The decision of the district court to approve the plea agreement concluded with the former director of the Cherkasy branch of the Expert and Technical Center "Status" LLC Rimma Bohun, in the case of former People's Deputy Serhiy Skuratovskyi, was approved by the district court on September 12.
In 2019, one of the suspects, Skuratovskyi, approached the appraiser Bohun with a proposal to produce and hand over forged documents on behalf of Expert Technical Center Status LLC for a monetary reward of 50,000 hryvnias. These documents related to the conclusion of a fictitious contract for the assessment of the value of claim rights under credit agreements.
Bohun agreed to this offer and produced a letter from the expert and technical center "Status", in which she offered the cost of evaluation services. The documents were sent to ARMA and the state-owned enterprise "Setam". In addition, she forged several other documents.
Bohun was found guilty under parts 1 and 3 of Article 358 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine, i.e. forgery and sale of a document. The court sentenced her to two years of probation with probation for one year under part 3 of Art. 358 of the Criminal Code and restriction of freedom for one year under Part 1 of Art. 358 of the Civil Code. However, he was released from serving the sentence under Part 1 of Art. 358 of the Civil Code due to the expiration of the statute of limitations.
It should be noted that the anti-corruption court extended the arrest of Skuratovsky, who is suspected of abuse of power and fraud. NABU and SAP announced that he and other persons were suspected of causing more than UAH 112 million in losses to the bank.
According to the investigation, Skuratovskyi organized the illegal alienation of the banking institution's right to claim by producing fictitious documents through an appraiser and their further use.
