KIEV - Ukraine has widened its investigation into the founder of energy company Burisma to include suspicion of embezzling state funds, Prosecutor-General Ruslan Ryaboshapka said on Wednesday .

The prosecutor who has investigated Burisma is Kostiantyn Kulyk, who previously met Trump's personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani to discuss accusations against the Bidens. Ryaboshapka said Zlochevsky was now suspected of the"theft of government funds on an especially large scale," but did not provide evidence or details.

The investigation is effectively on hold, however, because the Ukrainian authorities cannot determine Zlochevsky's whereabouts.Giuliani has previously told Reuters he met Kulyk in Paris.
