Inside opulent home of Ukraine's prosecutor-general - PHOTO

Opulent to the extreme, the lavish estate of the Ukraine's ex-prosecutor-general Viktor Pshonka is another example of the extravagant homes the country's former leaders and top officials enjoyed living in.With Pshonka reportedly having fled the country, the photos show the exterior and interior of the home, in the village of Gorenichy outside the capital Kiev, taken on Monday. A Reuters photographer said that with Pshonka gone, journalists and people entered the house to inspect it. Zik reported that along with fugitive former president's Viktor Yanukovich's estate, the properties were having their value assessed by experts in the wake of them going on the run.  This was only one of Pshonka's homes. He also had the use of a hunting lodge around 20 miles away on a compound with two other lodges, one of them for the use of the deposed president Viktor Yanukovych.The hunting estate has been entered by opposition activists, who found guns and removed files, reported www.kyivpost.com. But there was no sign of Pshonka, who is seen as one of the key allies of Yanukovych.Like Yanukovych, he is now on the run and his whereabouts are unclear. He may have left the country and is subject to an arrest warrant issued by the new authorities.The scale of the opulence of homes used by public officials is seen by opposition activists as proof of large-scale corruption among the country's elite, one of the key causes of public anger which led to the protests in Kiev and other cities.At the weekend, hundreds of people poured through the doors of Yanukovich's sprawling winter residence in Mezhyhirya, an hour's drive from Kiev, to gawp at its gaudy wonders. Today it was the turn of Pshonka's house, a treasure trove filled with hundreds of jewelry pieces, arms collections, religious books, old icons and pictures.  Former ex-prosecutor-general Viktor Pshonka held the position from November 4, 2010 until February 22, 2014, when he was ousted by the Verkhovna Rada, the Ukraine parliament, in a no-confidence vote. On February 23 an arrest warrant was issued for Pshonka.Behind by a fort-like gate (pictured below), Pshonka's home awaits sprawling gardens and manicured grass. But the real extravaganza is in the house.It features an indoor swimming pool, plush dinning rooms, grand fire places and is littered with ornate valuables and artwork including many portraits of himself.(dailymail.co.uk)ANN.Az
