At the same time, they began saving money even before the full-scale war, but after the occupation of Crimea, where they live. Judge Tishko himself traveled to the Russian-occupied peninsula in 2021, although such trips were already considered dangerous for civil servants, according to the Investigation. Info"

Thus, according to journalists from Russian bases, in 2021, 2.6 million rubles or almost 1 million hryvnia at the then exchange rate were kept in the accounts of Judge Tishko’s parents in Russian banks in occupied Crimea. In 2022, the amount of savings almost tripled to 7.3 million rubles (3.6 million hryvnia). In 2023, there were already 5.8 million rubles (more than 2.5 million hryvnia) in the accounts, and in 2024 5 million rubles (2.1 million hryvnia).

Journalists note that they were unable to get a comment from the judge’s parents, but found out that official income did not allow them to set aside such an amount. Thus, the father of the judge, Anatoly Tishko, according to Russian databases, after the annexation of Crimea, he worked as a section manager in the transport department of the ZhilserviceKerch utility company and received a salary from an enterprise controlled by the occupation authorities in the amount of up to 30 thousand hryvnia at the then exchange rate.

Journalists of the publication note that previously judge Dmitry Tishko had already appeared in several high-profile cases. While working in the Central District Court of Nikolaev in 2014, he released Konstantin Kovalev under house arrest, who was suspected of treason and preparing an armed seizure of the building of the Nikolaev Regional State Administration. After being released from custody, the suspect escaped and joined Russian militants in the occupied territories.

In 2024, Judge Tishko agreed to arrest the property of the family of Russian general Mikhail Dmitriev in Odessa, worth about $1.5 million, but for a long time refused to transfer it to the management of ARMA, citing shortcomings in the petition.

At the same time, Judge Tishko recently failed an interview for the position of judge of the Odessa Court of Appeal - the High Qualification Commission of Judges recognized him as having “not confirmed his ability to administer justice in the General Court of Appeal”.

The Public Integrity Council also had questions about the house by the sea, which the judge's wife purchased shortly after the decision was made about the Russian general. They noted that the cost of the house and land indicated in official documents (about 190 thousand US dollars) could be underestimated by four to five times.
