n April 2017 the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) started an undercover operation to embed the special agent to an organized criminal group consisting of current and former officials of the State Migration Service of Ukraine (SMSU). According to the operational data, upon prior conspiracy, the officials of the SMSU demanded and received funds for providing to foreigners the citizenship of Ukraine, certificates for temporary residence in Ukraine, as well as for quickening the production of biometric passports for Ukrainian citizens.
The strain of the network of participants in a criminal organization required an increased conspiracy. According to the Article 8 of the Law of Ukraine "On Operative Investigative Activity" and the Article 272 of the Criminal Procedural Code of Ukraine, the NABU undercover agent had a special task to become embedded to the criminal organization.
