In the capital, law enforcement officers detained the deputy director of one of the hospitals, who demanded a $5,000 bribe from a Ukrainian military officer to confirm his disability. The official used her official position to receive money from the defender, who received 28 wounds at the front and was already recognized as disabled of the second category.
Despite the updating of the rules for passing medical examinations to assess the incapacity for work, there are medical workers who continue to work according to "old" and corrupt schemes, shamelessly enriching themselves even from military personnel. This time, the operatives of the Department of Internal Security of the National Police and Kyiv police came into the field of view of the deputy director of the examination of temporary incapacity of one of the capital's medical institutions
It is reported that the serviceman applied to the medical institution to confirm the disability group.
However, instead of a legal procedure, the official began to demand money for processing and sending documents for evaluation by an expert team of doctors.
She assured the man that there seemed to be no reason to refer him for an evaluation, so she promised to prepare a package of documents and arrange for confirmation of health status for $5,000.
Operatives of the DVB and police officers of the Holosiiv police department detained the perpetrator immediately after handing her a bribe in the amount of 210,000 hryvnias. According to the results of the searches, the law enforcement officers seized about 50,000 dollars, official documents, stamps and medical certificates with seals.
The police investigators handed her a suspicion for h. 3 Art. 368 (Acceptance of an offer, promise or receipt of an illegal benefit by an official) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. The official faces up to 10 years in prison
Currently, the involvement of the woman in other illegal schemes is being established, and the persons probably involved in the criminal scheme are being investigated.
