The defendants face up to 12 years in prison.

Today, July 20, investigators of the Main Investigative Department of the National Police of Ukraine with the prompt support of the employees of the Department for the Protection of Public Interest and the State of the National Police reported the suspicion of an official of one of the structural units of the South-Western Railway JSC “Ukrzaliznytsia” in committing a criminal offense, foreseeing of Part 5 of Art. 191 (Appropriation, embezzlement of property or possession of it by abuse of official position) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.

Also, according to this article, in May of this year, investigators reported a suspicion of an accomplice of the defendant.

The police established that officials of one of the structural units of the South-Western Railway JSC “Ukrzaliznytsia”, in order to seize state funds, drew up relevant documents on the execution of construction works in the suburban railway station of Art. “Kyiv-Pasazhyrsky” with a company with signs of fictitiousness. These documents became the basis for the transfer of funds by a separate division of JSC “Ukrzaliznytsia” to the account of a fictitious company in the amount of UAH 750 thousand. In addition, the employees knew for sure that repairs in the waiting areas for passengers by this company would not be carried out.

Currently, the question of choosing a preventive measure for the suspect in the form of detention is being resolved. For illegal transactions, the attacker faces up to 12 years in prison.

Recall: In February of this year, employees of the National Police exposed the illegal activities of employees of one of the structural units of the South-Western Railway JSC “Ukrzaliznytsia” in appropriating state funds allocated for the repair and arrangement of the waiting area for passengers at the suburban railway station. May 27 investigators of the National Police reported suspicions to the heads of fictitious companies, to whose account 4.5 million hryvnias of state funds from the regional branch of “South-Western Railway” JSC “Ukrzaliznytsia” were received.

Police officers carry out further procedural measures aimed at documenting the criminal activities of all defendants.

Procedural leadership is carried out by prosecutors of the Office of the Attorney General.
