This week, the National Anti-Corruption Bureau arrested seven customs officials in the case of Vadim Alperin, an Odesa businessman who allegedly offered $800,000 in bribes to protect his import businesses. Zelenskiy wrote on Facebook on Wednesday that Alperin is ‘one of the godfathers of smuggling in Ukraine.” In response, Aperin’s lawyer said the fugitive would turn himself in for questioning. Among the arrested was Serhiy Tupalskiy, who ran the Odesa Customs Service until last March.
