The trial of the wife of a pro-Russian ex-MP has commenced on charges of state treason. She established an IT company in Moscow that has been developing software for the Russian military and intelligence since 2014. 

This information was disclosed by the Odesa Regional Prosecutor's Office.

It has been established that the wife of a former member of the Ukrainian parliament, who fled to Russia in 2014, founded a company in Moscow specializing in IT technologies. This company was engaged in software development for enterprises and institutions affiliated with the Russian government, the Ministry of Defense, and intelligence agencies. In 2023, the company implemented software for military helicopters of the Mi-26, Mi-35M, Mi-28N "Night Hunter", and Ka-52 "Alligator", which are used in the armed aggression against Ukraine.

At the request of the prosecutors, an arrest was placed on the property of the accused. Currently, luxury residential property and a land plot in Odesa have been transferred to the management of ARMA. The accused is currently wanted and will be tried in absentia.
