exclusively personal will" of the employee. They noted that it is not related to either the journalistic investigation, which mentioned a significant amount of valuable property in the Arishonkov family (specifically, assets of the father of a People's Deputy), or the internal review conducted at the institution after the publication of this data.
The agency also clarified that the conducted review did not reveal signs of a disciplinary offence by the employee. Arishonkov's dismissal took place on the eve of a scheduled interview on integrity issues.
