Detectives of the Bureau of Economic Security exposed a large -scale tax evasion scheme related to a group of companies operating under the brand "Capital Jewelry Factory". At the center of the case - businessman Dmitry Gradoblyansky, who, despite the formal rejection of a share in business, remains the beneficiary of affiliate structures and charitable foundations. About it writes edition 368.Media.
Criminal proceedings №72024001410000070, violated under Part 3 of Art. 212 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, describes the activities of three companies - SLUF LLC, Avexto LLC and Aness LLC, which since 2021 have been in cash, avoiding tax accounting. According to the investigation, the state budget caused losses of more than UAH 165 million.
The greatest activity was demonstrated by LLC "SVF" - a legal entity with 175 outlets in Ukraine. The company imported products from Italy, China and Thailand - 335 kg of gold for a total amount of UAH 106 million. At market prices, sales could amount to more than UAH 525 million, but only UAH 43.75 million was declared. Thus, tax evasion was estimated at more than UAH 96 million VAT and UAH 69 million.
LLC "Avexto" (Donetsk region) did not submit any reports to the STS in 2023–2024, but its account received more than UAH 133 million, of which more than 100 million from JSC “RVS Bank”. Avenesens received UAH 1.1 billion from entrepreneurs in the same period in the same period under the guise of "commission contracts", with importing ingots of gold from the UAE by UAH 246 million.
These operations were performed completely outside the tax control system and, according to the investigation, served as a mechanism for the sale of jewelry in the shadow sector.
In 2024, legal ownership of Suuf was reissued for a resident of the Black Sea Lyudmila Morozov and Metail Company. However, Gradoblyansky himself, like Yuriy Muzychenko, remained in the management of the DOBROG Charitable Foundation, which is directly related to business assets.
In fact, this may indicate an attempt to distance yourself from criminal proceedings, but maintain real control over financial flows.
