Media Support for Muntyan: Former Assistants of Pastor of Revival Church Describe Buying Commissioned Stories from Stop Corruption and Obozrevatel
Further details of the scandalous pastor's activities.
Pastor of the Revival church Volodymyr Muntyan closely cooperated with the non-profit independent organization Stop Corruption and the online publication Obozrevatel to promote his authority in the media.
As former Muntyan assistants Alina and Pavel Radionov told journalist Vasily Krutchak, Stop Corruption ordered three segments through Roman Bochkala for a total of $30,000. The money was passed to journalist Natalia Polynkova, while Bochkala and Natalia Shcherbina (Maltseva) were responsible for the outcome of these segments.
In addition, Bochkala, who regularly attended events organized by Muntyan, including his birthday celebrations, offered the pastor's assistants to obtain correspondence of his opponents from Viber and WhatsApp. As proof, he showed printed private correspondence of one of the MPs.
Along with Stop Corruption, Muntyan also “paid off” Obozrevatel. The Radionovs say Muntyan allocated €7,700 monthly to be heard in complimentary broadcasts of ObozTV. The cooperation went through Honored Artist of Ukraine Ihor Korzh.
This is already the second exposé about the pastor of Revival in the past month. In June, former members of Vladimir Muntyan's Revival Spiritual Center accused him of beatings, drug use, abuse and orgies.
