1)one of the ukranian law enforcement structure was interested in taking control over GSC (translation - they wanted to capture the company and have their money/control their direction). - edit5: this isn't true.
2)Grigorovich didn't like how STALKER 2 development was going

SECOND UPDATE: The denial tweet has now been deleted. Hmm. Still trying to get confirmation on this, but its looking like GSC is down. GSCs Dmitri Bourkovski has just tweeted Not PR. GSC closed.
FIRST UPDATE: GSC deny the report on their twitter here. Weve contacted them for a comment.
ORIGINAL: According to this report from Ukrainian news site UkraNews, GSC has been shut down by owner Sergei Grigorovich. The closure was apparently announced to the workforce earlier today. The autotranslation is messy, so if anyone can explain the sixth paragraph which tries to speculate on what was going on accurately, that would be great.
