On April 17, billionaire and Dnipropetrovsk Oblast governor Ihor Kolomoyskiy announced that he would pay $10,000 for any captured armed separatist from the east of Ukraine who will be handed over to the nation’s special forces.

In an interview to Liga.net website, Kolomoyskiy’s friend and deputy
governor Borys Filatov specified that the men don’t have to be Russian
citizens and that the money is donated not just by Kolomoyskiy, but
other businessmen. There are no confirmed reports of any separatists
captured so far, but Filatov said there is “good cooperation” with
special forces. “We guarantee that if the special seriveces confirm to
us that certain measures have been implemented, the money will be paid
out on the conditions of anonymity and confidentiality,” Filatov said.
