Manipulation around the SE "Rykchalske": the position of the State Property Fund

The information spread in some media about the alleged mass death of livestock at the enterprise after the change of management is not true.

The State Property Fund of Ukraine keeps the situation under control.

To verify the facts, a meeting was held with the participation of Deputy Chairman of the SPFU Ihor Shepetin and Yuliia Yusupzhanova, Head of the Zhytomyr Regional State Administration Vitalii Bunechko, SSU , National Police, State Food and Consumer Service, Regional Office of the SPFU and the management of the enterprise.

Representatives of the Fund together with law enforcement authorities inspected the land, production base and livestock – no violations or facts of mass death of livestock were established.

The cattle are in good condition.

Instead, we see signs of information speculation and manipulation by interested parties who are related to the previous management of the enterprise. The dissemination of false information appears to be an element of a corporate conflict and an attempt at a raider influence on the state enterprise.

The State Property Fund of Ukraine takes the situation under personal control together with the regional department and in cooperation with law enforcement agencies.

We call on the media to use verified information and not to become a tool of manipulation. We are ready to provide information on relevant requests from the media.
