Under the procedural guidance of prosecutors from the Office of the Attorney General, a scheme for tax evasion has been uncovered in collaboration with detectives from the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine, through which the state lost over 30 million hryvnias.

It has been established that the director of one of the enterprises did not reflect in the tax reporting the funds received from the Department of Housing and Communal Services of the Donetsk Regional State Administration for the supply of gabion structures – engineering constructions used for protection against missile and artillery shelling. As a result, the budget did not receive over 30 million UAH. The pre-trial investigation has been completed.

An indictment against the suspect has been sent to the Dnipro District Court of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast.

Her actions have been qualified under part 3 of Article 212 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine – tax evasion in particularly large amounts.

Note: according to Article 62 of the Constitution of Ukraine, a person is presumed innocent of committing a crime and cannot be subjected to criminal punishment until their guilt is proven in a lawful manner.
