The Slobozhanska District Prosecutor's Office, based, inter alia, on the materials of a full verification of the declaration conducted by the National Agency on Corruption Prevention (NACP), has notified a member of a settlement council in the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast of a suspicion of false declaration totalling over UAH 13.2 million.
Based on the results of the full verification of her annual declaration for 2023 and the repeated full verification of the declaration, the NACP established, among other things, that the official failed to specify information regarding her own:
-
debts to three individuals exceeding UAH 4.5 million, which were used, among other purposes, for the acquisition of 3 apartments and 12 land plots;
-
funds for a UAH 6.2 million loan to a legal entity;
-
expenditures exceeding UAH 2 million for the acquisition of two apartments in a residential complex in the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.
Furthermore, the official provided false information regarding her personal income totalling over UAH 345 thousand.
During the verification, it was also established that the official acquired ownership of a Porsche Cayenne vehicle for UAH 3 thousand, which is 9 times less than the price paid for it by the previous owner, who had purchased it just a few months prior to selling it to the council member.
The official has been notified of a suspicion of committing an offence under Part 2 of Article 366-2 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine (knowingly declaring false information).
The pretrial investigation is being conducted by investigators of Police Department No. 4 of the Dnipro District Police Department No. 2 of the Main Directorate of the National Police in the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.
Note: pursuant to Article 62 of the Constitution of Ukraine, a person is presumed innocent of committing a crime and shall not be subjected to criminal punishment until their guilt is proved through legal procedure and established by a court verdict of guilty.
