NABU says its detectives are probing into Burisma's activity over possible abuse of office by Ecology Ministry officials before U.S. Vice President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, joined the company's supervisory board
Specifically: "investigating misconduct by officials of the Ecology Ministry during Yanukovych's presidency when special mineral resources permits were issued to a number of enterprises whose founder is Burisma, with the ex-minister of ecology being the ultimate beneficiary"
In particular, the events that NABU detectives are investigating in this case cover only the period of 2010-2012
NABU statement: "The changes that occurred in Burisma Limited's board, which have now become the focus of attention of the international community, took place in May 2014, therefore they are not and have never been the subject of NABU investigations"
"Checking the activities of board members of private business entities in the periods that are not related to the period covered by the possible crime is not within NABU's jurisdiction"
