The National Agency on Corruption Prevention (NACP), based on the results of lifestyle monitoring, found signs of a corruption criminal offense under Article 368-5 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine in the Deputy Head of the Dnipro District Police Department of the Main Department of the National Police in Dnipro Region - Head of the Criminal Police Department, which indicate his illegal enrichment of more than UAH 14 million.
These facts were established in cooperation with the Third Investigation Department of the Investigation Department of the Territorial Administration of the State Bureau of Investigation located in Poltava.
The facts include the acquisition of:
- a land plot
- a residential building
- a 2017 PORSCHE MACAN car.
In particular, it was established that the employee's mother-in-law purchased a land plot, the value of which, according to the contract, is UAH 37,500. She subsequently registered the ownership of a residential building, which was built during 2022. This is confirmed by documents obtained during investigative actions within the framework of criminal proceedings, information about which was entered into the Unified Register of Pre-trial Investigations.
It was also found out that the Porsche Macan, the formal owner of which is the father-in-law of a police officer, was actually used by the official's wife.
