In Kharkiv, a scheme for embezzling budget funds in a municipal enterprise worth almost UAH 1.8 million was exposed. According to the investigation, the head of the enterprise, together with the deputy head and heads of departments, organized the illegal appointment of men to fictitious positions in order to avoid their mobilization.
According to law enforcement, the "employees" did not perform any real work, but gave officials access to their bank cards, to which their monthly salaries were deposited. As a result, these funds were illegally transferred to officials, who distributed them among themselves.
The investigation is establishing all the circumstances of the case and checking the possible involvement of other employees of the enterprise. The actions of the officials are qualified as embezzlement of budget funds.
Law enforcement officers emphasize that such schemes are subject to severe punishment under current legislation.
