Stella Mindich, the mother of Timur Mindich, who is suspected of corruption in the energy sector, has bought three apartments in Kyiv in recent years. And Oleksandra Fursenko, the wife of Igor Fursenko, a figure in the NABU tapes, acquired an apartment in Kyiv for $400,000 in 2024

As reported by "Hvylya", this was stated in a hromadske report.

In recent years, close relatives of individuals involved in high-profile corruption cases have been actively buying up luxury real estate in the capital and purchasing expensive cars.

Mindich's mother registered three apartments in her name

Stella Mindich, the mother of Timur Mindich, who is suspected of corruption in the energy sector, has become the owner of three apartments in Kyiv in recent years. One of them is located in a building on Hrushevskoho Street, 9-A. This apartment, with an area of 214 square meters, came into the woman's ownership back in 2020.

Two more apartments in the elite residential complex "Metropol" were registered to Stella Mindich in 2023. Their total area is almost 200 square meters. At minimum market prices at that time, the cost of such property was about $600,000.

According to the documents, the woman paid only 2 million 967 thousand hryvnias for both apartments, which is approximately $80,690 - much less than the market price.

Stella Mindich acquired the apartments from the developer of the residential complex — LLC "SKYPROJECT". This firm belongs to Oleksandr Glimbovsky, who is the father-in-law of the former head of the SFS, Roman Nasirov.

Wife of NABU tapes figure Fursenko bought housing for $400,000

Oleksandra Fursenko, the wife of Igor Fursenko, who is a figure in the NABU tapes, acquired an apartment in Kyiv worth $400,000 in 2024.

56-year-old Igor Fursenko, also known as "Reshyk" from the NABU recordings, is an entrepreneur in the field of informatization consulting. According to journalists, in other users' phone books, his number is saved as "Igor, Mykhailo Tsukerman's employee".

The investigation calls Igor Fursenko the accountant of the so-called "back office". According to the investigation, it was he who said on the NABU recordings that carrying $1.6 million around Kyiv was "a pleasure".

Six months before he was served with a notice of suspicion, in April 2025, Igor Fursenko purchased a new car - a 2023 Porsche Macan. The cost of such a car can currently exceed $60,000, which is over 2.5 million hryvnias.

In 2019, Igor Fursenko divorced his wife Tetyana. His new wife is Oleksandra Fursenko, maiden name Logacheva.

The woman is also a sole proprietor and is engaged in consulting on commercial activities and management. Judging by open data, Oleksandra previously lived in Cherkasy.

In September 2023, Oleksandra Fursenko acquired a 2023 Audi Q8. The cost of such a car can exceed $70,000 and reach $100,000, depending on the configuration — this is from 3 to 4 million hryvnias.

In June 2024, Oleksandra became the owner of an apartment and a parking space in the center of the capital. The apartment is located in a private club-style building and has an area of 267 square meters.

Currently, an apartment 100 square meters smaller is for sale in the same building, and its price is $400,000. An apartment that is 30 square meters larger than Fursenko's home costs $1 million.

Oleksandra Fursenko acquired her 267-square-meter apartment for exactly $400,000 (16 million 200 thousand hryvnias), which is significantly cheaper than market offers.

The apartment was sold to her by Natalia May - the wife of the former co-owner of the "Roshen" company.

It was previously reported that the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine and the Specialized Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office conducted a large-scale operation "Midas", within which they uncovered an influential criminal organization operating in the energy sector.

Businessman Timur Mindich is named as the leader of the scheme - he is a co-owner of the "Kvartal-95" studio and was previously a business partner of President Zelenskyy. The investigation alleges that Mindich had influence over former Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko and former Defense Minister Rustem Umerov.

We also wrote that NABU seized "interesting documents" in the Mindich case worth hundreds of millions.

Eight people have received notices of suspicion in the case. According to law enforcement sources, they include:

  • businessman and co-founder of the "Kvartal-95" studio Timur Mindich (referred to in the bureau's materials as "Karlson"),
