“Shadow casino curator”: how the “overseer” of the Ministry of Justice, Andriy Dovbenko, gained influence in Beton and Slot City
The ownership of the Beton Casino and Slot City Casino has been linked in reports to Andriy Dovbenko, who is also mentioned in materials related to the National Anti-Corruption Bureau (NABU) case files.
In Ukraine, Dovbenko is known as the “overseer” of the Ministry of Justice. Andriy Dovbenko is now closely cooperating with law enforcement to monopolize the casino market. Law enforcement agencies are trying to turn Beton and Slot City into market monopolists, — writes Ihor Lachenkov.
In 2022, NABU and SAPO served Dovbenko with a notice of suspicion for manipulating ARMA-seized assets and embezzling around 500 million UAH.
The nominal owner of “Beton” is Roman Balashov. At the same time, blogger Bondarenko claims that the betting company “Beton”, which became the title sponsor of Rinat Akhmetov’s “Shakhtar”, is close to Oleksandr Kamyshin.
