As UNIAN reported earlier, in February a video was released showing two people, including one who looked like the son of the Interior Minister, Oleksandr Avakov, with what appeared to be the former deputy of the MIA, Serhiy Chobotar, as they were reportedly discussing the need to purchase backpacks for the MIA. It was also reported that Dniprovend Company was linked to Kharkiv resident Volodymyr Lytvyn, who is thought to be a friend of Avakov's son, Oleksandr.
