For an investor, the construction of a new Kiev detention center outside the city may cost $ 70-80 million, taking into account the demolition of the old SIZO building and the erection of a new building in its place. This was told in an interview with UNN by the Deputy Minister of Justice of Ukraine Denis Chernyshov.

"If we speak from the point of view of the economy, the project, for example, for the Kiev SIZO for the investor will cost (that is, the construction of a new SIZO, the demolition of the old building and the construction of a new building instead of the Kyiv SIZO on that site) where 70-80 million dollars, and on time it will take somewhere 7-8 years ", - said the Deputy Minister of Justice.

The official noted that in Ukraine there is no such internal investor who would have had the money in such quantity and with such a horizon.

"Foreign investors, too, given the country's rating, and the fact that we have military operations, then, let's say, not everyone wants to invest in such a risky situation. But, nevertheless, we are negotiating with the Chinese, by the way. Now some more interesting relations have started, "he stressed..

In addition, according to D. Chernyshov, they began negotiations with local authorities on the transfer of SIZOs outside the cities.

"We started negotiations with city administrations. By the way, we have held negotiations with the Lviv administration, with Odessa. And they planned for the near future with the Kyiv administration. Maybe for them this project is interesting, "he said..

According to the official, the transfer and construction of a new SIZO outside of cities is a great social project.

"And if earlier the cities did not have money, today due to decentralization the cities have money. So why not send them to build such an important object? At the same time, if we are talking about a remand center, then most of the people who are there, they are local. Because basically there are those people who lived there, "he added..
