The Main Investigation Department of the Security Service of Ukraine, taking into account the materials of the National Agency on Corruption Prevention (NACP), sent an indictment to the Pechersky District Court of Kyiv against the head of the Bucha District Territorial Centre for Recruitment and Social Support, Kyiv Region, on charges of illegal enrichment. He held this position for two years, from August 2022 to August 2024.

Based on the results of monitoring the official's lifestyle, NACP authorised persons found signs of illegal enrichment in his actions.

NACP established that between 2022 and 2024, the officer and his close associates, acting on his instructions, acquired unjustified assets worth over UAH 21 million.

These include:

  • a two-storey residential house in Bucha worth UAH 1.9 million;
  • two neighbouring land plots in the Bucha district worth UAH 436,000 and UAH 387,000 and an unfinished house located on one of them. The cost of construction is over UAH 1.2 million;
  • cash in the amount of 14,464,170 UAH (equivalent to 350,000 USD) discovered by the Security Service of Ukraine during searches of the latter.

In addition, the mother-in-law allegedly received an apartment in Bucha worth almost 1.4 million UAH as a gift from a person associated with the declarant.

During the monitoring of the lifestyle, it was found that during 2022-2023, the ‘owner’ of the property was in the temporarily occupied Luhansk region and later left for one of the EU countries. At the same time, the wife of the declarant acted on her behalf on the basis of a notarised power of attorney when concluding contracts for the sale of assets.

Also, in 2023, the mother of the head of the Bucha Regional Tax Centre and Joint Venture became the ‘owner’ of a 2023 Toyota Corolla and a 2019 Seat Leon, worth over UAH 1 million and UAH 310,000, respectively.

The first vehicle was purchased by the declarant on behalf of his mother at a significantly reduced price of only UAH 149,000.

The agency analysed the income and expenses of the declarant and his close relatives and concluded that they did not have the financial capacity to purchase assets, build and accumulate cash in the amount of UAH 14.5 million (equivalent to 350,000 US dollars), which law enforcement officers found during searches, by legal means.

The officer is charged with committing a criminal offence under Article 368-5 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, ‘Illegal enrichment.’ If proven guilty, he faces imprisonment for a term of five to ten years with deprivation of the right to hold certain positions or engage in certain activities for a term of up to three years.

The case is being prosecuted by the Office of the Prosecutor General.

Disclaimer: In accordance with Part 1 of Article 62 of the Constitution of Ukraine, a person is presumed innocent of a crime and cannot be subjected to criminal punishment until their guilt has been proven in accordance with the law and established by a court verdict.
