Former Presidential Office chief Andriy Yermak consulted astrologers and numerologists before making important state decisions, including personnel appointments, Ukrainska Pravda reports, citing its sources.

According to the outlet’s sources in the president’s circle, anti-corruption agencies, as part of their investigations, confirmed the fact that Yermak had sought such services. The report says these consultations may have taken place ahead of key decisions at the state level.

The publication also notes that journalists sent a request for comment to Andriy Yermak, but had received no reply by the time the article was published.

The report appeared amid discussion of the NABU and SAPO investigation known as “Midas,” in which Yermak is said to figure.

Earlier, it was reported that during searches linked to Yermak, investigators found a voodoo doll and other occult items.
