There is no official confirmation of this. At the same time, \u00abDumska\u00bb stated that it had seen a ruling by the Pecherskyi District Court of Kyiv authorising a search in proceedings concerning possible tax evasion, in which \u00abYugtrans-Terminal\u00bb LLC is mentioned.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\">\n<p><strong>Briefly about the main points<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The media have reported that Konstantin Tkach may leave the country following the investigation.<\/li>\n<li>The State Border Guard Service and the Security Service of Ukraine have not publicly confirmed that he crossed the border.<\/li>\n<li>\u00abDumskaya\u00bb links the search to the case under the tax evasion charge.<\/li>\n<li>According to the publication, Yugtrans-Terminal Ltd is mentioned in the ruling.<\/li>\n<li>\u00abHERTS\u00bb has denied that searches were carried out at its offices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The search warrant related to another legal entity<\/h2>\n<p>\u00abDumska\u00bb reported that it had received a copy of the ruling by the Pechersk District Court of Kyiv, authorising a search in connection with criminal proceedings concerning <em>Part 2 of Article 212<\/em> of the Criminal Code. This classification relates to possible tax evasion, rather than an established offence.<\/p>\n<p>According to the publication, the ruling mentions \u00abYugtrans-Terminal\u00bb LLC, whose founder is \u00abAvers\u00bb LLC, a company with foreign investment. The registered address given is 2A Yevreyskaya Street in Odesa. The media have not published the document\u2019s details that would enable it to be verified in the register of court decisions.<\/p>\n<p>\u00abYugtrans-Terminal\u00bb, \u00abHERTS\u00bb Ltd and \u00abFC HERTS\u00ab Ltd are separate legal entities. Their corporate links, as revealed in reports on investigative actions, can be traced through \u00bbAvers\u00ab.<\/p>\n<h2>The company denies that its offices were searched<\/h2>\n<p>\u00abHERTS\u00bb stated that the investigative operations took place at \u00abYugtransterminal\u00bb and were not linked to the company\u2019s activities. At the same time, sources speaking to \u00abDumskaya\u00bb claimed that several organisations linked to the \u00abHERTS\u00bb group operate from the building at 2A Yevreyskaya Street, and that searches were also carried out at the homes of some of the founders.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, the available reports do not deny the very fact that investigative measures were taken, but contain differing assessments as to whether they specifically affected the offices of GERTS Ltd. At the time of publication, there were no public statements from the BEB providing details of the proceedings.<\/p>\n<h2>Tkach\u2019s role within the group\u2019s financial structure<\/h2>\n<p>The financial statements of FC \u00abHERTS\u00ab Ltd for 2025 indicate that <strong>Konstantin Tkach<\/strong> is the ultimate beneficial owner of the company, with direct and decisive influence, and holds 91% of its authorised capital. The remaining 9% is held by GERTS LLC.<\/p>\n<p>FC \u00abHERTS\u00ab LLC holds the status of a payment institution and is licensed by the NBU to transfer funds without opening an account and to act as an acquirer of payment instruments. This corporate information confirms Tkach\u2019s role in one of the group\u2019s entities, but does not determine his procedural status in the current investigation.<\/p>\n<h2>The report on the border crossing remains a media claim<\/h2>\n<p>Reports that Tkach might leave the country via Palanka following the investigation were circulated by certain media outlets and local sources.
