Former Pension Fund Head in Kiev is suspected of stealing millions

In Kiev, law enforcement officers exposed a large -scale corruption scheme during the overhaul of the buildings of the Pension Fund of Ukraine. This was reported by the Kyiv City Prosecutor's Office.

The investigation found that an organized group of six people illegally seized budgetary funds when carrying out repairs and purchase of fire -fighting equipment. Among the suspects is the shadow manager of the contractor, technical engineer, two directors of private enterprises and two PFU officials, including the former head of the Pension Fund Main Directorate in Kyiv.

The mechanism of the scheme was typical but effective. For the sake of winning the tenders, the organizer involved controlled companies. Upon receipt of the contracts, the documents of the completed works were falsified: the cost of installation of fire -fighting equipment was artificially overstated. In the future, the acts were signed by officials of the Pension Fund, after which the money was derived from fictitious firms and transferred to cash.

The amount of losses caused to the state, according to the expertise, exceeds UAH 3.6 million.

Currently, all group participants have been informed of suspicion. They are charged with participation in the organized group and seizure of property in particularly large sizes. For such crimes, the Criminal Code of Ukraine provides up to 12 years in prison with confiscation of property.

The investigation is ongoing. Law enforcement officers check whether such schemes were involved in other regional units of the Pension Fund.
