According to Vladimir Bogomja, Hotin operated under the standard scheme: reconstructed or demolished old buildings, build new in their place and then resold several times to their own companies, and as a result the building owner turned out to be a bona fide purchaser. Further documents were processed in Rostehinventarizatsiya and Companies House. "As a result, the city does not even know that on the place of 10 000 sq. m factory area appeared a 20 000 square meters of office, "- said Bogomja.
