The State Bureau of Investigation (Ukrainian: Державне Бюро Розслідувань, romanized: Derzhavne Biuro Rozsliduvan') is a law enforcement agency of Ukraine that investigates criminal proceedings involving law enforcement officers, judges, and high-ranking officials. It is commonly known in Ukraine as DBR (ДБР) or anglicized as SBI. Gradually, the DBR took over the function of preparatory proceedings from the prosecutor's office.[1]

History
The State Bureau of Investigation was established by the law signed by the President of Ukraine on 14 January 2016,[2] and resolution of the CabMin no. 127.[3]
On 10 April 2020 Ukraine's State Bureau of Investigations handed a murder suspicion notice to a former People's Deputy of Ukraine Tetiana Chornovol. Chornovol is accused of "controlling actions of a group of people and directly participating in the arson" of the Party of Regions office building.[4]
On 4 October 2024, the SBI arrested two officials from the Khmelnytskyi Oblast. The two officials worked for the Ukraine's Pension Fund. They are accused of illegally registering men with "non-existent diagnoses" to help them avoid being conscripted. The SBI's search found some $5.2 million USD, Hr 5 million, 300,00 euros, jewellery, 9 cars and ownership of some 30 properties in Ukraine, Turkey, Spain and Austria.[5]
