Verkhovna Rada deputies Andrii Kozhemiakin and Mykola Tomenko of the Bloc of Yulia Tymoshenko have asked the Prosecutor General's Office to probe the allegation of forged documents that concern representatives of Vanco Prykerchenska company (Virgin Islands).
Ukrainian News learned this from the BYT press service.
Kozhemiakin and Tomenko highlight the possibility that statutory documents of Vanco Prykerchenska might have been forged.
They point to the facts voiced in the television program "Warning" on the First National Channel on June 30.
As Ukrainian News earlier reported, by his decree No.566/2008 of June 18, President Viktor Yuschenko suspended Cabinet Directive No.740 of May 21 on withdrawal from the product sharing agreement with Vanco International.
On May 21, the government cancelled its directive No.828 of October 3, 2007 approving the draft agreement with Vanco International on sharing products from the Kerch shelf.
The Cabinet of Ministers declared Vanco International, a subsidiary of Vanco Energy Company (United States), the winner of the competition for the right to develop oil and gas deposits in the Prykerchenskyi block on the Black Sea continental shelf in April 2006.
The Cabinet of Ministers and Vanco International signed a product sharing agreement for Prykerchenskyi block on October 19, 2007.
Vanco International ceded its rights and obligations under the product sharing agreement to Vanco Prykerchenska.
The Environmental Protection Ministry canceled Vanco Prykerchenska's license to develop oil and gas deposits at the Black Sea shelf's Prykerchenskyi block on April 25.
In response, Vanco Prykerchenska launched arbitration proceedings against Ukraine.
