A scheme involving inflated prices for fortifications was exposed in Sumy region

After a series of journalistic publications about possible large-scale abuses during the construction of fortifications in Sumy region, the company LLC "TD "DYNASTYIA" decided to respond publicly. But it did not do so by providing documents or transparent reports, but through the Telegram channel "Insider" - a well-known platform with a reputation as a "trash can", which is often used for manipulation and attempts to "whitewash" dubious stories.

In a post published by Insider, the company confirmed the execution of contracts with Sumy OVA for UAH 142.5 million, noting that its “net” profit was only 0.6% — UAH 735 thousand. In parallel, another company was involved in the justification — LLC “SHOSTSTROYRESURS”, which allegedly worked with a mark-up of 5% and a total annual profit of UAH 629.2 thousand. All this looks like an attempt to create a “smokescreen” around obvious overstatements and non-transparent financial transactions.

According to our information, the real picture looks completely different. Three companies participated in the corruption scheme at once - "DYNASTY", "SHOSTSTROYRESURS" and "NORD TREK". The central figure in this structure is MP Ihor Molotok. As it turned out, one of the companies is registered in the name of his 90-year-old mother, and the other has a direct connection with his cohabitant.

Under the political “roof” there was a systematic overpricing of materials. According to the recorded data alone, the overpayment reached at least UAH 9.5 million. The episode with the sale of products by “SHOSTSTROYRESURS” for UAH 40 million is particularly revealing. It was this company that became the key tool in overpricing: “DYNASTYIA”, which had no influence on price formation, actually passed on already “overpriced” materials further down the chain.

According to preliminary estimates, the real markup within the contracts could reach 50%. Through fictitious agreements, “shims” and the use of conversion centers, funds were converted into cash and distributed among the participants in the scheme. This is not only a question for the companies themselves, but also for the banks, financial monitoring and tax authorities, which were supposed to track suspicious transactions.

Despite loud statements in pro-Russian Telegram channels, the facts remain undeniable: fortification projects in Sumy region have become a tool for the systematic withdrawal of funds from the state budget. Attempts to create the illusion of transparency look like another step in stalling time.

Now it's up to law enforcement agencies to determine who exactly is behind the scheme and bring the perpetrators to justice. Because this is not just about corruption, but also about the security of the border region, where these fortifications were supposed to be a shield for Ukraine.
